EPISODE Notes

Stop being the best-paid tradie in your company and start being a true business owner.

If you’ve grown your construction business, but still find yourself caught between running sites, chasing materials, and putting out fires – you’re spending more time behind the steering wheel and on your phone than building your business.

In this episode of The Builder’s Ladder, host Marti Amos sits down with Matt Banks, a construction coach with 15 years of business experience in construction.

Matt shares his journey from running a chaotic operation with 25 staff to helping builders implement systems that create both profit and freedom.

Learn why most builders stay stuck in their business…

How to keep quality consistent across different project managers…

And the powerful ‘PSR’ framework that simplifies problem-solving – by having team members come to you with solutions, not problems.

Matt also breaks down the common mistakes that keep builders trapped in day-to-day operations.

About Your Hosts

Too many building company owners work long hours for very little profit, aren’t able to spend time with their families, and are stressed to the limit.

This is not your fault.

You can be the best builder in the world but trade school doesn’t teach you how to run a business.

This is why we created The Professional Builder.

Gaining control over your business doesn’t need to be hard.

Our proven systems have been used by 5,000+ builders from New Zealand, Australia, USA, UK, Canada, and all around the world to get back their freedom.
