Rob O’Brien along with his two brothers Bill and Paul founded Floyd’s barbershop in 1999. Today there are over 125 barbershops nationwide. The three brothers pioneered the modern-day barbershop focused on expert cuts and an amplified experience. In my personal interactions with Rob, I have been impressed by his vision and how he connects it to making the brand stronger.
Here are some key insights from this week’s show:
- Commitment starts before you take the first step.
- Never worry about not knowing industry norms.
- Creating your brand starts with creating a better customer value.
- In most value brands, customers don’t feel valued.
- Everyday, feel you’re getting started again.
- Do not overreact to mistakes.
- The big secret is management by walking around.
