Construction Industry Marketing And Business Tips For Tradesmen: Rise Of The Trades · 120. 7 Steps To Get Off The Tools And Grow Your Trades Or Construction Business · 1 Jul 2026 podcast

What I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna scale it back.

And what I did is I scaled my business back and all of a sudden I had to let a few people go, which meant I had to come back out of the office, let's say, back onto the tools, but then the vicious cycle starts all over again.

Yeah, I started earning a bit more money and the job started to get a bit more organized, but I felt trapped.

I couldn't grow my business because I couldn't spend enough time in the office, doing the office side and developing the business because I was still back on the tools.

What did I do?

Another year, 18 month of being on the tools.

I came off the tools.

Thought I'd learnt by my own past mistakes.

Came off the tools again.

Same thing happened a year later.

I'm back on the tools.

Because the business couldn't run without me being on the tools.

And I think for many people listening to this, if you've ever tried to get off the tools, you may well have been in that same position where you come off thinking you've cracked it, but then you've got to go jump back onto the tools for whatever reason, then you're off, then you're on, then you're off.

So in this episode, what I want to share with you are seven crucial areas of your business that you've got to implement to make sure that you actually get off them tools, you do it the right way, but more importantly, you stay off the tools so you can continue to build and grow and scale your business.

And the seven crucial areas that I'm going to walk you through.

And what I've decided to do is, rather than just explain each area and spend five, ten minutes going into the strategy of each area, with this being the the one year anniversary.

I've been back into our analytics of each episode.

And I've looked to each episode

And out of these seven crucial areas, which episodes have got the most amount of downloads in these seven different areas?
