From Music to Millions: How Simon Built a Property Empire in Just Three Years

Simon’s journey from the unpredictable world of the music industry to becoming a successful property investor is nothing short of inspiring. Once reliant on the ups and downs of music for income, Simon decided to take control of his financial future after discovering the potential of property investment. Specializing in Rent-to-Rent, HMOs (House in Multiple Occupation), Serviced Accommodation, and the BRRRR (Buy, Refurbish, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) strategy, Simon has built an impressive portfolio and a thriving business in just three short years.

Simon’s property journey began when a friend introduced him to the world of HMOs—a strategy that caught his attention for its cash flow potential. With a desire to provide financial stability for his growing family, Simon dove headfirst into the property market. The result? A property business with a turnover exceeding £1 million and a portfolio valued at over £2.5 million—all funded by the cash flow generated through Rent-to-Rent deals.

But Simon’s story doesn’t stop there. After transforming his own life, Simon has made it his mission to help others achieve financial freedom. He launched the Creative Cashflow Community, where he shares his unique investment strategies and insights with budding property investors. Through daily content, mentorship, and practical advice, Simon empowers others to follow in his footsteps and create multiple income streams through property.

For those looking to escape the limitations of traditional 9-to-5 jobs or unreliable income sources, Simon’s success offers a blueprint for turning passion into profit. By mastering creative property strategies, Simon has shown that financial independence is within reach for anyone willing to take the leap.

Whether you're a seasoned investor or just starting out, Simon’s story proves that with the right mindset and strategy, you can achieve financial freedom in record time.

HOW MUCH DOES A CORPORATE VIDEO COST?

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY AND HOW YOU WANT TO SAY IT, BUT WHAT IS YOUR BUDGET?

How much will my film cost? Is inevitably our first question. The unhelpful answer is of course, how long is a piece of string? You may want a simple one-day, one-man shoot with a quick one-day edit, and you can probably get that for under a grand if you’re not too fussy and it really is just a one-day edit. Or you might want an ambitious creative concept, with lots of pre-production followed by a complex week-long shoot, filming on a RED camera, and lots of complicated compositing and animated graphics. And that could be £20 - £30 000. Or more.

WHY YOU HIRE A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER

So here’s the cruel irony. Even though I know I possess the kind of staggering youthful good looks that make people catch their breath and drop their falafel when they meet me in real life, on camera I look like a laboratory experiment where the mad scientist has injected the DNA of Brendan Gleason and Charles Manson into a old potato

And being self-conscious - oh my crooked smile, oh my seventy-eight chins - means I forget that my delicious eyes are like limpid emerald pools you could drown in, and I project discomfort - In short, I don’t pose well. Maybe you do. Millions of others dont. And some of them work for you.

TESTIMONIAL VIDEOS, WHAT ARE THEY GOOD FOR?

WHY THE BEST WAY TO SELL YOUR PEOPLE IS TO USE YOUR PEOPLE

Back in the mists of time, every corporate video had an ambitious narrative, like a storyboarded long-form commercial, a piece of expensive, styled, authored creative in its own right. These films do still get made and they are great. I make them myself, though more usually I work in short form. Is this always how you want to disseminate your information, your brand, your company? Sometimes yes. Just as sometimes you want to Ronseal it, to say it like it is. But do you want to be that blunt? Again probably not.

WHY SPEND MONEY ON A PROFESSIONAL VIDEOGRAPHER?

WHAT VALUE DOES A PROFESSIONAL VIDEOGRAPHER ACTUALLY BRING TO THE PARTY?

Sure so this is where you get sold all the corporate and advertising cliches about brand identity and adding value to your message and blah blah blah. And you may not be thinking in those terms, but rather about just demonstrating something seemingly quite simple.

CAN ONE PERSON SHOOT PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY AT AN EVENT?

YOU NEED A PHOTOGRAPHER , AND YOU ALSO WANT A CORPORATE VIDEOGRAPHER, BUT YOUR BUDGET PAYS FOR ONLY ONE OF THEM - WHAT DO YOU DO?

The short answer is of course some people can do both. The challenge is finding someone who is genuinely good at both, which is not as easy as it sounds. There are plenty of great photographers out there who can’t really shoot video. There are some good videographers out there, though they are no nearly so easy to find, and some of them are competent photographers too.

WHY EITHER EVERYONE OR NO ONE NEEDS TO WORRY ABOUT AI

With the announcement that China-based NetDragon Websoft says it is the first company in the world to appoint an AI as its CEO only to see stocks soar, naturally it isn’t just struggling bloggers and graphic designers who are worried about the implication of AI

This is where I’d like to reassure you that climate change ravaging the planet and making the lives of those few who survive the catastrophic flooding, wild fires and raging hurricanes that are predicted absolute hell.
