He's gone from running a humble domestic electrical company to rapidly expanding into a high-growth solar business, all thanks to the guidance and support of the Trade Mastermind. Do you ever find yourself stuck in your business, struggling to make it big, or contemplating giving up on your dreams? Chris was there too.

In this captivating conversation, you'll discover how Chris turned his business fortunes around, elevating his annual revenue from a modest 300K to an astonishing 3 million dollars within just 18 months.

However, the Trade Mastermind's guidance led him to a different, yet more lucrative path. The key takeaway here is the importance of tracking profits rather than chasing revenue blindly, a common pitfall for many tradespeople.
