There's a reason EVERY professional athlete has a coach; there's a reason EVERY successful person has a mentor: and there's a reason EVERY great company has a board of directors. Going it alone will only get you so far. You need a great team around you – period. The increasing pace and competition in the world of business makes it difficult to keep up with the changes in the industry, let alone the latest developments in sales, marketing, hiring, and management strategies.

A specialist business coach for many is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity. While you can run your business and survive without a coach, can you reach your maximum potential? And if you can, at what cost? After how much time? Partnering with experts will allow you to hit and exceed your goals much faster and with fewer scars.

Simple. Some people love golf, some love fishing, we love business. At Trade Business Accountants all that we do is help Australian trade and construction business owners improve their financials, pricing, marketing, team, systems, sales, and the quality of their life they get from their business.

For years we have helped clients achieve amazing results which you can read all throughout this information pack. Our strategies are designed for this industry and apply to all businesses no matter the trade or niche.

The average net profit increase within 12 months of working with our team is 318% (meaning half do better!), so say you’re making $60,000 in net profit – based off our data, chances are you’ll be making $190,800 12 months later working with our team (just take another look at our 12-month transformations to see for yourself because you could be next!).

As the age old saying goes, ‘if it were easy everyone would do it’ – no matter what anyone will try to tell you, running a business will always require work. That being said, while it’s hard building an exceptional business, it’s also hard running a business that makes little money and doesn’t provide the freedom and flexibility of life that you desire. Choose your hard. What work you DO makes all the difference.

To build and scale a business or increase profitability there will be work required, but once our proven strategies are put in place the hard work is done – so the faster you implement what we teach, the better, more profitable, and easier to run your business becomes. With our best practice advice, systems, guidance and help – the work that you do will have a much bigger impact on your business and bottom line. The longer you work with us the easier business becomes.

Working with TBA isn’t a matter of ‘doing more’, it’s actually about doing LESS. In our experience business owners often get caught up in busy work that detracts from the activities that really move the money needle. With focus on a few key levers within your business we will help you create more time to get better results – getting more work done with much less effort.

Working with our team you’ll find that you’re not working more, you’re just working differently, and the results of what you DO work on will stack very quickly. So if you’re thinking that you’ll sign up with our team once you’re not busy, the day will never come. The best time to work with our team is WHEN you’re busy and have no time – because that’s exactly what we’ll help you fix.

We do not have any lock in contracts or minimum commitment. We’re a subscription-based service where our success is a result of our ability to provide exceptional value and consistent results ongoing. If you no longer wish to work with us (or vice versa), we shouldn’t have to resort back to legal contracts. If you’re unhappy or find that working with our team just isn’t right for your business, you’re free to leave at any time. We’re confident in our service and our ability to help our clients, having no lock in contract simply makes the decision for new clients to get started easier with no risk.

If you’re here reading this document, immediately. Seriously. Before you take another step, waste another dollar, lose another job, work too many hours, miss another family event or forget another special occasion.

You owe it to yourself to take advantage of what Trade Business Accountants can offer. Far too many business owners just wait and see. They delay and they don’t make the decision. The result? Industry average net profit margins are 4.8%, not even enough margin to breakeven with cash flow, and insolvency rates are through the roof.

Working harder or longer hours is not the solution. Just remember that what you know got you to where you are today, but to get to where you want to go, you’ve got to change how you’re operating. There is no time like the present to get started on the journey to your dreams and goals. Start now and get that extra profit, time, and freedom you deserve. 

Depending on what package you choose to go with, typically we handle the bookkeeping, compliance, tax, and accounting for all our clients to streamline their financials. Then in addition to this we meet fortnightly for 1-on-1 advisory meetings to analyse your figures, discuss your business, and implement proven strategies to improve.

After each meeting you’ll be sent relevant resources, templates, and tools to use with the ability to call, text or email in-between meetings. Our team will write, review, design and help optimise all aspects within your business whether it be job ads, marketing information packs, sales scripts – you name it, we’ll do it.

Absolutely. Our primary goal is to ensure your business achieves our benchmark margin targets (40% - 50% gross profit margin + 15% - 25% net profit margin), improve cash flow, and catch up on any outstanding debts. In addition, for many clients we’re able to engage a small business restructure to wipe down debts to cents on the dollar (sometimes clearing hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of debt).

Working with TBA you’ll have a dedicated senior bookkeeper, tax accountant, and business coach. You can contact any of our team members via email or phone to ask questions, get support, or book in longer video meetings. Our service is a fixed monthly fee so you won’t be charged every time you’d like to speak with us – our mission is to see you succeed, our support is unlimited.

Getting started takes just minutes.

Sign up with TBA and within seconds you will receive an onboarding email outlining the next steps to book in your first meeting with our team. During your first 4 weeks working with our team you’ll meet weekly to get onboarded. You’ll meet with our business advisors to discuss your financials, set performance targets and goals, develop a clear strategy, and overcome any bleeding neck issues within your business. As well as meeting with our accounting team to discuss tax and your bookkeeping.

In short, no. We don’t just sell you on a dream, throw you in a Facebook group with other contractors with the same problems, leave you to watch a bunch of pre-recorded videos, and just hope you’ll ‘figure it out’ with a weekly group call. Your business is unique and so are the very problems and challenges that you’re looking to overcome. Problems that can ONLY be solved effectively through tailored, sleeves rolled up, straight to the point, no BS, 1-on-1 coaching.

Getting told exactly what needs to happen, with a complete step-by-step process to do it, with hands on help from experienced coaches who’ve been there and done it before. This is all about giving YOU absolute clarity on YOUR business model – from your numbers, pricing strategy, opportunity channels, market messaging, team structures, sales process, to systems building, and everything in-between.

We’ll work with you 1-on-1 to help you reach your profit goals and create a systemised business where you work fewer hours and enjoy life more. You’ll have systems for pricing, hiring, managing your financials and cash flow, lead generation, sales conversion, streamlining administration and much more. Unlike other programs, we don’t just show you what to do, we give you the tools, systems, and processes as well as help you implement everything each step of the way.

Not only will you get great results, but you’ll end up with an entrepreneurial education that is second to none – knowledge that you can use over and over again in any business you choose to. As Socrates once stated: The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
