TradesLandscapersTraining
Landscaper Business TrainingTrade school taught you drainage and levels. Nobody taught you gross margin on a design and construct build.
Landscaping business training for owners, not apprentices. How to price a sloping block, read a job's real margin, hold a maintenance round profitably, and stay on the right side of licensing and the award. Self paced lessons plus live sessions, built for Australian and New Zealand landscaping businesses.
The week this is about
Sound Like Your Landscaping Business?
You can build it, nobody taught you to run it
Your trade training covered turf, paving, drainage and plant selection. It never covered a profit and loss, a charge-out rate, or what to do when a big build lands under water and you only find out at the end.
Every lesson costs you a job to learn
You worked out deposits after a client vanished mid build. You worked out the licence threshold after someone mentioned it at the supplier. You are paying full price, in real jobs, for information that already exists in writing.
There is no time to learn in the spring rush
October has you on three sites, a turf delivery running late and quotes stacked up for the weekend. Any training that needs a clear diary never happens, because a landscaping diary is never clear when the weather is good.
You will keep learning the business of landscaping the slowest and dearest way there is, one lost job at a time, while your build quality carries the whole business.
Training
Here Is What We Do About It.
The Learning Hub gives you the full lesson library inside the Tradies App at $199 a month, so you learn in the ute at smoko or on the couch after the kids are down. Business Foundations adds weekly live sessions hosted by Greg Allan, where you bring your own numbers and work on them.
How it works
Three Steps, Starting Tonight.
Start tonight, for nothing
Join the Tradies App with an active ABN and the starter courses open straight away. No card, no trial clock counting down while you are still on site.
Work the module that matches the problem
You do not start at lesson one and grind through. You start at the thing that is costing you money this month, and the library is organised so you can find it.
Take it live
Business Foundations runs weekly with Greg Allan, so the module you watched on Tuesday gets pressure tested against your actual numbers on Thursday.
What changes
What Landscaping Business Training Actually Changes.
Three things landscaping business owners walk away able to do.
Read a landscaping job's real margin before you sign the quote, not after handover.
Build a charge-out rate that carries award labour, machine hire and green waste fees.
Know which structural landscaping work needs a licence in your state before you price it.
