Hi I'm

Michel Cuschieri

and I am a business DOORMAN

How can I help you?

about you

I believe in being different and helping you be different too! So rather than using my website to only talk about me and what I do, let’s start with YOU!


Why? Because I believe, that having an effective and helpful Coach or Mentor, is just as much about you too. Your beliefs, your aspirations, your values and who you are as a person.


To be productive in your time together with me, or any other coach for that matter, there needs to be a good fit, a connection, maybe have things in common that we like and are passionate about and most importantly share common VALUES.


Follow these 4 simple steps to find out IF and HOW I can help you on your journey to greater success.


(Why 4? It’s the square of 2! 😉)

1 - Are you READY

The first step is about honestly answering a few questions to yourself:


  • Do I want to grow my business with clients I actually like working with?
  • Is having more time to spend doing the things I enjoy out of work, with my family and friends important to me?
  • Do I sometimes feel that running my business is a bit lonely?
  • Could I benefit from having someone to share my ideas, concerns and successes with?
  • Am I willing to listen to professional advice and take action to implement what I learn?
  • Am I open to trying new ways to successfully manage the business?
  • Can I relate to what I have read and heard about Michael Cuschieri? 


If you kept answering YES, then I have solutions for you.


2 - This is ME

You need to know more about me, my story and WHY I have a passion to help people like you.


But first read steps 3 and 4!

3 - time to listen

To find out if there is a good fit for each other, I need to discover more about you. It would be totally unprofessional to suggest or offer you any guidance and advice without knowing more.


I’ve opened my door for you, so your next step is for us to have an initial 30 minutes phone/zoom call with me. It will be an opportunity for me to listen to find out more about you, your business and your specific needs and confirm there is a good fit for us both.

4 - taking action

Without a VISION, a strategic PLAN and written ACTIONS to take, it will be harder for you to achieve the SUCCESS you deserve.


As my inspirational leader Albert Einstein once said,

“Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results.”


Now is the time to try something different to help you achieve better results.


If you have said YES, read my story, are coachable and are willing to invest time in yourself, then I will have solutions for you. It’s now time to TAKE ACTION!

This is ME

I was born in Malta and I remember a time when I was 10 years old and my parents decided to move to the UK. This was a big change for us all from living in the family guest house business, my parents ran by the sea, to initially living in 2 rooms at the top of a guest house in Victoria, London. My family’s journey was not straight forward but my parents ensured my brother and I never forgot our Maltese roots, which we are both very proud of.


This forms a small, yet very important part of my WHY and is something I am always willing to share more details on. Just book “ A Coffee On Me” call to find out more.


I'm married to Mari and are proud of our two boys Edward and Stefan both in their 20's. I enjoy travelling, seeing new places and absorbing the culture, especially in warmer climates! You will also see me on a tennis court, golf course and underwater scuba diving. Whilst I follow football, you will have often found me on the rugby touchlines watching Saracens too.


I am also proud to be a Trustee for the charity In Sue’s Name, helping to raise awareness, funds and support for anyone suffering from the effects of brain tumours. Our target is to raise £1 million by 2027 in order to provide crucial research funds to support the Blizard Institute in Whitechapel – the Brain Tumour Research Centre of Excellence at Queen Mary University of London.

How I HELP

I am the Managing Director of mc square marketing, a marketing agency I established in 2004, to help businesses stand out from their competition through creative marketing ideas that deliver results. My team’s experience in hospitality marketing, as well as other fields, has helped us achieve success for both our clients and ourselves, including winning the National Fish & Chips Award for Marketing Innovation with Poppies Fish & Chips Restaurants.


Prior to mc square I was fortunate enough to have had a successful career in Marks & Spencer, spanning 20 years. I went from being a Saturday Sales Assistant to my last position as Head of International Marketing for the International Franchise Group. This was a journey I am truly grateful for and I believe lay the foundations for my learning and success.


My other passion is getting results from building strong business relationships with people and have been active in BNI (Business Network International) for over 17 years, 11 years of these also as a Director Consultant in the UK and Ireland. As a member of the BNI Director Training team I have also had the privilege to deliver business development skills workshops internationally. I love nothing more than sharing my experience, knowledge and success stories of referral marketing activities and seeing delegates absorb the content and ready to put it into practice.

