WHO WE ARE

About Greg

I run a 7-figure trades business and help tradie business owners build systems so they can step back without everything collapsing.

I've been where you are — working 80-hour weeks, missing family time, trapped in a business I thought would give me freedom.

I learned the hard way what it takes to remove yourself from operations and build a business that actually works.

Now I help tradies do the same — without the years of pain I went through.

The Full Story:

I started my first business thinking it would give me freedom.

More control. More money. More time with my family.

Instead, it took everything.

I was working 80-hour weeks. Phone going off at all hours. Stressed out of my mind. Revenue was climbing, but I was drowning.

At the end of the year, despite doing $5M in revenue, I made a loss.

Not a small one. A catastrophic one.

Debt I couldn't pay. Sleepless nights. Marriage collapsing because I was never home and always stressed.

I had to sell the family home. The house my kids grew up in.

My marriage fell apart. My relationship with my kids was strained. And the business I thought I was building "for them" destroyed everything that actually mattered.

Here's What I Didn't Understand:

I was great at my trade. Absolute shit at running a business.

I thought scaling meant more revenue. More jobs. More growth.

So I chased it. Hard.

And the business cracked.

Because I was scaling without foundations.

I was:

  • Quoting off gut feel instead of numbers

  • Running off activity instead of data

  • Letting growth increase pressure instead of freedom

  • Accepting chaos as the cost of success

  • Never separating being the operator from being the owner

The business looked successful from the outside.

Inside? It was drowning me.

When it collapsed, I lost everything.

That Pain Forced Me to Learn.

I had to rebuild. From nothing. But this time, I did it differently.

Real systems. Real numbers. Real control.

I stopped guessing at quotes and started knowing my margin.

I stopped reacting to problems and started planning ahead.

I stopped being the bottleneck and started building a business that could run without me.

The lessons that destroyed my first business are now the reason my second one makes hundreds of thousands in profit.

Here's The Truth I Learned:

Skill builds the work. Business knowledge builds the profit.

You can be the best tradie in your area and still go broke if you don't understand the business side.

Most tradies think the problem is they're not working hard enough.

It's not.

The problem is they learned to be great at their trade — but never learned how to run a business.

You did an apprenticeship to master your craft.

But the business side? You're winging it.

And that's why it's so hard.

What I Do Now:

I help tradie business owners build the systems and structure they need to:

✅ Remove themselves from the day-to-day

✅ Scale without chaos

✅ Control their cash flow

✅ Protect their margin

✅ Get their time back

✅ Actually be present for their family

Without losing control. Without revenue dropping. Without the business falling apart.

My Approach:

I don't teach theory. I teach what actually works.

The same systems I use in my own 7-figure trades business.

The same fundamentals that took me from:

  • Working 80 hours a week → 40 hours a week

  • Stressed and broke → Profitable and in control

  • Trapped in the business → Running it from a leadership position

  • Missing family time → Being present

This isn't about working harder. It's about building structure.

Systems. Cash flow. Pricing. Standards. Team accountability.

The stuff no one teaches tradies — but everyone needs.

Why I Do This

Because I know what it's like to sacrifice everything for a business that gives you nothing back.

I know what it's like to miss your kids' childhood while "building the dream."

I know what it's like to work yourself to the bone and still be broke.

And I know what it takes to fix it.

I don't want other tradies to lose what I lost.

I don't want them to wake up in 10 years and realize they missed everything that mattered.

I don't want them to destroy their family building a business that was supposed to provide for them.

Business is the greatest personal growth experience you'll ever go through — as long as you don't sacrifice your family for it.

The Bottom Line:

You didn't start a business to be more stressed and more broke than when you had a job.

You started it for freedom. For control. For your family.

But you can't get there by working harder.

You get there by building structure.

And that's exactly what I help you do.

My Mission:

Help tradie business owners remove themselves from operations, scale without chaos, and get their time back — so they don't miss the moments that actually matter.

Because the business will always need something.

But your family needs you now.
