Could a business mentor be the secret to success? This week Chris and Tyson discuss the benefits of business mentoring with Ian Barker of Ian Barker Gardens, and David Bascombe of Green Exteriors.

When David decided it was time for a new challenge, he first discussed it with his then-employer, Ian. With Ian's encouragement and mentorship, David launched his own landscaping construction business - just months before COVID hit! Three years on, and David's business is thriving. He and Ian discuss the challenges of doing business through COVID, the mutual benefits of business mentoring, and the importance of relationships in planning for business success.