“Everything should be made as simple as possible,

but not simpler.”

The LIGHT BULB Moment

In 2017 I travelled to California to get a full understanding of the amazing Referral Marketing coaching programme of Asentiv. Having fully immersed myself in what was on offer, directly with the founders of the business, I was also then accredited as an Associate Coach.


I returned to the UK “buzzing” with the huge learnings and potential to help others, as well as applying the principles and process to my own business. Wow! I actually thought I knew how to network effectively, but I soon realised I was only touching the surface and possibilities.


I built my strategic referral marketing plan and I now understood the power of my ECC (Emotional Charged Connection), I created a clear Vision and Mission and was able to grow my business through the network of amazing people I had around me. I now get referrals I actually am looking for and ones that are 99.9% converted!


In addition, a key personal action that is seriously contributing to helping me achieve my Vision and my further success, was the decision to invest in a business coach for myself! Thank you Phillip Burton.

The DOORMAN

Many people often call me the Einstein of Marketing, which I humbly appreciate. However, I see myself simply as a Doorman. A business doorman to help open doors of opportunity for my trusted network of people, who I chose to have around me and engage with. These people will also share in my core values:


FAMILY | LOYALITY | CUSTOMER SATISFACTION | PASSION | CREDIBILITY


Why the Doorman expression? This goes back to my Papa working in the hotel industry and how he too would always go the extra mile to help his guests. Ask me more about this in our discovery call.


It is through this approach and my own business and life experiences, both good and not so good, just being realistic, that I am thankful to be able to further help business owners maximise their opportunities, in whatever way best suits them as an individual. To open doors that lead to working with the type of clients you actually want and like to work with and just as important, to ensure you have time to do the things you really want to do and enjoy doing!


Let’s face it, I’m sure you didn’t decide to set up your own business to work even harder than when you may have been employed? Do you really want to work more hours and be more stressed and just work, work, work and not have time to spend with your family and friends?

“Anyone who has never made a mistake,

has never tried anything new.”

What Doors of OPPORTUNITY will I open for you

With over 20 years of marketing experience, I especially love helping other creative marketing professionals including social media managers, digital marketing consultants, printers, copywriters, graphic designers, web designers, SEO consultants and marketing consultants


I am of course already working with professionals in other industries who are also serious about success, willing to invest in themselves and begin to get results through:


  • One on one private Business Coaching
  • Group Business Coaching
  • Mentoring
  • Strategic Social Media Coaching
  • Business Development Workshops
  • Business Networking Workshops 


Whilst my speciality and focus is on Referral Marketing, Networking and Social Media, everything I offer is intrinsically based around the importance and power of Building Relationships. Strong, Deep, Meaningful ones and most importantly, with the RIGHT PEOPLE.


Ultimately, the most important thing for me is to be able to add value to someone, help them create their Vision, take Action to make it a reality and see them reap the benefits of their investment in me.

The Results

I've known Michael for several years through a variety of networking events and recently attended his Marketing Referral training course. Inciteful and interesting! He is a genuinely kind, compassionate and successful individual whom is an excellent example of a 'people person' building long lasting relationships. If you are considering working with an experienced business coach and expert marketeer I would highly recommend Michael.

Michael has a deep knowledge of and boundless enthusiasm for his subject matter. He gave me a truly inspiring coaching session.

I had a one-off coaching session to help me understand and promote my web site. His teaching was clear and relevant, his style professional but comfortable and the information made available was useful. Many thanks Michael

I attended one of Michael's workshops last week and found it to be an interesting and rewarding experience. Understanding that your ECC (Emotionally Charged Connection) is critical in Referral Marketing, as is knowing how to identify the various 'rings' of your Referral Network. Michael provided some interesting facts & figures to help with understanding our goals and the impact on successfully applying more Referral Networking skills. I would recommend anyone who wants to leverage Referral Marketing (and who doesn't ?) - to book on one of Michael's sessions.

Just took part in one of Michael's workshop. Really useful: practical, meaningful, and (super importantly) easy to put into practice. Definitely worth attending.
