About this episode
April hits, school holidays start, Easter rolls around, and for most trade businesses in Perth the work drops off fast. So what do you actually do about it?
Kane sits down with Steve from E-Maintain, an electrical business coming up on its two year mark, to talk about what getting consistent work actually looks like when you’re small, lean, and can’t afford to get it wrong. They cover the real cost of paid advertising versus community Facebook groups versus flyer drops, why your relationship with a property manager might be worth more than any Google ad, and the hiring mistake that slows most new trade businesses down before they even get started.
Two operators still in the thick of it, not coaches who left the tools a decade ago.
