When I first started my damp proofing business, I honestly felt lost. I was working hard but getting nowhere. Some months I didn’t even get a single phone call, and it was disheartening. I assume like many tradesmen starting out, I was relying on trial and error, and it felt like I was sinking.By chance, I came across Ash on social media. His posts stood out because they were genuine, straight talking and full of insight that matched exactly what I’d been thinking but couldn’t put into action. I booked an audit call, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my business.On that call, Ash was honest and constructive. He broke down what I was doing right and wrong in a way that actually made sense. It wasn’t about pushing a sales pitch. It was about showing me there was a clear path forward if I was willing to take it. That honesty was refreshing, and it gave me the confidence to put my trust in Tradegrow.From the moment I signed up, both Ash and Nat were fully involved. They redesigned my website so it now feels welcoming, professional and easy for customers to use. They gave me the confidence to use proper images of myself and my work, which has made my business feel more approachable and trustworthy.But their support went far beyond just building a website. They helped me improve my Google Business Profile, guided me on SEO and rankings, put together a clear marketing strategy, and showed me how to start building consistent reviews. Step by step, they gave me both the tools and the confidence to take control of my business.The results have been night and day. I’ve gone from barely one call a month to now receiving on average 2–3 calls most weeks, without fail. That’s new surveys, new enquiries and actual work coming in. My business finally has momentum, and I’m no longer just surviving. I’m starting to grow!Looking back, I know for certain I wouldn’t be here without Ash and Nat. They are knowledgeable, professional and genuinely passionate about helping tradesmen succeed. If you’re a tradesman feeling stuck or unsure where to turn, take this as your sign. With Tradegrow, things CAN change, and if it worked for me, it can work for you too.
