Build an aussie business like Castlebridge with Tony Fagan
Tony may have moved here from the UK, but he is as true blue as You'd expect from any Aussie, and he has built his business through hard work and perserverence in the grounds of Aussie battlers. We all have to start from somewhere and build up to represent our selves and our businesses. Tony has demonstrated that this can be done well in the tough suburban markets where prices do get challenged and labour isn't cheap. He has ensured his business has deep foundations and he shares what it takes for you to do the same thing. It's not always fancy, high end and luxury properties that we build a lawn and garden maintenance business on, and this episode is proof that you can make it work.
