“My wife said to me after dinner one evening, ‘why don’t you do it?’”
Plucking up the courage to back your entrepreneurial spirit is difficult, especially when your main competitors would be the major international phone companies.
That’s what Trevor Devlin, Founder and Managing Director of Full Signal, was facing into when he left his full-time job at a major lift company. He spotted a gap in the market and went for it.
Now, Full Signal supplies, installs and monitors GSM phone lines for emergency response in lifts - a low-cost alternative to expensive landline charges.
Trevor joins Elaine Carroll on the latest episode of AIBF Business Talk to reflect on his own experience of starting a business, overcoming the anxiety of challenging the biggest phone companies, and why competition is good for business.
Full Signal, based in Santry, Dublin, is a four-time Business All-Star with the All-Ireland Business Foundation (AIBF).
The AIBF would like to thank Trevor for sharing his valuable insights with fellow TRIBE members and the wider public.
