Ep 47 with Jason Murrell Small Business Owner- Talks about his lived Experience

Thank you to Co-host Kerry Madgwick. Another great show. I always love having you in.This week's amazing and inspiring guest who has his heart on his sleeve was Jason Murrell – Founder and Director at JADE Window Cleaning & Support Services Ltd.Jason has been in the business of commercial window cleaning for 30 years. Jason worked for several large companies within the Industry including helping to set up and run the Window Cleaning Division of MITIE, first off doing the hands-on work, getting up in cradles and cleaning some of the largest buildings across London, then moved into Operations Management running a team of 40 operatives and a fleet of 20 vehicles.Jason always wanted to build his own business so, in 2014, with a friend, he started JADE WCSS Ltd. Now, the sole Director of this company.JADE has since gone on to be awarded some very prestigious and complex buildings including most recently Perigon Heights in Bromley which is the highest residential apartment block in the borough.They have also been awarded the SME Enterprise Award for Best Commercial Window Cleaning Company in the South East for 2 years running both 2020 and 21.And most recently we were awarded the Global Enterprise Award for best Commercial Exterior Cleaning Company 2021Most of our work is still focused on commercial properties, office blocks, leisure centers, distribution centers, retail units, etc., although we do have some residential clients too.Jason loves the buzz of running his own business, of winning new clients, of keeping them happy, it is however extremely tough at times and very stressful.Jason has also been a big supporter of this show because he thinks mental health is such an important topic, that’s why he is sponsoring Mindset Matters again. His daughter was one of the first guests, so he guessed it was only a matter of time before he'd up here! Jason has had his own battles; He lost his mum and his sister just a few short years ago and within about a year of each other and that was tough. The pandemic obviously had a big impact on his business yet here they are, building back better as the Chancellor likes to say!A must listen to... What Jason has to share is so emotionally touching and will no doubt resonate with many out there, giving them hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel.To find out more or get in touch with Jason:WebsiteTwitterThank you to Show Sponsors: Intune PR, JADE Window Cleaning and Support Services
