When Lee joined Trade Mastermind in December, his business was in a rough patch. Things had slowed down, and like many hands-on tradesmen, he found himself at a bit of a crossroads. Fast forward just six weeks, and he had already landed £77,000 worth of work—nearly three-quarters of his entire turnover from the year before.
It was a dramatic shift, but not one that came from guesswork. Lee had always found the trade side of his work easy. Picking up practical skills came naturally. But like so many skilled professionals in the trades, the business side had always been the harder part. Running a company, understanding cash flow, pricing properly, managing sales—that was unfamiliar ground.
That’s where Trade Mastermind stepped in. Lee says that the biggest impact has been on his confidence. Working with mentors who’ve actually been in the trade makes all the difference. The lessons aren’t abstract—they’re rooted in real-world experience. That relatability and credibility have been crucial. “They know how it works,” Lee explains. “They’re highly relatable, highly motivational—and yeah, I just think it works.”
Only three months into the programme, Lee’s entire outlook has shifted. He approaches problems differently. His mindset has changed. He’s now acting like a business owner, not just a tradesman, and that change is already paying dividends.
He admits it might sound cliché to say it’s changed everything—but that’s exactly how it feels. The transformation in such a short time has been undeniable. From quiet months to major wins, Lee is now building momentum with a structure and strategy behind him.
Asked if he’d recommend Trade Mastermind, Lee doesn’t hesitate: “So far, so good.” With a surge of new work, a renewed sense of confidence, and a clear direction for the future, Lee’s story is another powerful example of what’s possible when you stop trying to do it all on your own—and start learning from those who’ve already walked the path.
