10+ years of experience in golfing and a keen interest in whisky, now helping people have a comfortable drinking experience with a purpose. Growing 67% a year in sales for the first few years with over 3 FTEs. (Episode 300 - Greg Ramsay)

In this episode, I interview Greg Ramsay, the Founder, and CEO of The NZ Whisky Collection based in Hobart, Australia. Greg has set up his own business together with his two business partners to flourish the Whisky industry around the country.

With over 10 years of golfing experience and a keen interest in whisky, Greg has decided to build a ready-made whisky business to share its history to people and develop his passion and happiness. The NZ Whisky Collection was established in 2011 and has been running for over 11 years. Growing 67% a year in sales for the first few years with over 3 FTEs.

Greg has said that growing a small business requires resilience and thick skin in order to help make more progress in growing a small business. So he says “I couldn't do anything like a typical businessman does. I just wouldn't be good in a nine-to-five job, and with a lot of people you're going into business with, you've got to have resilience.”
