That Will Never Work

#61: The Six Month Work Year

Jul 26, 2022

Matt has an intriguing question - can a founder work just six months of the year and still have a successful business? Frightmare - his UK based scare attraction - turns a great profit every year.   But while the event itself is seasonal, he’s realized that to be a success the business needs backroom staff year round.  But he’d rather spend the off season in his camper, driving between the ski resorts of Europe.  Can a work-life balance really extend to taking 6 full months of Van Life at a time?   Or is it just a company culture disaster waiting to happen?

Listen in as Marc helps explore whether it's possible to have it all...
