Your Business Assets
Introduced by Matthew Jones, Cube Performance.
We start with you at the very basic level… have you secured or optimally setup your business and its assets?

Introduced by Matt Jones, The Site Shed.
A good Social Media and online presence is essential for growing Tradie businesses. Yet many of us are resistant to change and new technology.
Perhaps we don’t understand the space, or we simply don’t have time to deal with it. This week we focus on establishing or reviewing the essentials, which are critical for later activities for your marketing, advertising and sales strategies.

Handling Phone Calls (like a Pro!)
Introduced by Edward Plant, Institute of Couples in Business.
The lifeline to a Tradie business, in terms of new work, is the phone. Yet so many of us don’t really want to talk with anyone and see the phone as a distraction.
Furthermore, handling phone calls, your voicemail greetings and leaving messages for others is handled poorly and yields poor results. Getting this seemingly small component of business right, means so much for growth journey ahead.

System & Process – ‘Recipes to Repeat‘
Many people use the phrase “systems and processes” rather loosely. It’s a rooky mistake.
Travis Reading takes you through this powerful module of implementation.
There is only one system… your business! Your business “system” then consists of many processes.
In a Tradie business, the vast majority of processes are, and will always remain human processes. Human processes are simply a “recipe” to show somebody how to complete a task optimally.
You will master creating and improving processes, and building your business system. This will greatly leverage your ability to scale and grow your business predictably.
