£30k a month in revenue, 5 employees and ambitions to reach £500k a year… but working 20-hour days, juggling night shifts is making growth harder than ever.

In this episode, I sit down with Lucy Davies, co-founder of Pro Sim Golf, an indoor golf simulator and training facility. In under two years, their best month has hit £17K. Their worst? £2K. They're profitable for six months of the year, but a tough first summer meant borrowing more money just to get through it. We talk about how to make a seasonal business work all year round, getting the word out when people don't know you exist, how four founders with very different ideas can actually make decisions, and the big one: how long you keep going before deciding a business isn't viable and you've just created an extra job. If you run a seasonal business or you're in the early, uncertain years, this one's for you.

Most trade businesses have the same ceiling, and it's the owner. You start on the tools, you get good, the work comes in… and suddenly everything still runs through you.In this episode, I sit down with Oliver Longstaff, founder of The Gentleman Home Services. He's been trading for 7–8 years, has a team of 5, and turns over £27K a month. But by his own admission, he's the bottleneck. His goal is simple: to go on holiday and actually be present with his family.We talk about getting off the tools and into the business, building a team you can trust with your customers, creating recurring income, and where I'd put £1,000 to win more customers.If you're a tradesperson who's outgrown doing everything yourself, this one's for you.The manager that makes you money, workbook & course:https://james-sinclair-shop.fourthwall.com/en-gbp/products/managerFind out more from Oliver here: https://www.theghs.co.uk/ Sign up to my weekly newsletter 'The James Sinclair Letter' here: https://www.jamessinclair.net/the-letter Get your tickets to our next event here ► https://www.jamessinclair.net/events
