Stephen Anson
Co-Founder & CEO
Steve, a father of four adult children, resides in the coastal city of Perth, Western Australia, with his Italian wife, Rebecca.
Once a professional musician, Steve's life was immersed in melodies and harmonies, reminiscent of Billy Joel's famous line, "Sing us a song, you're the piano man…"
However, after being humbled by the world-class London music scene in the early '90s, Steve found himself in search of a "real job". By chance, he entered the recruitment industry and gradually climbed the ranks, eventually leading a thriving consultancy.
In the early 2000s, ready for a fresh challenge, Steve contemplated the ideal attributes of a new career, which included:
1. A home-based work environment so he could witness his children grow up and cherish family moments.
2. A role in the rapidly evolving digital landscape, harnessing the internet's transformative power.
3. A position within the healthcare sector, aligning with his passion for health and wellness.
4. Opportunities to explore the world and satisfy his wanderlust (30 countries and counting).
“I think my mind went to work on a blueprint to make this happen," Steve reflects with a smile.
Then, providence intervened when Steve met Bill Esteb. United by their shared faith and business interests, they launched Perfect Patients in 2005.
Today, Steve and Bill lead a global team of dedicated professionals who serve chiropractors, dentists, and Pilates enthusiasts under their brands: Perfect Patients, Smile Marketing, and Pronto Pilates.
In moments of introspection, Steve finds wisdom in the words of theologian G.K. Chesterton, who, when asked, "What's wrong with this world?" simply replied, "I am."
Steve credits all success in life to his faith in Jesus Christ. And credits all failures to himself (and God’s providence in humbling Steve so that he might learn and grow).
“All things work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose." ~ Romans 8:28
