[172] Richard in The Hotseat: Advice on Business, Wellbeing and Growth

In this unique TubbTalk episode, Richard Tubb becomes the guest! He was interviewed on The Remarkable People Show, broadcast earlier this year (2024). It’s hosted by Polly Brennan and Maggie Martin on Koast Radio, a local station in the north east of England.

Richard shares his experiences of moving to the North East with his wife Claire and why it feels like home. He tells Polly and Maggie the origin story of his company, Tubblog, and how the TubbTalk podcast evolved from there.

Richard also talks openly about his mental health challenges and how he supports his wellbeing with tactics to be resilient and to feel good on a day to day basis, even when things are tough.

He also shares what he does in his downtime, who inspires him and the famous person he’d love to have dinner with. He tells Polly and Maggie the best piece of advice he’s ever been given, and how he’d like to leave the world a better place.

About the Podcast

TubbTalk: The Podcast for Managed Service Providers
Putting Managed Service Providers back in control!
Richard Tubb has been a leader and keynote speaker in the MSP community for the last two decades. At the helm of media company and MSP advisory business Tubblog, Richard loves to showcase tech companies disrupting the industry, as well as shining a light on new tools you might not be aware of.

His long-running and successful interview-style show, TubbTalk, features fireside style chats with the CEOs and CTOs of these businesses, to dig deep into how they got started in the industry, what inspired them to start something new and what their advice would be to anyone who wants to do the same.

But it's not all tech focused! As a former MSP owner himself, Richard knows that there are many facets to being a business owner, which is why his guests reflect that too.

Previous topics include mental health, sales, marketing, business growth, productivity, customer service and more. Wondering why you should listen? Well, as one fan put it: "It's like eavesdropping on a conversation between two friends, who are sharing their knowledge and wisdom with each other. You learn while you're being entertained."
