Listen "30. Bands, Sales, and Blind Faith – Jack Frimston"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Greater Manchester’s Greatest Minds, Eddie sits down with Jack Frimston, co-founder of one of Manchester’s fastest-growing lead generation agencies, to unpack a story that didn’t start in business, but in music.
Jack’s journey began on stage, chasing a dream of becoming a professional musician. From his early days in teenage bands to busking across Europe, performing at Trafalgar Square, and sharing stages with major acts like George Ezra and The Beach Boys, Jack spent years trying to break into the music industry. But when the reality of slow ticket sales, missed opportunities, and changing trends finally caught up, Jack found himself having to start again.
In a brutally honest conversation, Jack shares how that setback became the catalyst for his pivot into sales, eventually leading him to co-found a thriving sales agency with his best friend. He explains how his years performing taught him skills that unexpectedly transferred into business, from handling rejection to staying obsessed with constant improvement.
