Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Andrew Boyle, and I'm a self-made entrepreneur with a story to tell. My journey began at just 16 years old, when I dropped out of high school to work at my dad's furniture store. It was there that I discovered my passion for sales, and I quickly learned the ins and outs of the business.

By the time I was 21, I had saved up enough money to start my own shed lot. It was a risky move, but I was confident in my abilities and determined to succeed. And I did - my shed lot was a huge success, and by the age of 25, I was able to purchase my own furniture store.

My first year in business was a remarkable success - I was up 35% in sales, which allowed me to purchase even more stores and join forces with my brother Gary. Today, we have 26 retail locations and over $90 million in annual retail sales.

However, my success wasn't without its challenges. I tried multiple different training companies to help train our employees, but none of them seemed to relate to the everyday sales associates. So, I decided to create my own training platform to help train our employees, and it proved to be highly effective.

Now, I want to help other furniture owners like myself with simple sales training. I'm confident that my experience and expertise can help others achieve the same level of success that I have. So, whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, let me help you achieve your sales goals. guarantee that your tickets will be authentic and delivered on time.

About Shed Gal

After having a horrible experience trying to buy a shed herself, Shed Gal was founded in 2017 by Susan Frair as a family-owned business specializing in wood-built sheds near Seattle, Washington. Rapid growth led to the inclusion of metal buildings in 2019, where we quickly established ourselves as a top dealer in Washington State. Expanding our reach, we opened locations in Arizona in 2020 and quickly became a top selling dealer in the entire industry.

After completely revamping her business model in 2024, Susan has now opened Super-Sized display lots in South Carolina, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. Arizona will follow in September and Tennessee will be up next. Our ambitious goal is to have a presence in ten states by the end of 2025. Our goal is to have the largest and most diverse display lots in the industry.

Susan hosts "Magnificent Mondays" on the Shed Geek podcast and has helped dealers nationwide to grow their businesses, by providing training and support whenever needed.

Rumor has it, we might even be the first to introduce a thrilling Ninja Warrior course at one of our display lots!
