In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin interviews Owen Tilbury, founder of Clip Consulting, who shares his entrepreneurial journey from launching a restaurant in Tasmania to selling it for nearly a million dollars before the 2008 financial crisis. Owen emphasizes the importance of systemizing processes, crafting a unique selling proposition (USP), and fostering community engagement. He discusses his pivot from corporate consulting to community development, leading to the Great Regional City Challenge, which has raised over $600,000 for local projects. Owen also highlights the value of celebrating small wins, balancing work-life goals, and preparing for life after selling a business. The conversation explores people management, including the role of honesty, clear performance documentation, and creating job satisfaction through autonomy, goal clarity, and recognition. Insights from his 44 years in business include mentorship, the importance of life goals beyond work, and lessons learned from initiatives like the Men's Table, a support group for men navigating life challenges. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Owen Tilbury believes the hardest thing in growing a small business is finding and managing the right people. He explains that poor hiring choices can severely harm a business, and even well-qualified candidates on paper may not perform as expected. Letting staff go is never easy, but it's sometimes necessary when they aren't a good fit. He highlights the importance of setting clear goals, documenting performance, and being honest during the process. While he also discusses the challenges of systemizing operations, he makes it clear that people management is the toughest part of the growth journey. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Owen Tilbury's favorite business book that helped him the most is The E-Myth by Michael Gerber. He credits it with fundamentally shifting his mindset about entrepreneurship, particularly the importance of systemizing a business rather than relying solely on personal effort. The book helped him move beyond the "myth" of the natural entrepreneur and focus on building scalable systems that could operate without him, which became a key factor in the long-term success and eventual sale of his consulting business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Owen Tilbury didn't specifically mention any particular podcasts or online learning resources by name in the interview. However, he emphasized the value of lived experience over theory, suggesting that small business owners should learn directly from others who have actually built businesses. He praised initiatives like the Grow a Small Business podcast itself for featuring real-world stories and practical insights, rather than purely academic advice. His approach to learning leans toward practical, experience-based sharing, community engagement, and learning by doing rather than relying heavily on formal online resources. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Owen Tilbury recommends systemization as the most powerful tool to grow a small business. He highlights the importance of creating structured processes that allow the business to operate smoothly without relying solely on the owner. Specifically, he developed a systemized consulting framework called the Profit and Growth Process, which included custom software, manuals, surveys, and templates to streamline business planning and improvement. This approach not only enhanced consistency and scalability but also made his business valuable enough to sell for 15× EBITDA. For Owen, systemizing operations is the key resource every small business should invest in. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Owen Tilbury's advice to himself on day one of starting out in business would be to focus early on systemizing everything and to build the business around the life you want—not the other way around. He emphasizes that business should serve your life goals, not consume them. He also suggests being clear on what success looks like personally, not just financially, and to celebrate small wins along the way. Most importantly, he would remind himself to create a product or service with a clear competitive advantage (USP) and to not be afraid of failing small while learning fast.

England’s success was celebrated in all manners of ways. Songs were written, medals struck, portraits painted and prints published.

Rob discusses recent announcements made by Chancellor Rachel Reeves regarding significant government investments in infrastructure across the UK. The episode highlights key projects such as the expansion of Heathrow Airport, the development of Europe's Silicon Valley between Oxford and Cambridge, and the redevelopment of Old Trafford, home of Manchester United. Rob talks about how these infrastructure improvements can positively impact the housing market, suggesting that property investors should pay close attention to these developments. KEY TAKEAWAYS The UK government has announced significant investments in infrastructure, including the expansion of Heathrow Airport and improvements to various rail and road links, which are expected to positively impact the housing market. The development of East West Rail between Oxford and Cambridge is projected to add £78 billion to the UK economy over the next decade, highlighting the importance of transportation links in driving economic growth and housing demand. Potential changes to the planning and infrastructure bill could simplify the process for obtaining planning permissions, facilitating more development projects and potentially increasing housing supply. Major infrastructure projects, such as the redevelopment of Old Trafford and the lower Thames crossing, could lead to increased housing demand and property values in surrounding areas, making them important considerations for property investors. BEST MOMENTS "The biggest announcement was the Heathrow expansion... To have a third runway at Heathrow would be very, very suitable." "If you are looking to buy or you're looking for long-term growth, buying in and around these areas with major infrastructure projects might be quite beneficial." "The government are looking at making some changes to the planning and infrastructure bill... that might make planning permissions a lot easier." "If there is a new road tunnel going between Tilbury and Gravesend, have a look at the surrounding areas and the potential impact that that could have." "When we're looking at infrastructure projects around the UK, it's important to bear in mind what's going on, because that can have a massive impact on your investment decisions."

