What is up SharkNation!
Andy Mackin is the CEO of Mackin Group, an international company that provides both health and safety consulting and talent solutions for companies all over the world.
Andy started the business after a 21 year career in the Irish Navy.
The company has huge ambition and is aiming to generate €75 million per year in revenue by 2025, and €110 million by 2030! Andy shares his vision of ringing the bell at the New York Stock Exchange when the company goes public!
Key takeways:
1. Andy was almost 40 years old when he started the business - it's never too late to pivot to a new career.
2. He found that scale was achieved quickest by going global. Andy talks about opening offices in 18 states in the US, as well as offices in the far east and Africa.
3. Relationships compound over time and it's extremely important to maintain these relationships as you scale.
4. Stay open minded - the Talent side of the business grew from a suggestion from an existing customer and is now a huge part of the Group.
5. Get up early - sleep quicker... :)
