‘Everyone’s Favourite Tradie’, Simon Stevenson answers all the listeners' home reno/DIY questions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How many men out there feel like they don't belong in the industry? How many men wish they had s community of guys with similar values to them that they could connect with at work and in the construction industry in general?How many parents wish there was a community filled with positive, strong role models for their sons to be mentored by inside the construction industry?How many men of the 7 a day that kill themselves in this country are men who could still be here for their families if they had a place to express themselves? If they knew of a culture where men supported men and there was hope of finding a better way to live life?We say "It aint weak to speak" but what does the culture really tell men? Where are the communities inside of construction that actually promote that and provide a space for men to be vulnerable and to feel heard?This week I lay out my plan to create The Conscious Tradie - A space where we can start to build this culture out from the ground up and create the communityI wish I had 20 years ago.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant sits down with Michael and Nicole Kowalczyk from the Tailored Property Group to discuss how determination, education, and strategy can lead to a successful portfolio. Starting from modest beginnings, Michael, a tradie, and Nicole, a nurse, began investing in property in their early 20s. By 2017, the couple struggled and found themselves financially stuck with negative gearing of $40,000 while Nicole was pregnant, adding pressure to their situation. After realising their buyer's agent wasn't meeting their needs, they took control, educated themselves, and transformed their portfolio within two years, emphasising that trust and referrals were the driving forces behind their business growth. This belief shaped the foundation of their company, Tailored Property Group, which focuses on personalised, strategy-driven advice. Unlike typical data-heavy agencies, they prioritise actionable strategies aligned with client budgets. Their approach has paid off, with their clients achieving an average capital growth of 28.6 per cent in 2024, underscoring the importance of grit, education, and a clear purpose in property investing. They advise investors to set clear goals, form a solid team, and embrace calculated risks, highlighting that property is not just a financial tool but also a means to achieve life goals.

Welcome to Episode 1 of Tradie Month! Now, you know we love a listical, and in true Tim & Dan fashion we are making a list of the 5 biggest killers of cashflow for tradies.  

During the election campaign, both major parties have announced plans to boost tradie numbers in Australia to help increase the supply of new homes. - 選挙運動期間中、二大政党は揃って「住宅の供給を増やすため、国内のトレイディー（技術職）の数を増やす」と発言しました。

During the election campaign, both major parties have announced plans to boost tradie numbers in Australia to help increase the supply of new homes. Builders welcome the move to fast-track tradie qualifications, but say there still won't be enough workers to build more than a million new homes that have been promised in the next five years without skilled labour from overseas. - अस्ट्रेलियामा यति बेला निर्वाचन अभियानको बेलामा दुवै ठुला पार्टीहरूले अस्ट्रेलियामा ‘ट्रेडी' वा प्राविधिक श्रमिकको सङ्ख्या बढाउने योजना घोषणा गरेका छन्। निर्माण व्यवसायसँग सम्बन्धित निकायहरूले ट्रेडीहरूको योग्यता छिटो प्रमाणित गर्ने कदमलाई स्वागत गरेका छन्। तर उनीहरूको भनाइ छ कि दक्ष विदेशी श्रमिक बिना पाँच वर्षभित्र वाचा गरिएको १० लाख भन्दा बढी नयाँ घर बनाउन पर्याप्त श्रमिक छैनन्।

During the election campaign, both major parties have announced plans to boost tradie numbers in Australia to help increase the supply of new homes. - Pangako ng mga pangunahing partido na magtayo ng maraming bahay upang punan ang kakulangan, maitutupad nga ba ito sa gitna ng kakulangan sa mga manggagawa?

Most people recovering from an illness as serious as breast cancer would probably take it easy and do as little as possible - but not Nelson woman Wendy Ramsay. At 56, Wendy has just become a qualified tradie. A tiler to be exact - having just finished her apprenticeship under the Building and Construction training organisation BCITO. That's despite a difficult battle with cancer.

A Sydney Morning Herald investigation has revealed that over 750 tradies obtained fake qualifications through a criminal syndicate and were granted licences by NSW authorities. Despite the alarm being raised nearly a year ago, only 63 high-risk licences have been cancelled so far, with hundreds more still under review. The ongoing scandal, part of the Herald’s Shoddy Sydney series, highlights the cost of unqualified work—$700 million in annual building defects—and raises serious questions about the integrity of NSW's licensing system. NSW Building Commissioner James Sherrard says the issue is being addressed, but many licences remain active.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trades business owners find themselves without work in the pipeline all too often. Choosing to focus on other, seemingly more important parts of their businesses because at that moment they had work. But when the work suddenly dries up it's a lack of consistent marketing activity that we have to focus on as the culprit here. This is a common mistake though and maybe more so for tradies than other business owners because their focus is on the work and the outcome (which is important). As a business coach for tradies and builders, part of my job is to help my clients guard against this. To build a Marketing Machine that keeps working all the time so you don't end up in this sh*ty position.This video is about the fact that marketing is a numbers game and how to play it. When you go quiet, two numbers are important - your marketing activity that finds opportunities and your sales funnel as your forecast - all the opportunities you could win (right now if you don't find any more).You need to be measuring these numbers so you're not at risk of work drying up… I've made a chart to help you. Comment ‘CHART' and I'll send it and comment ‘CALL' and I'll talk to you about whether my coaching can help you.--------------------------------------If you're interested in growing your trade business, head over to our website and you can read some more of these Tradies Toolbox Tips: https://www.smallfish.com.au/trades-business-coaching/Book a money-maker call: https://www.smallfish.com.au/chatFOLLOW US AT:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smallfishcoach/Twitter: https://twitter.com/smallfishcoachInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/smallfishbusinesscoach/YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/smallfishau

Marketing is a big topic, isn't it? And there are so many elements, so many potential areas of focus. So it's super easy to get overwhelmed about what marketing is right for your business. And that's the question this week - what marketing should you be doing? The answer is - it depends... a vague answer I know. Basically, the marketing you do is based on the type of trades business you run and the customers you are trying to attract. Check out this week's video to understand what I mean here and to find out which marketing you should be doing. Oh and raise your hand for the guide. It'll help as well. --------------------------------------If you're interested in growing your trade business, head over to our website and you can read some more of these Tradies Toolbox Tips: https://www.smallfish.com.au/trades-business-coaching/Book a money-maker call: https://www.smallfish.com.au/chatFOLLOW US AT:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smallfishcoach/Twitter: https://twitter.com/smallfishcoachInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/smallfishbusinesscoach/YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/smallfishau
