Introducing 180 Performance

By Khan Porter

Guy: What’s this 180 Performance thing I hear you ask?

Good question! When Stu and I first started out, we basically pointed ourselves roughly in the direction we wanted to go and then rolled with it along the way. Even though we’re not too hung up on the outcome, we’ve always asked ourselves these questions:

  1. How can we add value to our customers? and
  2. How can we continue to improve 180 Nutrition as a company?

I’m feeling in a slightly reflective mood as another year almost comes to an end. Due to a few personal circumstances (which has really hammered home to me that we should be making the most of it – life), I felt it was a good time to share with you the steps that I take and continue to take as I move towards one of the values that I defend to the end – Do what you love. And the great thing about this is that it far outweighs any moniterial value, it just so happens if you have the courage to follow through, the money begins to turn up and you  earn a living by doing the stuff you love best.
