We’re pleased to bring you an exclusive interview with WiFi Plug Owner and Director, Entrepreneur and Apprentice Candidate, Leon Doyle!

Q: Has being on The Apprentice helped you in business?
A: I think it has massively helped me, you learn a lot when you’re there. Whilst it can portray you quite poorly at times, it is a really positive experience. You are surrounded by intelligent people and you pick up a lot of things that you didn’t know before which you take with you. I’m certainly very glad I went on it.

Q: What would be your advice for anybody wanting to go on the show?
A: I think it’s had it’s day. We got 12M viewers every week the following year they only got 6M but i’d still do it all over again. The exposure is a bonus, the tasks are what made it for me.

Q: What is the best, and the worst, part of The Apprentice?
A: The worst part is probably the crazy schedule! It’s pretty much all go all the time. The best part, I would say, is the challenge of it all. The tasks are really stimulating and I loved the different challenges you were presented with.

Q: How is it living in that house with a group of people that, on screen at least, don’t always get along that well?
A: It’s alright, actually. You don’t have that much downtime so you don’t really get that much of a chance to fall out with people!

Q: What was your biggest regret from doing the show?
A: Erm… that I didn’t win! Actually it’s not that i didn’t win, it’s that i didn’t come second! Winning means splitting 50% of the business with Shuggz, I couldn’t think of anything worse!

Q: Tell us about WiFi Plug, how did it start?
A: My Girlfriend constantly left her hair straighteners on, one day we came home in time to save it from burning down. It got me thinking about ideas and i was actually going to sell it to a leading hair straightening firm but realised it had the ability to covr a multitude of applications so i flew to China met with some engineers and factories and 12 months later it was selling.

We’re very pleased to introduce our brand new packaging, as you can see below, it’s quite swanky. With more information included on the box, which is also more robust than previous iterations, it’s just another one of many improvements we’re constantly making to WiFi Plug.
