The Secret That Makes This Power Couple Work

Every year, many couples take on the challenge of starting a business together. For some, it is the best decision they have ever made, which is the case for LINDSAY AND SHELLEY MENTOR.

Whilst working together can be stressful, this power couple, Lindsay and Shelley Mentor have managed to create their perfect balance between business and their relationship. As business partners they not only get to spend more time together, but also get to pursue their passion for success whilst sharing the common goals that drives them.

‘Our secret is that which very few people share, not only are we best friends ,we are equally life and business partners. We live together, work together, dream together and build success together, this is essentially what makes us who we are,’ says Lindsay.

Both Shelley and Lindsay started out in the corporate environment. Shelley pursued a career in the financial industry directly after school, while Lindsay entered the retail industry firstly with the Clicks Group and then moved into the furniture industry with the JD Group.

After spending many years in Corporate South Africa and having attained senior positions in their respective industries, both of them decided to pursue their journey and dreams as Entrepreneurs.

“I definitely felt stuck having spent years in the same industry and the time had come to start something new, something that I could call my own.” Shelley says.

The transition from having a corporate job to owning and managing our own business was not an easy one, but a period that moulded them for the road ahead.
