Cash is STILL King! How Simon Arora Changed Discount Shopping in Britain

Rob Moore talks with Simon Arora, the entrepreneurial mastermind behind B&M's UK growth. From where it all started, to building a multi-billion-pound retail empire, Simon shares his knowledge and experience on business strategy, family dynamics, and personal growth. This episode is a must-listen for aspiring entrepreneurs, offering a rare glimpse into the mind of a retail disruptor who transformed the UK discount sector. Simon Arora REVEALS: How he changed discount shopping in UK retail Why productivity and efficiency were key to B&M’s shopping success The importance of maintaining a "paranoid" mindset in business The key to work-life balance Why cash is king Why CEOs have to trust employees more The challenges of international expansion What he learnt from his failures The role of luck in anyone’s success BEST MOMENTS "Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity. Cash is reality." "My character flaw is that every transaction or opportunity didn't go right... is seared in the mind 10 times more vividly than the successes." "I like to think that I respected my colleagues' work-life balance. I was never a believer in people having to work long hours... I'd rather you just get the work done in the 40-hour week, but just be really productive." "The higher the monkey climbs a tree, the more you see of its backside." "We did a series of transactions in the three, four years after 2008, the each time step changed the size of our business. And we double down in that period of good fortune where all these opportunities were coming at us rather than taking our foot off the gas." "As we grew B&M, we decided that we were going to spend none of our turnover on advertising. We built a business from 20 shops to five billion of revenue with no advertising budget." "I personally negotiated something like 17 million square feet of UK retail selling space. 750 large stores at the risk of sounding immodest. No individuals ever done that in UK retail." "The entrepreneurs that really make a difference and create great organszations are the ones that optimise their success. That periods of good look, they double down, they take full advantage of it rather than thinking, well, this is fine."

Finn Barnaby | The Experiment: Piano Improv Meets Podcast Innovation

Finn Barnaby | The Experiment: Piano Improv Meets Podcast Innovation

In his most experimental episode ever, Rob interviews pianist Finn Barnaby to answer commonly asked questions on the show - but with a twist. Instead of speaking his responses, Finn expresses himself solely through music compositions on his piano. What unfolds is a highly entertaining glimpse into Finn's creative mind and talent as a musician. From commenting on the state of affairs in the UK to sharing brutal life lessons, Rob and Finn also discuss all things music, including mastering an instrument, the role of AI, and the dilemma between creative expression and commercial viability that all artists face. Finn Reveals: Motivation is key to mastering a musical instrument - natural talent helps but drive matters more The importance of understanding music theory The opportunities AI presents for musicians  Why word-of-mouth reputation matters Why the right teaching and guidance makes learning piano achievable  Why improvisation skills separate human musicians from AI  BEST MOMENTS “I’m a closet creative” "Motivation is all you need" "Word of mouth is very valuable" "I really appreciated simple music as an art form, you can sell to the masses and still keep your identity" "There’s been some really interesting developments with music in AI. And I’m really curious to see If it can, or when, or what happens when it can improvise." "I'll be curious to see...if I climbed the success ladder. I'd be very curious to see where the no came in." "I teach lots and lots of people and the ones that succeed are the ones that are motivated."

"Judgment just shuts down every door to opportunity to actually experiencing a connection. And, you know, it shuts down happiness."

Rob Moore Challenged on Steven Bartlett & the Money he Makes on the Podcasters Podcast

Rob Moore Challenged on Steven Bartlett & the Money he Makes on the Podcasters Podcast

Rob is interviewed by Kane and Ash on The Podcasters Podcast in this episode. Rob shares how he built an 8-figure business through his podcast, revealing secrets behind viral episodes like his infamous Andrew Tate interview. He dives into the social strategies that made him one of the biggest creators on the planet, how he monetises across multiple platforms, and the goalpost-moving challenges of going viral while balancing authenticity. Rob also discusses pivoting from property to content creation, his approach to getting high-profile guests like Will.i.am and Katie Hopkins, and why he has beef with Diary of a CEO's Stephen Bartlett. Overall an insightful peek behind the curtain of one of the OG podcasting Disruptors! Follow The Podcasters Podcast: Apple PodcastsSpotifyGoogle Podcasts KEY TAKEAWAYS The Disruptive Entrepreneur (now rebranded to Disruptors) was the first of Progressive Media’s to launch 8 years ago and now has almost 1000 episodes. Build a "specific but vague" niche to maximise reach - business, money, and entrepreneurship is broad but still clear. Create in your authentic format e.g. long-form interviews for Rob. Short-form doesn't always suit creators. Repurpose one piece of content into 50. View podcasting as a commercial business. Reinvest revenue into better guests and production. You need to invest to grow. Avoid overcomplicating tech and production as a beginner. iPhone + consistency beats fancy gear! Interview skills are critical. Research helps but stay present and let conversations flow. Interviewing takes practice and you will get better with time. Go broader once you've built an audience and identity. Rob went from Disruptive Entrepreneur which was more specific to then Disruptors which interviews a wider range of guests. Handwritten letters stand out to get guests attention. Wax seals also help, you can outsource the writing. Controversial guests like Andrew Tate bring huge but fleeting blows up. Lasting impact depends on authenticity. Don't overcomplicate funnels, CRMs etc when starting out. Bang out content and drive people to simple sales funnels. BEST MOMENTS “Really, all I should think about is the impact I have on people." "So many people right now are overwhelmed. It's just a massive confusion. There's so much opportunity but so much confusion." "This morning...I felt grey and fuzzy and bleh. But I got in the garden and I did a pretty hard workout. And then I got in the ice bath... And I thought, fucking hell, my brain is not really on it." "Go live for three minutes, five minutes, ten minutes and then fairly easy...you can chuck that content there and they can do four or five clips from that." "Sometimes I think if I'd have stayed Disruptive Entrepreneur and just interviewed millionaires and billionaires, you know, maybe I might be more successful." "People way overcomplicate everything. Get a good agency...be more prolific with your content...and the money will start to go up." "I know for a fact he pays guests big money. I know this for a fact...He and others have made it harder to get guests because they're chucking big money down." "I like the fact that you call it a commercial business because I don't think a lot of creators do."
