The week this is about

Sound Like Your Roofing Business?

Your business runs on a phone full of photos

Roof photos, measurements scrawled on a beam, a quote in your notes app and a supplier order in a text message. When a customer rings about a job from March, you scroll for ten minutes and hope you took a picture of it.

You go looking for answers in a Facebook group

A roofing group at eleven at night, forty comments, half of them from another country with different licensing and different awards. Somebody sells you an opinion, somebody argues about ridge caps, and you still have no idea what to do.

Nobody around you owns a business like yours

Your subbies want work, not talk. Your merchant rep wants the order. The other roofers in town are competitors. There is nowhere to ask a simple question about pricing a restoration and get an honest answer from someone who has done it.

Another year of running a roofing business on memory, group chats and guesswork, when the tool that fixes it costs nothing to try.

The Tradies App

Here Is What We Do About It.

How it works

Three Steps, Starting Tonight.

Step 1

Sign up with your ABN

Free for verified ABN holders in Australia and New Zealand. Two minutes, and you are in.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

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 Roofing Business App Actually Changes.

Three things roofing business owners walk away able to do.

The Tradies App is free with an active ABN, no card and no obligation

Ask a real question about pricing a re-roof and get answers from owners who have done it

Questions

Roofer Business App, Answered.

Is the Tradies App actually free, or free for a trial period?
Free, with an active ABN, in Australia and New Zealand. You get lessons, the members community and business tools at no cost. The Learning Hub is the paid step up at $199 a month if you want the full lesson library, but nothing forces you there and there is no obligation.
Will there be other roofers in there or is it all sparkies?
Every trade is in there, and that turns out to be the point. A plumber has already solved the scheduling problem you are stuck on. You will also find roofers dealing with the same insurance builders, the same weather weeks and the same argument about what a restoration should be worth.
I am in New Zealand. Does the app work for me?
Yes. The app is free with an active ABN in Australia and New Zealand. The business content travels: pricing, systems, hiring and marketing work the same either side of the Tasman. The compliance differs, since roofing in New Zealand runs through the Licensed Building Practitioner scheme under MBIE rather than state licensing.
