Nine months of the year are gone. Most business owners could not tell you honestly whether that has been a good year or a bad one.Matt is back in the UK and frames this one as a scorecard on the first nine months before the final quarter starts. The number that sets it up is brutal. In the financial year to March 2025, 801,000 new companies were incorporated in the UK. Over the same twelve months, 726,000 were dissolved. Nine businesses open their doors for roughly every eight that close them. If you are still trading, that is not nothing.Charlie gives the most honest account he has given on the show. The year has been a slog since January, the numbers are not what he wanted, and he struggles to name a single thing he feels victorious about. What he can say is that they have worked on the business harder in six months than in the previous five years. Matt maps it straight onto his own 2021, when five years of doubling turnover ran into a wall that took two and a half gritty years to get past, and lands on the lesson that separates the businesses that make it. You fix things while trading is good, not when it dips.Wins of the week are a seven kilogram loss, some blunt feedback from Jacob Lockwood that landed harder than expected, a cricket league title with the top run scorer in it, and a website that has been three years coming. Then the question of the week, which asks what the version of you from the first of January would make of your business today. Charlie's answer to the second half of it is the thing most owners will recognise instantly.Takeaways:📊 801,000 UK companies were incorporated in the year to March 2025 and 726,000 were dissolved, roughly nine opening for every eight that close🧠 Why the businesses that survive fix things while trading is good, not when it dips⚖️ Matt's 2021, five years of doubling turnover followed by two and a half years of grind to get moving again🚩 Taking on space you do not need yet, and why growing into it is the whole point🎯 What would the January version of you be proudest of, and what would they be gutted you still have not sorted?Chapters:(00:00) Top Dog, Poodle, and back in Britain(01:23) Holland's Country Clothing store opening, 25 September(02:48) A day with Jacob Lockwood(04:03) Number 10 in the North(06:19) Substance over PR stunts(09:12) Summer with the kids, and being present(10:24) Nine months in: the honest scorecard for Q4(11:48) Why September still feels like a new school year(13:18) The two days that turned August around(15:04) Signing the lease on the unit next door(15:50) The Xero switchover that went wrong first(16:40) Phase one of the new website, ahead of schedule(17:31) Scaling India, and what Matt's mentor told him(19:42) Stop and look at what you have actually done(21:14) Six months working on the business, not in it(23:13) Matt's 2021, when the growth just stopped(25:00) Why you fix things while trading is good(27:35) Trench warfare and borrowed customers(29:23) Charlie has not finished a podcast in eight weeks(30:43) British Business Fact of the Week: 801,000 opened, 726,000 closed(32:49) What are your big wins of the year?(35:34) Win of the Week: Matt is seven kilograms down(40:42) The feedback from Lockwood that stung(41:48) Charlie: league champions and top run scorer(43:15) The new site is live(46:09) Honest feedback on the homepage(49:42) Question of the Week(50:59) If January you could see your business today(52:05) Matt: the shop, and the website he still has not done(55:57) Being on a 10Follow Matt:📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mrmattholland/👨‍💻 LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrmattholland/📱 TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mrmattholland❌ X - https://x.com/mrmattholland1Follow Charlie:📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/theworkwearexpert👨‍💻 LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlie-smith-1a55295b/
