George Davies on Business Success, Sacrifices & Leadership – A Must-Listen Podcast

“There’s a point where you’re making huge sacrifices to your own family” – George Davies Opens Up About the Challenges and Celebrations of Running a Successful Company.  

Listen to George Davies like never before. In November 2024, George joined James Vincent on the Action Coach podcast to share the highs, lows and brutal honesty of running your own business.  

Whether you’re an entrepreneur starting out or managing an established enterprise, there’s something everyone can relate to. George Davies Turf and Stone is an established premium supplier of landscaping materials, offering award-winning customer service and direct-to-site deliveries. Over 24 years, George has taken his business from a one-man band working tirelessly to support his customers and family to a thriving company with 24 team members, a fleet of lorries and a trusted reputation in the industry.  

In this insightful conversation, George covers topics essential to business success, including trust, active listening, motivation, mindset and confidence. However, the overarching theme that shines through is his unfaltering commitment to providing outstanding customer service. A quality he stands by today and endorsed by back-to-back Supplier Exception Service awards.  

Humbly, George doesn’t put the evolution of George Davies Turf and Stone solely on his shoulders. He passionately advocates for his team, clients and suppliers – confirming that his achievements stem from asking for help, utilising people’s skillsets and trusting in others. 

George shared, “I know exactly how hard business owners work to offer a better service for their clients while supporting their staff and families. It’s a tough job. But it takes its toll. By talking to James, I had the opportunity to share my story and remind people they’re not alone.” 

Since the podcast aired on January 27th 2025, George has been inundated with positive messages and feedback, “I have received messages from a variety of people saying how much they have taken from it. If I can help just one person stop and think differently, then that would make my year.”
