John Evans

James Sinclair is the owner of The Partyman Group.  His Group now has revenues of circa £30m and he employs around 1,000 staff. 

I got the chance to interview James on Friday 27th of January (dispite in the interview I said it was 2022!).   There was a huge amount to get though, and I was grateful for James sharing details of E+M=S, his Entreprenuers Academy, how he looks at creative ways to buy both businesses and property, how he uses KPI's in hs business, how he looks within a business to promote staff.  It's a great interview with some fabulous insights to how James is building and creating a successful group of businesses.  

James started in business while still in School, and has now been in business over  20 years.   I thoroughly enjoyed interviewing James and I hope you enjoy this episode too. 

The Business Success Stories Podcast show is produced and presented by John Evans.

John Evans was born in Liverpool, England. At 19 he left to live and work in London. In 1989 he moved out of the automotive sector to work in vehicle and asset finance at a growing lease company. That company, Leaseplan, is now one of the largest leasing organisations in the world. Over the next 30 years in corporate life John worked at GE Capital leading a UK sales team, then at HSBC leading an international network of partner banks for leasing and asset finance growth. He left to start and run his own company in 2007 and shut it down in 2012 due to never recovering from the world financial crash. He understands the challenges of a start up business first hand! After moving back into corporate life, this time is the software and SAAS sector, he eventually left once more, this time to buy an established business. In 2020 he purchased a pharmacy business using OPM as a LBO. This business is something he works on, not it. He and his business partner are in the process of acquiring several businesses and have also invested in a $1b roll-up to floatation opportunity in the US. In his spare time he writes songs. He is collaborating with two music composers at present and writing a musical show based on a true crime story of a bank fraud!
