I have been able to 10X the growth of my business every year for the past 22 years being an entrepreneur. Suffered badly during the pandemic with lots of challenges in both business and personal. I survived. I decided that I was not going to go through the whole process again to rebuild. This time around I was not going to grow my business anymore with just 10X. I was going to scale it 1000X. The question is how? It took me some time to figure it out. I was inspired and the show is about to start. 24 months. The clock starts on 1 July 2025. Welcome to a brand new PORTMAN Education Group. We are grateful. 🙏🔥💯💪

Thank you Mr Ernie for sharing such an inspiring and powerful message. Reading your journey of perseverance and bold vision for the future truly motivates us as educators and team members of PORTMAN Education Group. Your unwavering determination to not just rebuild, but to scale 1000X, sets a strong example for all of us.
Setting a 1000x target isn’t just about ambition—it’s about completely rethinking what’s possible. The shift from growth to scale feels like a call to move beyond comfort zones and challenge the limits we’ve set for ourselves or our industries. It’s rare to see such bold thinking laid out so clearly.
Your story is a testament to perseverance, strategic thinking, and unwavering belief. Rebuilding after the pandemic isn’t just about recovering — it’s about redefining the future. PORTMAN Education Group’s next chapter sounds promising. Here’s to a powerful 24 months ahead 👏
Cant wait to see all the upcoming new adventure and for upcoming amazing new things have been done🦾💪
That's a powerful and inspiring declaration. It speaks to your resilience, ambition, and vision for the future, Mr Ernie.
From 10X to 1000X – what a powerful mindset shift! Wishing you continued success and growth on this new journey. 🙌

What a powerful and inspiring comeback story. After 22 years of consistent growth and navigating through the toughest challenges, especially during the pandemic, you’ve chosen not just to rebuild, but to rise even higher. The decision to scale 1000X isn’t just bold, it’s visionary. This marks the beginning of a game-changing era for PORTMAN Education Group. Congratulations and thank you Mr. Ernie.
Inspiring vision, Mr. Ernie. Grateful to be part of this next chapter with PORTMAN Education Group. Ready for the 1000X journey ahead. 🔥
The race has begun today with a mighty start. PORTMAN Education Group is reaching all and beyond. Way to go Mr. Ernie. The unimaginable is possible when you believe. Thank you, Mr. Ernie.
"Nothing comes easy, but everything is possible."
Your quote has always inspired me — not just because of the words, but because you live them out. Your ability to integrate and execute what you believe in is what makes your leadership truly admirable.
Consistency is often the barrier that separates the average from the extraordinary — and you consistently go beyond that, turning vision into reality. Life is full of challenges, but as you’ve shown, we either give up or figure it out and make it happen.
I’m truly grateful to be part of PORTMAN Education Group!
Wow, this gave me goosebumps. Your journey, resilience, and vision are nothing short of incredible. 1000X isn’t just a number. It’s a whole new mindset. I’m proud and excited to be part of this next chapter with PORTMAN. The energy is real, the mission is clear, and I’m ready for the next 24 months of impact and growth!
Truly inspired by your vision and unshakeable resilience over these past 22 years especially through the pandemic. Can’t wait to witness the transformation and explosive growth ahead of us. Thank you for leading with such courage and clarity and inviting all of us to be part of this incredible new chapter for PORTMAN Education Group, Mr Ernie.
Truly impressive! Your vision and determination continue to inspire all of us. Excited to see how your 1000X ambition shapes the future of PORTMAN Education Group. Proud to have such a driven leader at the helm. Looking forward to the next groundbreaking growth!
Reading this gave me goosebumps. It’s not just about the numbers or scaling up it’s about the grit, the resilience, and the refusal to give up even when everything seemed to fall apart. Many would have stopped after surviving something as hard as the pandemic, but you chose to rise again, not just to rebuild, but to aim even higher. That takes real vision, courage, and heart.
PORTMAN has always stood out because of that spirit and this next chapter feels different. It feels bolder, clearer, and more meaningful. I’m genuinely excited (and proud) to be a part of this 1000X journey. Here’s to scaling and not growing!!. Let’s make it count. 🙌🔥

Thank you for always leading with such powerful vision, Mr. Ernie. Reading this really opened my eyes to how much determination and clarity it takes to scale not just a business, but a whole new mindset.

No matter what challenges came our way — big or small — Mr. Ernie always managed to lead and take the company to the next level. Even during the Covid pandemic, when everything was so difficult, he still led us strongly with a powerful and inspiring Strategic Direction Meeting.
After attending 9 years of Strategic Direction Meetings at PORTMAN Education Group, I’ve witnessed how every year, our goals and plans have become bigger and bolder. We’ve grown steadily — first bit by bit, then 10X by 10X. At one point, we were even aiming for IPO and a 100X growth plan!
Now, we’ve entered an entirely different chapter — we’re talking about 1,000X scaling!
It sounds crazy, and yet… it feels so believable. When we look at what we’re doing, what we have, and where we’re heading — 1,000X isn’t just possible, it’s achievable. Or maybe even more!
But here’s the real question:
Are we ready for 1,000X?
Can we keep up with the standards and speed?
Are we truly the right fit for this journey?
This is the question we must constantly ask ourselves. We need to keep checking in, and keep our standards aligned with the pace of this fast-scaling organization.
This is not just a "congratulations" post for the company or for Mr. Ernie.
This is a wake-up call — for you and for myself — to raise our standards, to level up, and to decide if we’re truly ready to be part of the 1,000X journey.
I’m grateful to witness this moment, and I’m committed to go all the way.
Thank you.
To me, you’re not just a leader, you’re an icon — someone I genuinely look up to. Your drive, confidence, and belief in growth have not only moved the business forward but inspired every one of us to believe that nothing is impossible. Hopefully I will witness and be part of this evolution. Thank you for being the kind of leader people don’t just follow — they admired
"To me, this isn’t just growth. This is legacy. And really looking forward to be a part of it."
Mr, Ernie, it is truly inspiring! Excited to be part of this bold new journey with PORTMAN. Let’s scale it 1000X together! 🚀👏
