Lynton Black - Lynton Black Media
Black started the business as an extension of his greatest hobbies within the media field which has clearly proven to be a very successful venture. Despite his success, there have of course been barriers to overcome during the process, such as his initial struggle to afford imperative design software. This subsequently introduced him to the challenges which almost all growing businesses face; finance and capital.
The creative freedom which comes with running your own company is what Black enjoys most. However, Black states that the reality of this freedom is not always how people perceive it to be; “although I may be able to decide when to get up in the morning, it does not mean that I necessarily get to decide when I can go home at night!”
It was Lynton’s former teachers and mentors which inspired him to start up his own business… along with the salary!
