Manage episode 494791781 series 3133411
What happens when a 150-year-old business decides to reinvent itself—and ends up hitting $20 million in revenue?
Hosts Chris Yano and Chad Peterman sit down with John Bowman of F.F. Hitchcock to unpack how a legacy company founded in 1870 transformed into a $20M service powerhouse. John gets real about navigating change, surviving the 2008 downturn, and discovering that growth often starts with admitting what you don’t know.
From Rhino X revelations to building upside-down trade show booths, John shares how creativity, team culture, and a willingness to listen have redefined what's possible in the trades.
If you’re into legacy, leadership, and laughing at mullet-themed marketing ideas, this one’s for you 🎯🔥.
