Most trades business owners wait too long to get systems… 

They know they need them...  

But they put off systemizing... 

Until they’ve put out that fire... 

Until they hire that new tradesman... 

Until life gets less hectic... 

John Anderson, owner of electrical business JAM Group, waited till the very worst moment... 

A serious accident – where he broke his femur. 

Suddenly, John was in hospital for 9 days... 

With a business with no systems... 

No structure...

And no plan to run without him... 

But John used the moment as a wake-up call... 

And finally changed his business so he wasn’t the only person holding it together... 

And his team could stand on their own two feet. 

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN FROM LISTENING TO TODAY’S PODCAST: 

1. How John doubled his revenue and his margins... in a soft economy  
2. How “The Jam Hammer” gets his guys fired up and working to their fullest  
3. Why John ditching “labor-only” jobs was the smartest thing he ever did for profit  
4. The #1 move that fixed John’s cash flow and took the stress out of payday  
5. Why John’s traded weekend invoicing... with flying lessons

If you’ve ever said “I really need systems in my business”...

But then got swamped by work... 

And never got round to it... 

You’re not alone. 

Most trades business owners know systems will save them a bunch of time and stress... 

But they don’t start.

Because it’s overwhelming. 

There’s just too much to systemize: 

Pricing... Invoicing... End of job checklists... Customer comms... Office admin... Project handovers...  

The list goes on and on... 

So instead of doing something...  

You do nothing. 

And the business keeps revolving around you. 

Here’s the good news: 

You don’t need to systemize everything at once. 

You just need to start... 

But there's a right way to do it.

It’s the 5th time your team member’s called today... 

Claiming they “don’t know how to do it...” 

Asking you the question... 

Wanting you to solve their problem.

Something they should be able to figure out on their own. 

And truth is... they can.

They just don’t have to. 

Cause it’s easier if you do it. 

So you get it out of the way. 

Just to keep things moving.

Just to get the job done. 

But now you’ve lost time. 

They’ve learned nothing. 

And you know exactly what’s going to happen tomorrow… 

The cycle of stupid questions starts again. 

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN FROM LISTENING TO TODAY’S PODCAST: 

1. A killer method to get your team solving their own problems (and saving you time)   
2. How to turn mistakes into learning opportunities (so they don’t happen over and over again)  
3. The best way to stop being the business babysitter (without someone spitting the dummy)
