Roofer Business TrainingYou learned to lay a roof from a bloke on a job. Nobody ever taught you to run the business.
Roofing training in Australia teaches you to detail a valley and fall a box gutter. It does not teach you to price a restoration, read a P&L or hire a second crew. This page is about the training that covers everything after the trade.
The week this is about
Sound Like Your Roofing Business?
Your ticket covers heights, not overheads
You hold the working at heights ticket, the licence and twenty years on tin. Nothing in any of that taught you what a job should cost, when to put a price up, or how to read the numbers your accountant sends in October.
You learn business by losing money on jobs
Every lesson so far arrived as a loss: the tile job that ran three weeks, the subbie who never invoiced, the two-storey re-roof you priced at single-storey money. It works, slowly, and each lesson costs you thousands.
There is no time for a course in storm season
You are on a roof by six thirty and quoting at nine at night. A weeknight classroom or a two-day workshop in the middle of a hail run is not something you can physically do, so you keep putting it off.
Twenty years of experience laying roofs and five years of experience running a business, repeated four times over, because nothing you learned ever got written down.
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, watched at five in the morning or in the ute at smoko. Business Foundations puts you in weekly live sessions hosted by Greg Allan, working on your roofing business with owners doing the same thing.
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 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.
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.
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.
What changes

Three things roofing business owners walk away able to do.
