Richard shares his eight secrets to building a successful business, discusses his current passion for helping medium sized companies scale up and explains why he's investing £200 million of his own money into promising businesses. Richard Harpin REVEALS: How he started HomeServe with £50,000 of life savings How he nearly went bankrupt His key secret, to copy and pivot, finding successful business models and improving upon them He has always been entrepreneurial, starting by breeding rabbits at age 5, becoming "Ricardo the magician" at age 9 and establishing about six businesses before founding HomeServe at age 20 Why Richard is focused on helping the UK's 168,000 medium sized businesses scale up Why the UK lacks support for companies transitioning from startup to large enterprise. Why businesses need revolution at the start, but should focus on constant evolution as they grow BEST MOMENTS "I think the UK is the best place to run a global business, I think it's a great place for entrepreneurs to start a business... The only issue is, as a country, we're not that good at scale ups."  "I did [pay a big load of tax when selling the company] and I was happy to pay it because capital gains tax is at a reasonable level. I don't believe in all these entrepreneurs that sell up and move to Jersey or Monaco." "We're taught at school that copying homework is bad, we might get expelled for it. In business, I think copying is good."  "Disruption is what you do at the start of your business when you're inventing the model... But once you've done it, don't disrupt twice, that is dangerous, just keep evolving that model."   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team Episode Sponsor - AG1 Claim your exclusive offer of AG1 at the link below drinkag1.com/disruptors ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Tice doesn't just criticise though, he offers bold solutions to what he sees as a "confidence crisis" gripping Britain. From slashing wasteful government spending to scrapping inheritance tax and net zero policies, Tice lays out Reform's vision for revitalising the UK economy. Rob and Richard’s conversation tackles everything from Labour's catastrophic start to immigration, crime and the cultural values Tice believes are essential to Britain's recovery. Richard Tice REVEALS: That the UK is experiencing a confidence crisis with people getting financially, socially, and culturally poorer The UK is "absolutely salvageable" with the right leadership and hard work Why Labour have had such catastrophic start to power Reform's economic plan, including raising the income tax threshold to £20,000, scrapping inheritance tax, cutting regulations and implementing an approach that prioritises making ordinary people better off The UK needs to abandon net zero policies which he claims are causing uncompetitive energy prices, killing industries and driving up costs for ordinary people Why he proposes a freeze on immigration, arguing the UK should focus on getting the 9 million economically inactive Britons back to work Why he advocates for a ‘broken windows’ approach to crime; prosecuting every offense no matter how small, ensuring swift consequences and creating parallel private prosecution systems if needed That he believes the UK must proudly defend its Christian heritage and British values, reject concepts like Sharia courts and push back against what he sees as confusing modern ideologies like the concept of multiple genders BEST MOMENTS "I've run businesses and I've seen where a good business can be ruined by a bad boss in a couple of years, but a business that's literally gone into bankruptcy can be turned around by a good boss in two to three years." "If you don't risk anything, you risk everything. Taking risks is a good thing and sometimes things go wrong. It's called life and that's why we have the limited company structure, so we don't lose our home." "In America, you're not really an entrepreneur until you've gone bust at least once. Here, you go bust once, and I mean, you're castigated forever. It's like Hall of shame and you almost never get out of it." "Family. Community. Country. If you and your family are working hard and achieving and becoming better off, then you're contributing to your local community and if all the families in that community are working hard and getting together, your community is becoming better off." "You've got the highest taxes for 70 years, we've got the highest government spending, much of it wasteful, for 70 years. The most regulations for 70 years, the highest national debt for 70 years and the lowest growth decade for 70 years."   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team Episode Sponsor - AG1 Claim your exclusive offer of AG1 at the link below drinkag1.com/disruptors ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

They talk about the luxury watch market including its dramatic post-COVID crash and the rise of independent watchmakers. Johnny reveals how his grandfather's firefighting legacy was the inspiration behind building a British watch brand that incorporates genuine upcycled firefighter equipment. From celebrity collectors like Kevin O'Leary and President Biden to Johnny's journey from banker to watchmaker, this episode provides a fascinating look into entrepreneurship, watch industry disruption and why traditional luxury brands might be taking advantage of their customers. REVEALS: How William Wood Watches incorporates genuine upcycled firefighter equipment, honouring Johnny's grandfather's 25 year firefighting career. How Johnny started William Wood Watches at just 25 years old while maintaining his banking career  The company produces about 3,500 watches annually priced between £1,000-£4,000, with limited editions like the 30-piece "King's Coronation" watch dramatically increasing in value, selling out instantly. The high profile customers that buy William Wood Watches, including President Biden (whose watch was presented in the Oval Office), Kevin O'Leary and Russell Crowe. Why Johnny believes the luxury watch market crashed post-COVID How William Wood is expanding beyond direct-to-consumer sales into B2B government contracts. That watch brands claiming "in house" manufacturing primarily use this as marketing justification for charging premium prices. BEST MOMENTS "I believe if a Richemont Group bought it, Jesus, they could take William Wood Watches into the billions in revenue. Every single country in the world has a fire service. Our vision is to convert fire stations all around the world into our concept stores." "The whole reason we're in business is to be able to produce watches that you can actually wear on a daily basis and appreciate. Now there's so much supply in the marketplace that you are struggling where to be able to make these purchases." "I used to fall for that, I've got loads of limited edition APs, which, you know, they're limited edition, so they're the ones that will go up in value and they haven't gone up in value because they make a new limited edition, a new one, and a new one." "This is the reason why we're seeing such a rise of independent brands. We've seen in the last three years, the amount of customers who now know more or want to educate themselves on other independent sort of lesser well known brands." "I think society is celebrating the wrong businesses. We are feeding a conversation around entrepreneurs who have these big billion dollar companies with huge employees, potentially masses of debt. I think we should be celebrating more the entrepreneurs turning over maybe into the single digit millions."

Profitable businesses are really sexy and it's sexy to have a business that you could bootstrap with your own two hands" "Money really is freedom and it is also protection” "Those who say it's impossible should get out of the way of those of us doing it." "In order to start a business, you're 90% likely to fail or a 10% success rate. In order to buy a business, you have a five to 20% fail rate and somewhere between a 95 to an 80% success rate."

I went through an orphanage and care, so I'm not ashamed to admit that I've worked hard and made money." “In a world where we've had a technology explosion, now we've got AI helping us particularly, that should make people more productive, shouldn't it?" "The first year is a research project, the first year is spending the money to find out if this is viable, that's what you want to find out as quickly as possible. If it means not having a shop front, not having any officers, not having a brief guy, just go and sell that." "There are entrepreneurs from all ages, all backgrounds, all countries, all religions, whatever, but there are no lazy entrepreneurs.” "Money and success, you know, it's a bandaid”.   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team Episode Sponsor - AG1 Claim your exclusive offer of AG1 at the link below drinkag1.com/disruptors ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
