De Barros: Live in Fourways. Work in Bryanston. Play all the time!
De Barros: Developing the Lamelle Research Laboratories brand, which this year celebrates its 10th birthday. But most importantly, my two awesome kids.
De Barros: After working in the pharma industry for 10 years, I decided it was time to open my own business. Lamelle was born in my garage and 10 years later we are a leader in the skincare market. I have been most fortunate to travel the world in my 20 years.
De Barros: My children, my marriage to my beautiful wife, my huskies, and my cats. I love travelling, and enjoy a few rounds of golf, a morning on the bike and watching a few matches of cricket.
De Barros: All the gorgeous ladies I get to work with – I’m a man!
De Barros: We could do with more men in the industry – it is incredibly female-driven. But it takes a real man to compete and sell in this market! Nevermind pink, real men sell skincare products.
De Barros: Check the daily sales, communicate with everyone in the company, make sure every customer is paying us, and possibly the most important activity is to make sure we are all still having fun.
De Barros: My iPhone – everything is done through it.
De Barros: Hopefully Lamelle and our customers.
De Barros: These questions and an export contract; plus we have just launched two new products we are very proud of: Helase 50 and Dermaheal Ultra Renewal.
De Barros: Give answers that matter, create confidence, and finally solve problematic skin concerns.
De Barros: In the mornings – in the shower.
De Barros: Definitely not singing, but I love dancing (although I don’t think I am an expert).
De Barros: A bit of both, but I try and keep up with the ever-changing technology landscape.
De Barros: Pictures, pictures, and more pictures – of my family, dogs and lots of prank pictures from my mates.
De Barros: Have a clear plan and don’t deviate from it.
Simple as that. Find out what De Barros does on www.lamelle.co.za and follow Lamelle on Twitter and Facebook for more.
