Growing a ground transportation company is hard. Growing one that buyers actually want is even harder.

In this episode of the Ground Transportation Podcast, Ken Lucci speaks with Randy Allen, former CEO of James Limousine, about his journey building a respected regional transportation company and successfully selling it after nearly two decades.

Randy explains how James Limousine:

• Grew from $1M to $4M in revenue over 17 years
• Built a premium brand through community involvement and trust
• Used profit-sharing to retain drivers and reduce risk
• Focused on corporate clients without ignoring retail opportunities
• Avoided common “herd mentality” mistakes in equipment and technology
• Prepared clean financials and systems that attracted qualified buyers

The conversation also explores leadership fatigue, succession readiness, and why adaptability will define the next five years of the transportation industry.

This episode is a practical, candid look at scaling, culture, branding, and exit strategy — from someone who’s lived it.
