Down the Rabbit Hole with David Serville - Episode 11 of Better Business, Better Life!
Description
Entrepreneurailsim runs in the Serville Family. David's brother is well known for starting Serville's Hair Salon, but who knew his brother created not one but 5 franchise businesses?
David is a driven entrepreneur with expertise in the franchising and service sectors. As the founder and CEO of CC Group NZ, he has been instrumental in catapulting Kiwi brands such as Crewcut (lawn mowing services and franchises), Crewcare (commercial cleaning services and franchises, Chemcare (asbestos removal), CC Training Academy (industry training), and CC Facilities Management (facilities services) to new and exciting heights.
However, as all entrepreneurs know, there's a danger of getting drawn down a rabbit hole, enticed by the bright, sparkly things that we all love.
So, how do you avoid these pitfalls & make sure you don't leave money on the table?
In 1991, David started a lawn mowing business with a business partner and a small business loan from the predecessor to WINZ. Almost 30 years later, that small business is now an established group of businesses.
In his typically understated way, David talks with me & takes us through his journey from that small business loan to a 'not so overnight success' group of companies that now employs 100s of staff. He shares with us how he learned from Amway, why he decided he had to learn about numbers, his relationship with his 3 wives, 5 kids & 4 grandchildren & how he avoids going down the rabbit hole.
David also shares his top 3 tips on how you can maintain clarity & focus.
