Building The Brand - Episode 001 - Gary Rhodes - The Power Of Partnerships

Hosted by multiple iTunes Top 10 podcaster James Burtt, Building The Brand is in-depth conversations with the entrepreneurs, founders, marketing and brand experts, PR specialists, CEO’s and CMO’s who have built some of the countries most successful companies and brands.

This week on the show we have Uber-successful Health Tech investor Gary Rhodes who honestly, warmly and modestly shares his journey from window cleaner to multi-millionaire high net-worth investor.

In this episode Gary explains how his desired to help improve the lives of others directed him into the health and fitness space, he needed cash for further training which lead him to purchasing the rights to a local window cleaning… this company almost accidentally grew and grew and grew, until Gary found himself with nationwide contracts to some of the biggest companies - but ultimately this business was never going to fuel the passions that lead to him starting it in the first place.

He sold the window cleaning brand - which by this time was a big business - and use the proceeds to start investing in businesses that could drive his desire to impact change and improvements in the health of world’s population.

In the show he shares:

* How he discovered Osteostrong - the brand he now acts as International Managing Director for

* What drove him to leaving a very successful business because of passion

* How Gary fulfilled his own need in Osteostrong and that’s often the way a good business starts 

* What led to Tony Robbins becoming a business partner in Osteostrong

* How education of consumers can be essential with taking a new product to market

* What to look for in a great business partner

* How growing a brilliant business is based on relationships

* How targets get reduced if anyone in the team takes their foot off the gas

* What family life and entrepreneurship looks like to Gary 

* Managing time when you’re running multiple businesses

The mission of our show is create a sense of inspiration and aspiration for our community of likeminded go-getters who are the influencers, innovators, creators, makers, builders, crafters and doers who form the next big wave of entrepreneurial success and we think that Gary’s story, journey and vision will certainly do exactly that.
