#59: Linley Lewis — Co-Founder of Ticket to Ride on Pivoting During the Pandemic - a podcast by Oli Russell-Cowan

from 2021-10-11T11:00

:: ::

Linley Lewis is the Co-Founder of Ticket to Ride, Wavelength Media and the Blue Earth Summit. 

Linley discusses how he came up with the idea of starting an action sports travel business with his best mate Will Hayler whilst studying at University. How they grew their travel company after their original launch with a 1000 mile road trip across South Africa combining surf coaching, community work and adventure. He talks about why they acquired Wavelength Surfing Magazine and how it became part of Wavelength Media and the pivot from his travel company during the global pandemic.

Food for thought:

  • The value in travel is in unique trips and returning customers.
  • Surfers, snowboarders, cyclists by nature care because it's the playground they’re living in. 
  • Ultimately businesses are going to drive long lasting change.

Enjoy and get rad!
