Series: The Top 3 Mistakes Growing Trade Businesses Make Cohost: Danny Kerr from BT Academy

As business owners, we often have to wear a lot of hats. One minute we're sales, the next we're accounts, next we're HR. In this podcast, Danny runs through some frameworks that he teaches that can help you apply your time better within your own schedule and the schedule of your team.

This is part three of the three-part series. Here is the link to episode one - Attracting the right talent. Here's the link to spidoe two - Lack of focus on Gross Profit Margin

Based out of British Colombia, Canada, BT Academy exists to teach businesses how to create a sustainable business structure, using the principles of a franchise model.

Franchises depend heavily on systems and processes, which serves as the fundamental lynch-pin in a franchises ability to operate out of multiple locations while delivering a consistent product/service.

My co-host in this series, Danny Kerr, has a background in franchising. A few years ago, he decided it would be a good idea to educate trade business owners how they can create similar frameworks in their own businesses.

As a result, BT Academy was born and they now help hundreds of organisations, right across Canada and the United States take their businesses to a level that is systemised, profitable and independent of any one person (in most cases the business owner).

In this series, we'll be talking about what Danny considers the Top 3 mistakes that trade business owners make, from his experience with dealing with hundreds of organisations. Those areas are:

  1. Attracting the right talent
  2. Lack of focus on Gross Profit Margin
  3. The wrong prioritisation of time
