The Tradie Show
The Tradie Show is the podcast for tradies who are stuck working ‘IN’ the business instead of working ‘ON’ it. We know you’ve got big goals, but right now you probably feel like a slave to your own creation.
TAFE taught you to be a great tradie, but not a great business owner. It’s lonely, stressful and not your fault. We get it, we’ve been there too, deep in the trenches (literally) growing a plumbing business in Sydney. Life looked great on the outside, but behind the scenes, we were stressed out of our eyeballs.
As a result we almost lost everything ... we almost lost our business, our home and our marriage, but thankfully we came out the other side with a thriving business, completely off the tools and only working 2 hours p/week. How? Well, that's what we share here on The Tradie Show.
Following our success, we vowed to help other tradies, so you don’t have to go through what we did. We didn’t have any guidance and even when we tried to hire a coach, he knew nothing about the trade industry, so we ended up coaching him.
That experience inspired us to set up our amazing community and coaching program, Lifestyle Tradie to share the advice we wish we had about what it really takes to build a successful trade business and live the lifestyle you deserve.
And now The Tradie Show is an extension of that community.
So, if you’re a plumber, electrician, painter, landscaper, carpenter, builder, bricklayer, concretor, contractor, gardener, window washer, aborist, tiler, metal fabricator, roofer, glazier, handyman services, HVAC, solar installation services or any other trade business or trade service, then tune into The Tradie Show for no-fluff advice, fun banter and inspiring interviews to help you get results. BIG RESULTS!

3 Steps to More Profitable Jobs (Without Taking on More Work)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most tradies think they’ve got a marketing problem.
They don’t.
They’ve got a clarity problem.
In this first episode of our 3-part series, Andy and Angela break down why most trade businesses are attracting the wrong jobs, the wrong customers, and wasting time on work that doesn’t actually make them money.
Before you spend another dollar on marketing… you need to get this right.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why saying “yes” to every job is costing you profit
- The real reason you’re attracting low-quality or time-wasting enquiries
- How to identify your most profitable products and services
- Why “more work” is not the answer… and what actually is
- How to define your A-grade customer properly
- The difference between marketing by default vs authority marketing
- How to position your business so the right customers come to you
- The simple shift that helps you qualify jobs faster (and stop wasting time quoting dead leads)
This is Part 1 of our 3-part series:
1️⃣ Attract the right work
2️⃣ Convert that work into jobs
3️⃣ Multiply the value of every job you win
👉 The next two episodes are coming, and they’ll completely change how you think about quoting and profit in your business.
If you don’t decide what work your business is built around…
You’ll keep attracting everything…
And profiting from nothing.
