Description

If you’re a tradie and you’ve gone out on your own you’ve probably done it because you want more out of your life… to earn more money, build wealth, have more free time with your family and live a great lifestyle. 

But for so many business owners they end up working long hours, not generating enough profit and ending up tired, stressed and with no time to connect with the very thing that matters to them most … their families. 

In The Trade Den Podcast, we pull back the curtain to share the same tools, stories and strategies that have helped hundreds of businessmen in the trades and construction industry transform their businesses and reconnect with their families. 

If you’re ready to take back control of your business and life you’re in the right place, click follow so you don’t miss a single episode and head to The Trade Den to join our Facebook Community.
