Rupert Bowling Quick Facts

A
graduate of Aston University of Birmingham
where Rupert Bowling studied Mechanical Engineering. He began his working career
in a local manufacturing company, learning the true cut and thrust of
business. After 4 years, he moved to work for Michelin Tyres as an Industrial
Engineer. This was where he learnt more about the systems of improvement, Quality
and productivity. Just in Time manufacture was the buzz, and Duran was
considered the Guru on Quality.

His
next step was to move to the commercial site of Michelin. It was then known in
the industry that Michelin spent 16 weeks to train their sales staff, but it
only took 14 weeks to train a New York
cop, to go on the streets with a Gun in their hand. This intensive training was
a superb stepping stone to Rupert next career, which was to move back into the
Company he started at, but with the idea of a subsequent management buy out. Fortunately
for Rupert at the time, this did not happen, and the company was sold on, and
was bankrupt in 12 months.

This
was 1999, and the web was an idea still. Everyone was on Dial up, and
competition was low. Search Engines could still be manipulated by changing the
meta tags www.EshopOne.co.uk was born,
with the plan to sell everything to everyone. By 2001, the market was still
comparatively small, and Rupert concentrated his efforts on building a Menswear
Brand online, Building www.EshopOne.com to
service the growing online need for Mens Suits,
at Internet prices.

The
success of his own business, has lead him to be involved in a number of
exciting Websites on a Consultancy basis, and as one of the first members of
WebmasterWorld, has the honour to know some of the great names in Web search,
as the industry has matured.
