Most tradesmen don’t fail because they’re bad at the trade.
They fail because they keep doing the same shit… and expecting different results.

In this episode of the Off The Tools Podcast, Wayne Bettess and Andy Jones break down 9 practical, proven things that will radically improve both your business AND your life — but only if you actually take action.

This isn’t theory.
Every single point has been tested, implemented, and lived by lads inside Off The Tools. 🛠️

Inside this episode, we cover:

🔹 Why raising your standards must come before raising your prices
🔹 Picking a lane based on your strengths — not ego
🔹 How recurring revenue gives you breathing room (and sleep)
🔹 Why systems beat hustle every single time
🔹 Getting paid upfront and protecting yourself with paper trails 📄
🔹 Why hiring admin earlier than feels “comfortable” is a power move
🔹 Marketing consistently — even when you’re flat out 📈
🔹 Thinking lifetime value, not one-off jobs
🔹 And why upgrading the man is just as important as upgrading the business 💪🧠

If you’re grafting but not getting ahead…
If you want more time, freedom, profit, and control…
