EP 359 - We love opinions and James has plenty. After spending a couple of episodes looking at the global picture we get down to UK business brass tacks with Partyman CEO James Sinclair.
James is full of advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, business owners and anyone at the sharp end of leading a company in the UK. We talk about the importance of dreaming big, the value of vertical integration and how staying on top of your P&L and cash flow is the most important thing that any business owner can do.
Given the recent UK budget, James’ call on the government to tax profit not turnover makes this a timely re-listen.
