Our guest for this episode of THE OVERCOMERS is a seasoned entrepreneur, author, and mentor with over 33 years of experience in the landscaping industry.
BARRY RANDALL, known for his transformative approach to garden design and business development, Barry helps fellow landscapers transition from labour-intensive work to becoming business owners. Hailing from Leicester, Barry's early life taught him invaluable lessons outside the classroom.
Despite academic struggles, he cultivated a passion for landscaping, turning it into a successful career. His unique perspective on the landscaping business shifted when he began to see himself not just as a landscaper, but as a business strategist specialising in garden sales.
Barry believes true business success hinges on three pillars: 1. Time: Prioritise health and family while making each day count. 2. Team: Develop great people, delegate responsibility, and foster growth. 3. Money: Understand your finances and focus on high-profit projects.
For Barry, success extends beyond business achievements. It includes quality family time with his wife, kids, and grandkids - Marie, Lorelle, Lexie, Chayse and Raiya - along with the freedom to travel and enjoy life. He stays fit by walking at sunrise every morning and hitting the gym daily, maintaining a strong mind and body. An accomplished author of 5 books with more on the horizon, Barry shares his business acumen but also his journey and insights, encouraging others to plan their path to success. Whether through his books or personal mentorship, Barry is eager to share the lessons he's learned, both triumphs and setbacks.
