    From His Home Office to 8 Airplanes

    What does it really take to build a multimillion-dollar business from the ground up? In Episode 2 of EXEQonomics, we sit down with "Big Rick," founder of Medway Air Ambulance, to hear how he went from selling cars to building one of the largest privately owned air ambulance companies in the United States. Starting from his home office in 2000, Rick built Medway into an international aviation business with eight aircraft, 45 employees, nearly 20,000 flights over 15 years, and contracts around the world before selling the company in 2015. But the most valuable part of his story isn't the size of the business. It's how he built it. From creating customer relationships that lasted decades to challenging traditional employee compensation models, Rick shares the principles that helped him attract great people, keep them motivated, and build a company that could grow beyond himself. In this episode, we discuss: How relationships, referrals, and exceptional service drive long-term business growth.The transition from employee to entrepreneur and the realities of starting a business from scratch.Why performance-based compensation and profit sharing can improve employee motivation and retention.How aligning employee incentives with company goals builds stronger teams.Why investing in your people can be more valuable than maximizing short-term profits.The sales and leadership philosophies that helped turn a home-based business into an international operation.Whether you're starting a business, scaling an established company, managing a sales team, or looking for better ways to attract and retain talent, this conversation offers practical insights from an entrepreneur who's experienced the entire journey. EXEQonomics explores the real stories, decisions, challenges, and lessons behind building, running, and growing a business in today's world. No textbook theories. Just real conversations with people who've lived it.
