At present, we’re at an £18,000 average order value. Previously, we never looked at any of our figures. We used to run things, and then at the end of the month, we’d wonder why we hadn’t made any money.
It’s been brilliant to follow everything, to know where we’ve been going wrong and correcting it. It’s massive, and then you end up wanting to put more in because you know you’re going to get more back.
I used to work on the tools, thinking that was the only way to earn money for the company, but now I realise that’s not the best.
Now I’ve got my time back to spend with my family, and we’re even earning more money.
Just 10 months ago, my electrical business was in a rut. We were making around £30K a month, working all hours, but never really breaking through to the next level. I knew we had potential, but I didn’t know how to scale properly, price jobs profitably, or generate consistent leads.
That’s when I joined Trade Mastermind—and everything changed.
Fast forward to today, and we’re now turning over a massive £140K every month! That’s more than 4X our old revenue—and we’ve done it without working longer hours or taking on endless small jobs.
The Game-Changer? Focusing on High-Value Jobs
One of the biggest lessons from Trade Mastermind was learning to niche down. We stopped doing general electrical work and EV chargers and went all-in on solar. That one shift transformed our entire business model.
Now, instead of juggling small, low-profit jobs, we’re securing big-ticket solar installs that bring in consistent, high-value revenue. Trade Mastermind showed us how to position ourselves as experts, attract the right customers, and charge premium prices.
The Results? Mind-Blowing.
£140K in monthly revenue—a 4X increase in less than a year
A structured, scalable business model that doesn’t rely on me doing everything
A steady flow of leads without constantly chasing work
Clear business systems so I know my numbers, costs, and profit margins
Honestly, I can’t believe we used to settle for £30K a month when there was so much more potential. Trade Mastermind gave us the blueprint to scale, systemize, and dominate our industry.
Would I Recommend Trade Mastermind? 1000% YES.
If you’re an electrician stuck at the same income level, working too hard for too little, and wondering how to break into higher-value work like solar, don’t waste another year trying to figure it out alone.
Trade Mastermind fast-tracked our success, and it can do the same for you.
Jesse Burgess joined Trade Mastermind in November 2018 after a period of frustration and uncertainty. Unhappy at work and unsure what to do next, he started listening to podcasts—and one day heard a story that resonated. Someone had turned things around after attending a Discovery Day. That was all the motivation Jesse needed. He booked in, showed up, and says he “learned loads just from that one day.”
At the time, Jesse was working with property developers and builders, and cash flow was a constant battle. “I was owed £100,000 at one point,” he recalls. “I was always chasing money, lying to my wife, and couldn’t afford to pay ourselves.” It was draining, financially and emotionally.
Since joining Trade Mastermind, everything has taken a complete U-turn. Jesse realised he hadn’t truly understood his challenges—he didn’t know his numbers, how to price jobs properly, or how to market his business. That changed fast. He began building both his personal and company brand, and quickly saw how much of a difference it could make.
He’s now operating within a scalable model, having transitioned into the renewables space. Cash flow is healthy, leads are consistent, and there’s a clear roadmap for the future. “We can now predict our future and have constant work coming in. Life is just so much better.”
Jesse says the biggest shift has been personal development and self-belief. Understanding his finances and pricing with purpose have been game-changers. Looking ahead, he’s aiming for a £3 million turnover within 12 months, with a full office team, six engineers on the books, and dedicated sales staff.
For Jesse, Trade Mastermind wasn’t just business training—it was a fresh start. “It’s helped with everything—from cash flow to my personal life. I didn’t know how much I needed it until I did it.”
