The week this is about

Sound Like Your Painting Business?

Dead time you never get paid for

Two hours between coats, a wet day that killed the exterior, sitting in the van waiting on the tint. That time is unbilled either way. Right now it goes on scrolling, when it could go on the part of the business you never get to.

Nowhere to ask another painting owner

The Facebook groups are half tradies and half people selling to tradies. Ask what to charge for a two storey exterior and you get abuse, a lowball and someone's affiliate link. You want an answer from an owner who actually did the job.

You have been burned on business courses before

Someone sold you a programme that turned out to be generic small business content with a photo of a ute on the front page. Now every offer looks like that one, and you are not paying to find out again.

Another year of learning it the hard way, when the thing that would have shortened it was sitting free on your phone the whole time.

Questions

Painter Business App, Answered.

Is the Tradies App actually free, or free until it asks for a card?
Free. If you have an active ABN in Australia or New Zealand you get the app, the lessons and the members community at no cost. There are paid programmes if you want more, including the Learning Hub at $199 a month, but the app itself is not a trial and does not expire.
Is there anything in it for a painter, or is it all generic tradie stuff?
The community is full of trade owners including painters, so the questions are about square metre rates, builder progress claims, apprentice wages and prep that blew out. The lessons apply across trades because quoting and hiring do, and the answers you get in the community come from people running the same kind of business.
I am not much for apps. How long before it is useful?
About ten minutes. Download it, put your ABN in, and start with a lesson on quoting or pricing. Most painting owners get something usable out of the first sitting, usually a line they change in the next quote they send. TSA holds a 4.9 App Store rating from tradies doing exactly that.
