TradesElectriciansBusiness apps
Electrician Business AppsBusiness apps you build on your own data, so the crew and customers stop ringing you to ask where the job is.
Electrician business apps are the simple screens your crew and customers use instead of ringing you: today's jobs, the materials list, the test results, the quote waiting for approval. This page is for electrical business owners who want to build their own business apps on their own data, shaped around how their jobs run, starting from the free Tradies App.
The week this is about
Sound Like Your Electrical Business?
The owner's phone is the job tracking system
Most electrical business owners spend the day answering calls and texts: the apprentice asking which wholesaler account to use, the electrician asking for the circuit layout, the builder asking whether the rough-in is done. Every answer lives in the owner's head or phone, so the work stops whenever the owner is up a ladder.
Customers cannot see when the electrician is coming
A homeowner waiting on a switchboard upgrade or an EV charger install has no way to see the booking, the quote status or what to prepare before the power goes off. So they call the office, then call again. The owner or an admin loses part of every day answering the same questions.
Test results and job sheets still live on paper
The crew writes test results in a book, sketches circuit changes on the back of a job sheet and photographs the board on a personal phone. The paper comes back crumpled or not at all, so certificates go out late and invoices wait until somebody types it all up.
Every call the owner answers about where a job is up to is time off the tools and off the business, repeated across the crew every day.
Data First Coaching
Electrician Business Apps, Built on Your Own Data.
Data First Coaching starts from your own job and finance data. On that data you build the systems, software and business apps your electrical business actually needs, shaped around how your jobs run and how your customers buy, and AI agents take the office work. Greg Allan works it through with you.
How most coaching works
Most coaching for electricians starts with the owner explaining the business.
- The first hours go on the owner describing the electrical business to a coach: the jobs, the crew, the customers, the money.
- The picture is out of date within weeks, because the numbers move every week.
- So the advice treats what the owner happened to notice, which is usually a symptom.
- Too often it comes from someone who has never run an electrical business, or any trade business at all.
- The owner pays for the explaining, then pays again when the advice does not fit.
Data First Coaching
Data first starts from your electrical business's numbers, not your memory.
- The Trade Business Intelligence Agent reads your job management and finance systems first.
- It sees your quotes, jobs, time on site and money as they are this week, the way electricians actually make and lose it.
- It finds where the problem actually starts, not where it shows up.
- You put in the system that fixes it at the root, and the data shows whether it worked.
Which of these is the root cause in your electrical business?
- The owner's phone is the job tracking system
- Customers cannot see when the electrician is coming
- Test results and job sheets still live on paper
Usually one of them is causing the others. Data first means your own numbers answer that before anybody guesses, so the fix goes where the problem starts.
| Rented software | Built on your own data | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Every trade at once | How your jobs actually run |
| Your data | Lives in somebody else's system | Yours, and it answers your questions |
| The cost | A subscription per seat, every month | What you build, kept as long as it earns its place |
| When it does not fit | Work around it, or wait for an update | Change it, because you built it |
| The office work | Still lands on you or an office wage | AI agents do it your way, people stay on customers |
| Where you start | A sales demo | Your own numbers, read by the Trade Business Intelligence Agent |
Fix the root cause, once
The data names the real problem, so the system you put in fixes it once instead of patching the same symptom every month.
Own your software
Build your own tools on your own data, shaped around how your jobs run and how your customers buy. Cancel the subscriptions and agencies that were never built for your business.
A more human business
Agents do the non-billable work: the quoting, invoicing, chasing and reporting. Your people spend the day on customers and the crew, so relationships get better and the team performs.
Business apps, built by you
Here Is What We Do About It.
You start in the free Tradies App, then Greg Allan's Data First Coaching takes it further. The Trade Business Intelligence Agent reads your job management and finance data, so the business apps you build sit on real jobs, not a template. With Greg and the group you build apps for your crew and customers: a job screen with the materials and test sheet, a booking update for the homeowner, a close-out that triggers the invoice.
The Tradies App
Free for trade business owners. No card, no trial clock.

How it works
Three Steps, Starting Tonight.
Start in the free Tradies App
Lessons, the members community and the tools, free for trade business owners. No card, no trial clock.
Build the screens your people need
Today's jobs for the crew, a quote to approve for the customer, the numbers for you, all on your own data and built around how your jobs run.
Put an agent behind each one
An agent fills the gaps a screen cannot: chasing the missing photo, sending the reminder, updating the job, so the app keeps itself current.
Why Greg
You speak to the owner who has already done it.
Greg built Response Electricians in Perth into a 30+ staff business with 1,950+ five-star reviews. A general manager runs it.
He has trained 9,000+ trade business owners across Australia and New Zealand.
He grew a coaching company to 35 staff, a CEO and 15 coaches, then cut it back so every owner deals with him directly.
Most coaching companies hand you to a salesperson, then to a coach who has never run a trade business. Here you get the owner.
What changes for you
The old way. The new way.
More customers meant more people doing the computer work, and more wages nobody invoices.
You stay with your customers and your team. The office stops landing on you.
The old way
More jobs. More paperwork. Less of the owner left.
Most trade businesses grow the same way.
More jobs means more quoting, invoicing, chasing and scheduling.
None of it gets paid for.
So the owner does it at night, after a full day on site.
Or hires an office person to do it.
The office grows. The wages grow. The margin does not.
And the owner is still the one everything waits on.
Where we take you
More work. More profit. More of you left.
The phone rings with the jobs you want, at the price you set.
You grow when you're ready, never faster than the business can carry.
Every job is priced to make money, so the busy months show up in the bank.
The best tradies in your area want to work for you, and they stay.
The chasing, the paperwork and the 9pm admin stop landing on you.
The business runs the day. You pick which parts of it you're in.
Bigger, without the headaches. Getting bigger stops meaning getting busier.
What changes
What Electrical Business Apps Actually Changes.
Three things electrical business owners walk away able to do.
Give every electrician a job screen with scope, materials and the test sheet
Let customers see their booking and approve a quote without phoning the office
Capture test results on site so certificates and invoices go out the same day
