BUILD A BUSINESS
AND A LIFE YOU LOVE
CHINA BUSINESS | E-COMMERCE | PERSONAL GROWTH
Hi, I'm Simon.
Entrepeneur, Mentor, Speaker
We are all doing the best we can, but still it feels like we are never reaching our full potential. Obviously your surroundings are of influence, but also your selftalk and selfcare. I'm here to help you find the best version of your business, your team and yourself.
Every business is limited by the skills of the individuals running the business. I have helped tens of companies and business owners over the years to recognize and maximize their potential. These have grown from zero into 7 and 8 and 9 figure business, but above all it has created the leaders of the future. Leaders that care about the journey and appreciate the people that support them to get there.
To me the pillars of success are mindset, proximity, and awareness. These have been the core foundations of my success in building multi-million dollar businesses as well as expansive projects related to China. During the past 15 years I worked specifically within Cross-border Trade, Logistics and E-commerce.
​My journey has been a rollercoaster such as any entrepreneur will experience. To fully enjoy a rollercoaster is to accept and enjoy the journey. We are always progressing, never arriving at just one destination. To be able to reach this mindset it took me years of practice, but this doesn't have to be yours as well. There are short cuts which starts with working on yourself.
Each dream starts with actions, but these actions must be properly executed. My mentorship program is built to find your path, De Raadt Way.

Public Speaking
Although most recent speaking event are related to Logistics, E-commerce Supply chain and China Business the goal has always been towards motivational speaking opportunities. From having stage fright to becoming a paid speaker. From having nothing to becoming an established entrepreneur. From giving up a promising consulting career to moving to China. From being single to a dedicated husband and father. Below a selection of the public speaking accomplishments.

Mentor Program
Simon spents a lot of time on developing himself. Mostly on how to become more successful as a leader and (maybe even more important) more useful as a global citizen. We all need some help, some mentoring or a little push to reach our full potential. His newly launched mentor program is called De Raadt Way. A tailored approached for business owners to find their true path. Most are chasing material success and once achieved loose all purpose. True purpose comes from within. Knowing who you are and what you are here to do is what you will discover on...
