Our guests on today’s episode are Scott Nichols and Patrick Butler from Floyd’s 99 Barbershop. These two "show up" and represent this incredible organization in very important and meaningful ways.
Floyd’s is an alternative twist on an old school classic
established in 1999 by brothers Paul, Rob and Bill O'Brien. Floyd’s
is not a traditional barbershop. It has thrived over the past
twenty years and carved out its niche in this industry.
Interestingly, Floyd’s 99 stylists and barbers offer a wide range
of services for men & women.. Each salon is designed to have a fun,
engaging neighborhood hangout vibe with great music, high energy
and lively conversations taking place. Of note, are the unique
murals that are painted on the exteriors of the buildings. This
spells out the individualism of each location.
Patrick is the Technical Director of Education at Floyd’s and has
over 25 years of industry experience. He spent 10 years at American
Crew as an International Educator where he helped to establish
technical academies across North America, Europe, and Asia. He has
taught men’s haircutting and grooming in over 10 different
countries and possesses a strong background in beauty and grooming
product sales and distribution.
Scott is a franchising guru. Recently appointed to lead Floyd’s
franchise related efforts, he brings over 25 years of franchise
experience working for nationally-recognized brands like Dunkin’
and Jimmy Johns. Scott will refine the company’s franchise program
and build a solid foundation that will work to take the brand to
its targeted expansion goals.
In this podcast, Patrick and Scott share their thoughts about
Floyd’s, which makes it a very special place to work, and what
makes it unique. They also give us some insight as to what has made
them successful and their vision for the future. Thank you for
listening to my interview with Patrick Butler and Scott Nichols
from Floyd’s 99 Barbershop!
