A fast-paced and technology-driven world has its influence on different types of trades and we normally see this in businesses heavily relying on the power of software and systems.

However, it’s a common sight for businesses to not use these systems correctly. Rather than being able to leverage it, the software becomes an additional cost with no massive impact on productivity and profitability.

In this episode of Profit First For Tradies, Clinton Cowin and Scott Simpson discuss the critical role of proper software and systems setup in business and why this is TradiePad’s foundation for success.

This is a 2-part series where Clinton and Scott share a glimpse of how they guide clients into the proper implementation of systems so they can focus on business areas that need more attention.

They are experts in helping businesses that are not using the systems correctly. Although there are a myriad of reasons for why this happens, the usual culprit is not having the right education on how to use the tools accurately or it simply isn’t the best system for the business.

In this episode of the Profit First for Tradies, you’ll learn the following:

  • Clinton’s journey into the TradiePad (01:20)

  • How Scott joined TradiePad and what he does in the business (04:42)

  • Understanding the importance of setting up software and job management systems correctly (09:10)

  • The greater impact of having systems in place (13:08) 

  • How job management systems increase business profitability (17:40)

Investing in the correct systems and learning how to use them properly brings a substantial difference in how business owners run their trade. It does wonders for team productivity, understanding costs and profit, and overall business success.
