Plumber Business TrainingYou learned to install, not to run a business. Nobody taught you the office half of plumbing.

Structured business training for plumbing business owners who are good on the tools and self-taught everywhere else. Pricing, cash flow, systems, hiring and marketing, built for a business that runs on callouts, compliance certificates and progress claims.

The week this is about

Sound Like Your Plumbing Business?

Your apprenticeship taught fixtures, not finances

Four years of trade school covered AS/NZS 3500, backflow, gas and drainage. Not one hour covered a profit and loss, a charge-out rate or what to do when a builder holds your retention. You have been guessing at the business half ever since.

Every lesson has cost you a real job

You learned about deposits by wearing a bad debt. You learned about scope by eating a variation on a bathroom renovation. Learning by scar tissue works, but it is the most expensive training there is, and it takes years per lesson.

There is no time left to learn anything

Between callouts, rough-ins, fit-offs and the merchant run, the only window is after nine at night. Any training that needs you in a classroom on a Tuesday is training you will never finish, no matter how much you need it.

Learn it by trial and error and every mistake gets paid for out of a real job, a real customer and a real year of your life.

Here Is What We Do About It.

The Learning Hub gives you the full lesson library inside the Tradies App for $199 a month, watchable at nine at night in the ute or on the couch. Business Foundations puts you in weekly live sessions hosted by Greg Allan, so you can ask about your own jobs, your own numbers and your own crew.

How it works

Three Steps, Starting Tonight.

Step 1

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.

Step 2

Work the module that matches the problem

You do not start at lesson one and work through the lot. You start at the thing that is costing you money this month, and the library is organised so you can find it.

Step 3

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.

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.

Illustration: a trade business owner standing over three office staff buried in paperwork at night.
The old way

More customers meant more people doing your computer work, and you paying for all of it.

Illustration: a tradesman shaking hands with a homeowner in her driveway, his phone showing jobs quoted and invoiced.
The new way

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.

What changes

What Plumbing Business Training Actually Changes.

Three things plumbing business owners walk away able to do.

Read your own profit and loss and say which job types actually made money

Build a charge-out rate from your real labour cost, overheads and margin

Run a week of jobs from a written plan instead of the phone deciding for you

Questions

Plumber Business Training, Answered.

I finished my apprenticeship years ago. Is this more trade training?
No. This is the business half: pricing, cash flow, quoting, systems, hiring and marketing for a plumbing business. Your technical training already covers AS/NZS 3500 and your licence conditions. The Academy covers everything your trade school never touched, which is the part that decides whether the business makes money.
When would I actually do the training with a full diary?
The Learning Hub is self paced inside the Tradies App, so most owners do it before bed or while waiting on a supplier. Business Foundations runs live each week and is recorded, so a Tuesday emergency callout does not cost you the session. You catch it back that night.
Can my leading hand or office manager use it too?
Yes, and the businesses that get the most out of it do exactly that. Put your leading hand through the pricing and job management lessons and your office person through the invoicing and follow-up material. The point is that the knowledge stops living only in your head, which is what frees you up.
