"We were lost on our numbers, weekends weren't weekends, working Saturday, Sunday, just crazy hours. I was probably looking for an early heart attack, to be honest, just in terms of those crazy stress levels that we were facing every day." Kate & Kieran Moriarty - KPM Plumbing

In 2014 Kate and Kieran started with $100, then they slogged it out for the next six years, in the 'tradie mindset' of being busy saying yes to everyone. Working long hours, no holidays, highly stressed, with limited financial rewards, all of which placed pressure on Kate and Kieran's relationship.

Fast track to 2020 when Kate & Kieran knew they needed to make drastic changes and reached out for support, joining our 'Power Up Coaching Program'. Implementing our processes, getting pushed out of their comfort zone, building team culture, and a focus on 'A-Class' clients. The result, a thriving $3 million business, a thriving family life, and the purchase of their dream property, all of which they never previously thought possible.

Key takeaways from this episode that will transform your business to 'Power Up' to the next level:

  1. If it was easy everyone would do it - to succeed you have to be prepared to get uncomfortable to make positive change.
  2. Why it is important to remember you are not that important - get out of the way.
  3. Having clear processes sets you free.
  4. Less is more - quality over quantity.
  5. Preparation is the key to delivering consistently great results..
  6. How defining your values and desired behaviours removes emotion and stress from potentially difficult situations.
  7. Making your team feel valued increases ownership and accountability.
