Covid was a time of flux for every business. While some businesses flourished and scaled to new heights, others were landlocked (literally) by lockdowns. So how do you future proof a business, when the future is unclear?
In this inspiring episode of Flex Your Hustle, Michelle Lomas speaks to Dave Simmons, Strategic Advisor at Jucy. Jucy was founded in New Zealand in 2001 by Tim and Dan Alpe, two brothers on a mission to make traveling and adventure accessible to everyone. JUCY is a car and campervan hire business, iconic for their green vans and fun brand. But when Covid hit, the borders shut down, our doors closed to the outside world, and the devastation to the tourism industry started. And that’s where our next guest Dave Simmons comes in. The founders knew that they were in a unique situation, and needed to think fast. So Dave was brought onto the business to make sense of their current situation, drive necessary organisational change and help Jucy come through the other side. And that they did.
