Just the real stuff that changed everything: fixing pricing, chasing invoices properly, cutting off slow payers, and putting lead generation on the calendar so it actually happens.

We talk about what it’s like when you’re doing everything yourself, why scripts can make sales calls harder, and how Greg built confidence in his rates by understanding his numbers. He also shares how tracking conversions and job margins helped him double down on the right clients, walk away from the wrong ones, and stop discounting just to win work.

You’ll hear practical lessons on hiring for culture, delegating without losing control, building a crew that performs, and shifting your mindset so problems don’t feel world ending. If you want a trade business that runs smoother, pays you properly, and keeps growing without burning you out, you’ll get a lot from this one.
