Dougie’s journey into the trades began at just 15 years old. Starting as an apprentice, he quickly honed his skills and became highly proficient in his trade. But, like many tradespeople, Dougie found that being great at hands-on work didn’t necessarily mean he knew how to run a business.
For years, his business struggled to take off. While he was good at the technical side of things, managing the finances, scaling operations and planning for growth seemed like an insurmountable challenge. He found himself stuck, feeling like his dream of running a successful business was slipping away.
It wasn’t until he discovered Trade Mastermind that everything began to change. “Before I started, my life was an absolute nightmare,” Dougie admits. But after joining the programme, he began implementing the strategies and guidance he received and the difference was immediate.
Within just a few months, Dougie saw his revenue skyrocket from £20,000 a month to a projected £100,000. “I can’t complain, can I?” he says, with a smile. And the best part? He’s not stopping there. Dougie plans to hire five new staff members next month, and he’s already eyeing £150,000 a month in revenue. The transformation in his business has been nothing short of remarkable.
“I wanted to learn how to run my business properly, and that’s exactly what I got at Trade Mastermind,” Dougie explains. He found that the programme covered everything from A to Z, teaching him not just how to work harder, but smarter. It wasn’t just about learning the technical skills, he learned how to scale his business, manage his finances, and recruit the right people.
Dougie’s advice for anyone in the trades, whether you’re just starting out or have been in the business for years, is simple: “I’d recommend Trade Mastermind to anyone. You’ll get taught everything you need to know, and it works.”
Today, Dougie is not only running a successful business—he’s building a team, growing rapidly, and achieving milestones he once thought were out of reach. For any tradesperson who feels stuck or overwhelmed, Dougie’s story is proof that with the right mentorship, everything can change.
