HELPING NEW ZEALAND’S TRADES-BASED BUSINESSES THRIVE.

Hi. My name is Andy Burrows and I help the owners of trades-based businesses like you address your business frustrations and help you get a life. I specialise in mentoring and coaching business owners associated with the construction industry: builders, electricans, plumbers, HVAC and other specialist contactors.

The typical business owners I work with love what they do, are happiest solving technical challenges for their clients, but feels held back by all the other stuff that is essential in running a successful business.

What’s keeping you up at night or away from your family?

Many trades-based business owners feel stuck and stressed because they are experiencing:

• The challenges of building a marketing and sales system alone;
• Clients from hell who are over demanding and slow to pay;
• Staff who don’t meet your high-standard of work, resulting in too many call-backs and the wrong workplace culture;
• The demands of all the quoting and administration that keep you up all hours of the night.

SPECIALIST BUSINESS COACHING FOR CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS OWNERS.

Even if you have gone through an apprenticeship and other extensive trade training the chances are it did not include much coaching, if any, on how to run a business. Correct? You are expected to pick that knowledge up along the way, via the school of hard knocks. That’s the slow, lonely and unproductive way of doing it. You might think it is the cheaper way, but the mistakes you are likely to make along the way, together with the longer time it takes to gain the experience, is probably  cost you thousands of dollars and a whole lot of extra stress.

The good news is that these problems can all be overcome by partnering with an industry-specific business coach. I’ll help you develop the right systems, the right culture and the accountability so you can progress onto the next exciting phase of your business.
