In this episode of the UpScale Business Podcast, Larry and Tiarne dive into practical end of financial year strategies every tradie should know. From understanding your numbers early to making smarter decisions around tax, cash flow and business structure, this is a real-world guide to getting ahead before EOFY hits.

They cover how to estimate your tax position, when to speak to your accountant, and the common mistakes tradies make by waiting too long. You’ll also learn simple ways to manage your profit, reduce tax where it makes sense, and avoid spending money just for the sake of it.

The conversation also goes deeper into the bigger picture. It’s not just about paying less tax. It’s about balancing cash flow, planning for growth, and setting your business up for long-term success whether that’s scaling, buying a home, or eventually selling your business.

If you’ve ever felt caught off guard by a tax bill or unsure how your business is really performing, this episode will help you take control and make smarter decisions moving forward.

We also touch on the reality many tradies face during this time of year. Financial pressure, stress, and uncertainty are common, and it’s important to know support is out there.

This year, the UpScale team are taking on the Gold Coast Marathon to raise funds for TIACS, a free mental health support service for blue-collar workers.
