Workflo Solutions - Michael Field | Edinburgh Business Stories Ep96

In this episode of Edinburgh Business Stories, we’re joined by Michael Field, Managing Director of Workflo Solutions, to hear how he built the business from scratch and evolved it from a print-focused company into a wider managed services provider. Michael shares the decision to leave Sky and start his own business, the importance of finding a genuine gap in the market, and why service became such a key part of Workflo’s offering. He also talks about seeing the potential decline of print, adapting ahead of the curve, and using acquisitions to bring new skills into the business. Along the way, Michael reflects on growing the company from zero customers to millions in revenue, what he has learned through self-education, and why recognising what you don’t know can be one of the most valuable skills in business. A great conversation about adapting to change, building around customer needs, and knowing when it’s time to evolve.
