run your business, don't let it run you.

Running a small business shouldn’t suck. But for some reason, it does.

I mean really sucks.

Monday you’re chasing down overdue payments: Tuesday, an endless sea of invoices. Not to mention working Saturday to get on top of all the projects on the go. Finally, when year end comes, your accountant tells you you’re not profitable. You made less than working in an entry-level position in your trade. And you should just go get a job.

No wonder 45% of small businesses fail in the first 5 years.

That’s a big problem.

Because small businesses make up 70% of the workforce. It shouldn’t suck for the people creating those jobs. The people solving the real problems. Those who took the risk to start their own business. 

But, good news. The problem isn’t you. Or your business. The problem is they didn’t teach you how to run a business in trade school. They never taught you how to run a profitable business. Or how to effectively manage multiple projects. Or why it's so important to keep your books clean. And that sucks.

And while it sucks, it’s okay.

The truth is, you shouldn’t really need to worry about all that boring shit. All you should do is focus on what you're good at. What makes you the master of your trade. Why your customers pick you over the next guy — find someone else to focus on the boring shit. Someone to help you get on top of the massive pile of admin work that disguises itself as a business. Someone to solve the challenges that make you toss and turn. The challenges that aren’t going away no matter how long you ignore them. 

Because honestly. You deserve it.

You've worked your ass off to get where you are. And it wasn't easy. And, be honest. It’s not getting any easier. Healthy businesses need support to grow.  It won’t get easier until you find someone to support you on the back end. Someone who acts as a partner and business consultant.

That's what TradeBrain does. 

The boring shit. Following up with annoying customers, organizing receipts, recruiting, chasing down new business, building systems and processes that allow your business to grow sustainably. We’ve got it. It's what we’re good at. 

Helping small businesses grow 25% YOY. Helping the owner gradually reduce hours. Helping small businesses become more profitable.