SPOOKY TIME. Welcome back, Herders! In folklore, a werewolf[a] (from Old English werwulf 'man-wolf'), or occasionally lycanthrope[b] (from Ancient Greek λυκάνθρωπος, lukánthrōpos, 'wolf-human'), is an individual that can shapeshift into a wolf (or, especially in modern film, a therianthropic hybrid wolf-like creature), either purposely or after being placed under a curse or affliction (often a bite or the occasional scratch from another werewolf) with the transformations occurring on the night of a full moon.[c] Early sources for belief in this ability or affliction, called lycanthropy,[d] are Petronius (27–66) and Gervase of Tilbury (1150–1228).The werewolf is a widespread concept in European folklore, existing in many variants, which are related by a common development of a Christian interpretation of underlying European folklore developed during the medieval period. From the early modern period, werewolf beliefs also spread to the New World with colonialism. Belief in werewolves developed in parallel to the belief in witches, in the course of the Late Middle Ages and the early modern period. Like the witchcraft trials as a whole, the trial of supposed werewolves emerged in what is now Switzerland (especially the Valais and Vaud) in the early 15th century and spread throughout Europe in the 16th, peaking in the 17th and subsiding by the 18th century.The persecution of werewolves and the associated folklore is an integral part of the "witch-hunt" phenomenon, albeit a marginal one, accusations of lycanthropy being involved in only a small fraction of witchcraft trials.[e] During the early period, accusations of lycanthropy (transformation into a wolf) were mixed with accusations of wolf-riding or wolf-charming. The case of Peter Stumpp (1589) led to a significant peak in both interest in and persecution of supposed werewolves, primarily in French-speaking and German-speaking Europe. The phenomenon persisted longest in Bavaria and Austria, with persecution of wolf-charmers recorded until well after 1650, the final cases taking place in the early 18th century in Carinthia and Styria.[f]

On the 8th of June 1948, the HMT Windrush sailed from Kingston with almost 500 migrants on board, destined for England. The ship docked at Tilbury on the 22nd of June, and history was made. Since that day the legend of Windrush has gradually come to characterise an increasingly broad and more diverse group of British citizens, and the event stands as a sacred moment in the history of British multiculturalism, race relations and immigration, laden though it is with moral and political baggage. In today's episode Tom and Dominic are joined by acclaimed journalist and author Trevor Phillips, to discuss this seminal moment in the history of Black Britain. During the course of the episode they dismantle some of the myths that have since developed, explore the people who came over, and the emergence of the communities that settled in Britain in the wake of 1948. They also consider the complicated wider context of the Windrush story, and the long term significance of this foundational moment.

The Empire Windrush docked at Tilbury in England on 22 June 1948 with 802 people on board from the Caribbean. The former passenger liner's arrival on that misty June day is now regarded as the symbolic starting point of a wave of Caribbean migration between 1948 and 1971 known as the "Windrush generation". Sam King was one of the passengers. He describes to Alan Johnston the conditions on board and the concerns people had about finding jobs in England. In this programme first broadcast in 2011, Sam also talks about what life was like in their adopted country once they arrived. (Photo: Empire Windrush at Tilbury docks in 1948.

Seventy-five years ago, on 22 June 1948, HMT Empire Windrush landed at Tilbury docks. The arrival of the ship is rightly remembered as a landmark moment in the story of Caribbean people in Britain. But, as historian Christienna Fryar joins Ellie Cawthorne to discuss, the Windrush didn't appear out of nowhere; it was preceded by a long and complicated relationship between Britain and the Caribbean which is less well remembered today.
