Show Notes
In this episode of the Driven Female Entrepreneur Podcast, I speak with Richard Woods, the Founder of the Million Dollar Sprint.
Richard’s journey kicked off at university, where he pursued business and entrepreneurship, discovering a love for design and art along the way. Graduating with a wealth of product ideas, he dove into an offbeat business venture, negotiating in bustling streets across Delhi and Chinese manufacturing hubs. With unwavering enthusiasm, he brought his creations back to the UK, taking on the role of a vibrant salesman akin to Del Boy Trotter.
Amid economic downturns, Richard faced a challenge. The 2008 financial crisis struck his retail partners, prompting a quest for sales boosts. To assist, he proposed a trade: crafting websites for these struggling retailers in return for bulk orders. This shift uncovered his knack for website development, opening new business horizons.
Now, Richard Woods, a three-time best-selling author, award-winning entrepreneur, and former ‘The Apprentice’ finalist, assists entrepreneurs in achieving success through his initiative, the Million Dollar Sprint. He simplifies strategies and emphasises the power of focus to guide businesses to million-dollar revenue milestones.
Don't miss this episode to discover Richard's journey and the invaluable insights he shares on achieving success through streamlined approaches and the "power of one."
