In this episode, I'm joined by Dan Wilkins, a remarkable clothing brand entrepreneur who started his journey with just £250 and has scaled it to an impressive £15 million. We dive deep into Dan's story, exploring the exact steps he took to build his brand, and he shares his key strategy for anyone looking to achieve similar success. Dan’s journey wasn’t without challenges – he pushed through some of the most difficult times, including the heartbreaking loss of his older brother and, two years later, his father.
