Plasterer Business AppFree with an active ABN. Lessons, tools and a room full of owners who plaster for a living.
The Tradies App is free for plastering business owners with an active ABN in Australia and New Zealand. Lessons you can watch between sets, real business tools, and a members community where the bloke answering knows what a sheet costs.
The week this is about
Sound Like Your Plastering Business?
Business advice online is written for everyone else
You search for help pricing a ceiling and get a marketing agency, a cost guide aimed at homeowners, or an American drywall forum quoting board feet. None of it knows an Australian builder, an Australian rate or your season.
The trade Facebook groups are a race to the bottom
Ask what to charge per square metre and you get twenty answers, half of them from blokes undercutting you, and an argument about whether the frame or the plasterer is at fault. No structure, no truth, and no help by Monday.
You will not pay for something you cannot test
Money is tight when the builder is forty days late, and you have been burned by a subscription you used twice. Committing to anything before you have seen whether it fits a plastering business is not a risk you want to take.
Every month you keep guessing is a month of quotes priced on feel, and the cost of finding out you were wrong lands on a job you already finished.
The Tradies App
Here Is What We Do About It.
The Tradies App costs nothing with an active ABN. You get lessons from the same library the Academy teaches from, real business tools, and a community of owners running trade businesses across Australia and New Zealand. Download it, use it, and decide for yourself whether the rest is worth it.
How it works
Three Steps, Starting Tonight.
Sign up with your ABN
Free for verified ABN holders in Australia and New Zealand. Two minutes, and you are in.
Get the free tier, which is a real one
The Crew, the daily Q&A, the starter courses and a chat with Greg. Not a preview with the useful parts locked.
Go deeper when it is worth it
The full Learning Hub, the live programmes and Greg sit behind it when you want them. Nothing switches off if you never take them.
Why you get me
I built the coaching company everyone else runs. Then I took it apart.
Most coaching companies work the same way. You enquire, you get a salesperson. You sign up, you get a coach who has never run a trade business.
I know, because I built one. I grew the Academy to 35 staff, a CEO and 15 coaches. It ran without me.
And I hated it. The bigger it got, the further I was from the owners I started it for.
What gets me up in the morning is getting under the hood of a trade business and helping the owner hit their goals in the least time possible.
So I restructured the whole thing.
When you enquire, you speak to me. If you are accepted into the Academy, you work with me. Directly.
And with agentic AI, the results come sooner than most owners can imagine.
Places are limited. I only take on owners who are committed and ready to do the work.
Who you will be talking to
I built Response Electricians in Perth into a 30+ staff business with more than 1,950+ five-star reviews.
A general manager runs it day to day. I live in Byron Bay.
I have trained 9,000+ trade business owners across Australia and New Zealand.
What AI actually changes
The old way. The new way.
More customers meant more people doing your computer work, and you paying for all of it.
You stay with your customers and your team. Agents run the office your way.
The old way
Grow, then hire people to do the computer work.
Every new customer brought more quoting, invoicing, chasing, scheduling and reporting.
So you hired people to do it. Office staff, bookkeepers, admin.
None of it is billable, and every hire costs wages, sick leave and another person to manage.
Profit and time only grew as fast as you could add people.
The new way
Keep the human work. Give everything else to agents.
Your people do what only people can do: looking after customers and leading the team.
Everything else goes to agents that do it your way, instantly, any time it is needed.
No sick leave. No capacity problems. They scale as far as the business does.
So the only people you add are the ones facing your customers and your team.
A human-centred business that runs on systems you build in minutes. Nobody still running the old way can compete with it.
