Chapters
This is a day in the life of a private jet broker. I started the day by doing some emails. I get over 1,000 of these a day. Then Hugo needed some advice on a deal he's working on. My team come to me for guidance often. We then had a general catch-up. Communication is key. These deals take months. We have to overcome hurdle after hurdle. It's good to make sure we're all on the same page. My head of design, Matt, had to run some drafts by me. We've been working hard on a big project that will be shared soon. I then had a quick lunch—salad—while doing more emails. I'm checking these constantly. Immediately. If I don't, they'll pile up in the thousands. I took a few more phone calls. To end the day, I had a meeting with this young man. He shared how we could expand our social media presence to India, something we're considering. We get hundreds of millions of views from there at the moment. That was a day in the life of me, Steve Varsano. Follow me to see more.
