The problem

Plenty of work, plenty of quotes against yours, and the margin lost between them.

Victoria has the biggest residential building pipeline in the country and the longest list of people quoting on it. Builders carry progress claims, variations and the paperwork that comes with domestic building contracts; subcontract trades wait on the builder to be paid. Coaching sets your price from your own costs, puts a quoting and follow-up process in that wins the right jobs, and gets the cashflow and the team sorted so the business runs without you on every site.

Coaching is with Tamika, online, wherever you are in Australia. Weekly calls and help between them.

Victoria builds more homes than any other state, and the trade businesses doing it feel the squeeze from both ends: a builder who wants the lowest subcontract price and clients who got five quotes. Domestic building contracts bring progress claims, variations and retention, and the money arrives in stages that rarely line up with the wages and the supplier bills. Winter slows the outdoor trades for months, and the overheads keep running.

Coaching starts with the number that most Victorian trade businesses have never built properly: a rate per hour or per unit that carries the real overheads, the wet weeks, the owner's wage and the profit the business is meant to make. From there it is quoting and follow-up that wins the clients who value the work, a budget and cashflow plan that survives the stages, and the roles and job tracking that let a crew run to your standard without you on every site.

Sessions are weekly and online, so the coaching is the same in Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Gippsland or the Murray. On-site sessions can be arranged.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Do you coach trade businesses in Victoria?

Yes. Coaching is online and Australia-wide, with weekly calls in your time zone, so Melbourne and regional Victoria get the same coaching as every other state.

How do I compete in Melbourne when there are always five quotes?

By not being the cheapest. Coaching builds your price from your costs and a quote that shows the client what they are paying for, so you win the clients who are choosing on more than price.

Can coaching help with progress claims and cashflow on bigger builds?

Yes. A budget, work-in-progress tracking and a claims schedule that matches the money going out are core to the financial work on Level 2.

Which trades do you coach in Victoria?

Builders, plumbers, electricians, carpenters, tilers, joiners, landscapers, painters, roofers, concreters, plasterers, bricklayers and the partners who run the office. Each trade has its own page.
