If you had $200K in your account that you knew you’d never need, who would you hire to make your life better? Who would take the stress, frustration, and burnout off your plate?
That person exists.
But could your pricing be the reason you don’t have that $200K yet?
In this interview with Luke (from an Australian podcast), we break down the biggest business challenges—pricing, profit margins, scaling beyond mowing, and the hardest phase of business growth.
Topics We Cover:
✅ The breaking point in business—and what brings relief
âś… How pricing issues stop you from growing
✅ Why mowing is no longer a good business (and what’s next)
âś… Expanding into more complicated, higher-margin services
✅ The truth about profit margins—what’s realistic at scale
✅ My 3-year sabbatical—what I learned & what’s next
I also added my thoughts at the end of most sections to expand on key points.
