The two twentysomething women founded recruitment agency, Staff It, and in seven years have built up the business to an annual turnover of more than $3 million. “The profit will flow if your intentions are right, because I think good attracts good,” Ms Brown said.

Craig Lovett founded a cleaning business in 1987 which has grown to become the multinational cleaning firm Cleanevent, responsible for some of Sydney’s biggest venues and events, including the SCG, Telstra Stadium and the Royal Easter Show. Cleanevent now employs 1000 full-time staff, with offices in the UK and the US. It boasts annual revenues of $50 million, excluding earnings from major events such as last year’s Athens Olympics. Justin Herald’s $15 million fortune started with a $50 loan from his brother. The 34-year-old entrepreneur now works to inspire the next wave of Sydney millionaires. Mr Herald’s business began 10 years ago with four printed T-shirts which mushroomed into a clothing empire.
