[QUOTE="Lauren, post: 5510, member: 1107"] Hi, I was wondering if I could have any advice or guidance on how to approach this Hogan Lovells application question. [U]Sustaining a successful and profitable practice requires both commercial awareness and innovative thinking. Tell us about something that you have done that shows you have a strong innovative or entrepreneurial spirit. [/U] I've pasted below how I was thinking of approaching it but I am not sure whether it fully demonstrates what they are looking for. Any advice would be appreciated!:) I demonstrated a strong entrepreneurial spirit in setting up my own business with three friends providing face painting and glitter tattoo services at children’s parties. As a new business, it was crucial we developed a strategy to establish a client base in an already crowded market. I was responsible for managing the range of glitter tattoos and face paints we offered, ensuring we had sufficient stock and designs which would appeal to every child. I did this by maintaining a spreadsheet which kept a record of our stock which was updated following each event. I also worked closely with our customers, requesting feedback on events which I would act upon at our future events.
