In this episode, I interview Ben McHarg, co-founder of Life-Space Group. As the managing director of the family-owned business, Ben helped drive the strategic direction of the company to owning their own brands. This strategy ultimately led to the rapid growth that saw the business sold to supplement giant By-Health for $700 million in 2018.
Throughout the episode, Ben speaks about the importance of being ready to fully embrace opportunities when they arise. Ben takes us through the rapid growth of the company and how the business went to a whole new level. He also explains why grit and resilience are the key attributes he looks for in founders when investing in companies.
