Riverford's distribution & sales model is primarily through a franchise network. I joined the business when they had 30 franchisees and a £15 million turnover. My main role was to grow sales through expanding & managing the network both in terms of revenue & geography. In four years I took the business to over 110 franchisees, increased sales to £34 million & sold all available UK territories. I successfully managed franchise re-sales and acquired multiple competitors (from initial contact to full integration).

I joined Patientline plc as International Sales Director after they acquired my business. We floated the enlarged business on AIM & raised £90 million. I was responsible for the winning, transition & management of the contracts both in the UK & Europe. Each contract was circa £1 million investment. As well as winning multiple new contracts, I also successfully converted the existing Hospital Entertainment contracts to the new business.

I came up with the idea of providing TV rental at the bedside of NHS patients & started Hospital Entertainment with my business partner David Watts. I started the business on a total personal investment of £300 and a Princes' Trust loan of £5,000 and turned the concept into a multi-million pound turnover business. We acquired our main competitor in 1994 (a subsidiary Thorn EMI) & franchised the business across the UK. We grew the UK operation to over 150 hospital contracts & eventually sold to Patientline plc & then took the enlarged group through a IPO on AIM.

Initially my business operated the service for Thorn EMI (now Quadriga) & then we acquired the operation from them. The business provided TV and Telephone rental at the hospital bedside. We held 75 hospital accounts, with over 100 staff. I was responsible for winning new hospital contracts and managing the existing accounts, as well as taking the reporting of three Regional Director's. I acquired several businesses along the way, including a subsidiary of KPN Telecom.
