Trade Business
Start-Up Guides
Starting a trade business can be challenging, particularly for those with excellent technical skills but limited business experience. Our business start-up guides provide clear, practical advice for individuals looking to launch and grow successful service-based businesses.
Covering topics such as business planning, pricing, marketing, customer service, financial management and business growth, these guides are written in plain English and based on real industry experience. Whether you are starting a painting and decorating business, handyman service, cleaning company, gardening business or other trade venture, our guides provide a structured roadmap to success.
Trade Profit App
The Trade Profit App has been developed to help self-employed tradespeople and small contractors understand their true costs, improve pricing accuracy and increase profitability.
Many businesses unknowingly undercharge for their work due to hidden overheads and inaccurate labour calculations. The Trade Profit App helps users calculate operating costs, determine realistic charge-out rates, forecast income and measure the profitability of completed jobs.
Designed specifically for the trade sector, the app provides practical financial insights that can help businesses make better decisions and improve long-term profitability.
