Gary Hill, owner of Quick Fix York, had spent years building his trade business. Specialising in reactive maintenance, property repairs, and kitchen and bathroom installations, he worked tirelessly but always felt like he was hitting a ceiling.
Despite the long hours and dedication, his business was stuck at £60,000 a month. Growth felt slow, and like many tradespeople, he found himself doing everything—from being on the tools to handling admin and chasing payments.
That all changed when he joined Trade Mastermind.
Within just two months, Gary doubled his turnover. In the last 14 days alone, he secured £75,000 worth of work—something that seemed impossible just months earlier.
The Turning Point
The biggest shift came from learning how to market properly, price jobs correctly, and step away from the tools. Before Trade Mastermind, Gary was constantly busy but not working efficiently.
Now, he understands how to:
- Generate quality leads through proven marketing strategies
- Charge the right prices without undercutting himself
- Delegate work so the business runs without him being on-site every day
By hiring additional staff and stepping into the sales role, Gary finally had time to focus on growth, rather than being tied up in day-to-day jobs.
More Freedom, Less Stress
For years, Gary believed that working longer hours was the only way to get ahead. He would start at 4 AM and work until 8 PM, with no real downtime. Weekends, evenings, even personal time—everything revolved around the business.
But after implementing what he learned at Trade Mastermind, he took on new staff, brought in an office manager, and let go of low-value work. Now, for the first time in years, he’s taking weekends off, spending more time with family, and even enjoying the occasional Sunday lunch at the pub—something that was unheard of before.
The Results Speak for Themselves
- Turnover doubled in just two months
- £75,000 worth of work booked in 14 days
- Hired new staff and stepped away from the tools
- Stopped working late nights on admin and pricing
- Finally has free time without the business suffering
Gary admits he was sceptical at first. He had followed Joseph Valente online, seen the ads, and wondered if Trade Mastermind could really help. But within weeks, he realised he had been running his business the hard way for too long.
Now, he has a clear strategy, a growing business, and the freedom to enjoy life while still making more money than ever.
For any trade business owner stuck in long hours and low profits, his advice is simple: Make the call. Get in the room. It will change everything.
