What changes when you’ve already built, sold and exited a business… and decide to do it all over again?
This week on Getting Shxt Done, we’re joined by Shaun Simons, co-founder of Compton.
Shaun started in commercial property at 16 before co-founding Hatton during the credit crunch, selling the business to Colliers in 2016 and spending five years inside the global firm. Then, in 2021 - in the middle of a pandemic and with offices across London half-empty - he launched Compton.
We talk about building a business for the second time, working with family, scaling a team, leadership, taking risks and what nobody tells you about the early years of entrepreneurship.
Shaun also shares how Compton attributes around 30% of its revenue to LinkedIn, why he’s built such a loud and recognisable personal brand, dealing with criticism online and how founders can actually make content sustainable.
Plus, we get into productivity, motivation, money, future exits and what “Getting Shxt Done” means to Shaun.
Follow Getting Shxt Done for new episodes featuring entrepreneurs, founders, creators and business leaders sharing the real stories behind their success.
