Uncommon Ground Ep 4 – Build a Team That Scales Without You (with Shane Malpass)What does it really take to build a market-dominant business from nothing, especially in an industry everyone underestimates?
In this episode of Uncommon Ground, Josh Turner sits down with Shane Malpass, founder of We Buy Any Motorcaravan, who bootstrapped a wild idea with his dad in 2007…
and scaled it into a £27M business that runs without him.
Together, we unpack:How Shane walked door to door when most people wouldn’t even pick up the phone
The pivotal change in his marketing that unlocked explosive brand growth (and nearly broke the business)
Building team culture: built a 40+ team that grew the business without relying on him.
The risk that no one talks about is that 80% of your revenue depends on a single platform.
How radical transparency, rock-solid integrity, and one marketing book changed everything, whether you're bootstrapping your way to the top or scaling through stormy seasons, this conversation is going to put you in the right direction.
