Charles Gregory, Chief Operations Officer for growing equipment finance company Silver Chef intends to rely on his previous experience as the general manager of network developments for Flight Centre to support the future growth of Silver Chef's financial solution programs.
Silver Chef is currently Australia’s leading hospitality equipment financier providing a financial solution for entrepreneurs who are starting or expanding a business. Through its unique Rent-Try-Buy solution, Silver Chef enables businesses to obtain equipment, without committing large amounts of capital up-front.
With this system tried and tested in the hospitality industry, the company has recently launched its new division, GoGetta - which will finance equipment for businesses outside the hospitality industry.
“GoGetta speaks to the entrepreneur, someone on their own growth path. When an entrepreneur wants to grow their business, GoGetta is a flexible solution for their equipment financing needs.”
Aside from this new equipment financing solution, Mr Gregory brings to Silver Chef and to clients his five top tips for companies on the move:
- retain good staff and attract quality, new talent, after all they are the key to success and without them growth is not possible
- be innovative, think outside the square to gain a competitive edge
- don’t forget the simple things like quality service
- don’t get distracted with market share and turnover growth as profit is the only true measure of successful growth
- determine what the business does best, and stick to it as profitable growth is about growing a business model that works.
