  • #050: Barry Wallace (Dash Burger)

    Free for all listeners: The Ultimate Guide to Automatic Bookkeeping

    This week I had a chat with Barry Wallace, Managing Director of Dash Burger, a fast casual restaurant that specialises in something called a smash burger.

    Barry opened the first location on Kevin St just 18 months ago, and the concept has taken off like a rocket. There is already a second location on Capel St with imminent plans to expand nationwide.

    In this chat, we talk about Barry’s creative passion for food and his eagerness to constantly improve on his ideas… through what he calls, marginal gains.

    We also talk about Barry’s journey in business, from humble beginnings in food trucks, to franchising in Europe and finally creating Dash Burger, his proverbial secret sauce.

    This week I caught up with Jim Breen, Founder and Executive Chairman of Pulse Learning.

    Jim set up the business in 1999, with start up capital of just 10 pounds. It’s now a global organisation with an enviable list of clients and revenues in the tens of the millions!

    In this interview, Jim talks about his early days as a civil engineer, the steps he took to start Pulse Learning, and how becoming RTE's Secret Millionaire led to Jim Founding the Cycle Against Suicide an organisation set up to raise awareness of the supports available for anyone battling depression or self-harm.

In this conversation Phillip talks about what he learnt growing up in the family business and how they've grown Thérapie Clinic from a single location to a multi-national business with even bigger ambitions.
