We hear from a business owner who set himself very aspirational goals and with a lot of hard work and a supportive team, reached them long before he could have imagined. We hear how his business mindset helped him get there and how he’s overcome competition to come out on top.
Setting goals as a business owner can feel intimidating but it’s important to look to where you want to go so you can implement the work to get there.
Our guest today began his company during the recession but has grown a team of over 50 men. He is Brian Rooney, founder of BR Mechanical Pipework.
