In this week’s episode of the Future-Proof your Business podcast, I’m delighted to welcome my client Dave Lowe, owner and Managing Director of Autac, leading British manufacturer of high-quality electrical cable and coil.

Dave and his wife Sallie acquired Autac in 2016, and since then have grown the business from £1.5M to more than £5.8M this year.

In this conversation, Dave shares the behind the scenes of their journey, experiences and learnings, the secrets of their remarkable success and some of the strategies they’ve implemented to achieve it.

We chat about:
  • The importance of backing yourself, being clear about where you want to be and surrounding yourself with the right people.
  • Honesty is key. How being brave and doing what you know is the right thing to do, even when it means having difficult conversations or upsetting people, can make the difference between the success or failure of your business.
  • Bringing energy and showing up in the right way. You have to drive your business forward because no-one else will do it for you.
  • Being able to make decisions in the best interest of your business.
  • The power of excellent communication, managing people's expectations and doing what you say you’re going to do.
  • Creating a winning team and culture based on your values and vision.
And why in manufacturing your customers are everything. Without people buying your product you have nothing.
