It's all about getting up, dressing up & showing up.
In this episode, Steven is with philanthropist Alfie Best, Chairman of Wyldecrest Park Homes, Europe’s largest park home operator.
Alfie’s journey is both inspirational and fascinating and he takes pride in being true to himself and his history, being the same person now, as a millionaire businessman, as he was when he began his journey.
He has a passion for park homes and loves working, citing his Dad as his most important significant mentor and the individual who instilled the strong work ethic Alfie has sustained throughout his entrepreneurial journey.
‘If I can do this anyone can do it’ find out how in this entertaining podcast with a very relatable man who is creating a legacy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• Who better to understand park homes than someone who grew up in them.
• It took me 30 years to find my way to park homes and my passion, we had lots of different businesses before moving into the park home sector.
• When I’m buying a residential park or a property the first thing I look at are the returns, not where it is located. The property is a tool to create wealth.
• It’s not just a tool to create an income stream it’s a tool to develop.
• When you are buying property check the figures and returns but then look further are there any potential development opportunities? can you go up or out? When you do this, you are increasing the value.
• What’s happened to me isn’t magic or because I’m really clever it’s just good habits, creating good habits and work ethic.
• I didn’t tell people I was a traveller until I felt I’d reached a level where it wouldn’t matter anymore.
• We have to accept the tools we are born with and learn to sharpen them.
• I love working in business and the one thing that is a key component for any successful business is the passion of the owner.
• It’s about setting little goals and then the momentum will grow and the business will work on its own.
• The momentum for Wyldecrest continues to grow and we are focused on building a legacy
• We are Europe’s largest residential park home operator and we want to become the biggest global park home, operator.
• We are all successful in one way or another.
• The success we are talking about is financial and I’ve got a long way to go because I’m only at 450 on the list of richest people in the country.
• I’m successful at a level and I’m continuing to climb the ladder and enjoying it
• I try not to waste my time on what could be, would be, should be and I’m not interested in negative people I want to enjoy what I’m doing now.
