Michael Williams is an 19 year old University Student from Cheshire, North West England, he is the co-founder and Managing Director of Entirety Media Ltd, a UK based marketing company.
From the age of 11 Michael has been very interested in the Internet, websites, computers and business. After starting high school, he made friends with people who shared the same interests, including Phil Golding. Michael and Phil spent a considerable amount of their spare time building and developing websites. Phil later went on to help develop scripts for one of Michael’s website in the summer of 2010.
At the age of 12, Michael began a GCSE course in ICT, 2 years earlier than his peers. After completing the course at the age of 14 Michael was awarded a Diploma in Digital Applications (DiDA). Michael finished school at the age of 16 with 4 A*s and 3 As at GCSE and a Pass at DiDA (Equivalent to 4 C Grade GCSEs). A year later he completed his BTEC National Diploma for IT Practitioners with a Distinction and 2 Merits. In August 2011 Michael graduated from Sixth Form at the University Church of England Academy with an A* and an A in Business Studies and an A and 2 Bs in IT. Michael has since moved on to study Business Management and Entrepreneurship at The University of Chester where he has played a significant role in the formation of the university’s first enterprise society, aimed at promoting leadership and entrepreneurship amongst the business leaders of the future.
In the Autumn of 2009 Michael formed a Partnership with Laura Doggett called Wicked Online Marketing after struggling to find a job during the summer holidays after leaving school. He built up great working relationships with other young entrepreneurs, including Matt Lovett from Wow Media. From the money that the business had built up during the Autumn and Winter, Wicked Online Marketing bought a failing cashback site called Free Coin in February 2010.
After just 2 months Free Coin had turned over 100 times the price it was bought for and it has gone from strength to strength ever since. Michael helped lead the business into new areas and successfully launched an email marketing arm for Wicked Online Marketing. In January 2011 Wicked Online Marketing became Entirety Media Ltd and Michael became the Managing Director.
The company has gone from strength to strength, building more partnerships within the local area as well as nationally and internationally.
