Young Entrepreneur: Behind Every Great Company Is A Great Team - Jim Treliving

By Adam Toren

Jim Treliving is just your average guy who found something he loved and went after it. While he does regret not starting out in his own business sooner, he is pleased with what he has done with his Boston Pizza restaurant chain since taking it over.

As a former Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer, Treliving runs his business with the same attributes learned in his law enforcement career. He is disciplined, tough with establishing streamlined operations and loyal to his team members. “The very first thing you need is a good business plan. The second thing is to figure out exactly what will cause your business cash flow to jump to the next level. Then you project your cash flow. And then you sit down and say: this is what I’m going to do, and this is how I’m going to do it. And then you go out and work and work till you get it done. It’s all pretty simple, actually, if you just stop and think about it!” (more)
