Listen "From Family Retail To Fragrance: Damien Scarf On Leadership That Scales"

Episode Synopsis

What if the difference between surviving and scaling is not your product but your people? We sit down with entrepreneur Damien Scarf to unpack how a family retail brand navigated shifting economics, why franchising saved a legacy, and how he went on to launch bamboo, tree‑free toilet paper, assisted stretch studios, and a national commercial scenting company. The thread is culture: clear standards, honest conversations, and the courage to delegate before the business outgrows you.If you’re building something that needs to last, you’ll find a clear playbook here: get a mentor you respect, surround yourself with smarter people, set standards you’ll personally uphold, and accept that success takes longer than you want. Share this with a business owner who needs it, and leave a review with the one change you’ll make this week.
