Managing A Business So That You Can Take The Summer Off

Stuart Burlton and his wife are the entrepreneurial team behind Make an Entrance, a manufacturer of door mats.

When the company faced supply chain challenges many entrepreneurs would have looked to international manufacturers. But Suart and his wife decided to open their own factory instead.

In this episode of The Independent Minds Stuart explains to Michael Millward of Abeceder, why that decision may not have been the logical solution but why it was the correct decision.

Stuart also describes the approach to managing Make an Entrance that enables him and his wife to both focus on working on their business and spend the school holidays away from that business.
