EPISODE Notes

Builders waste thousands on websites, ads, and “shiny object” marketing strategies that deliver zero results. But what if your entire marketing strategy could fit on one page?

Join Owen Chambers as he interviews Alan Dib, author of “The One Page Marketing Plan” (nearly 1 million copies sold worldwide). Discover why the most successful builders focus on just 2-3 marketing channels instead of trying everything, and learn the exact framework that transforms scattered efforts into predictable profit.

Alan shares real building examples, including a bathroom renovation company that charges 150% more than competitors by mastering one simple promise, plus the two key numbers every builder must track to turn marketing from a casino gamble into a reliable vending machine.

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.
