You’ve already built a great business ... but if it can’t run smoothly without you, it’s not truly scalable.
You don’t need more work.
You need the right systems running your business.

Most trade businesses don’t have a workload problem.
They have a systems problem.
Jobs run… but margins slip.
The team stays busy… but everything still lands on the owner.
The business grows… but it still relies on you.
The turning point for Andy & Ange was systems.
You’ll walk away with 27 real systems from Andy & Angela's trade business, mapped as simple flowcharts so you can see exactly how the process should run.
Most trade businesses have zero documented systems.
You’ll leave with 27.

SUCCESS STORIES
rEAL STORIES FROM TRADIES WHO'VE ALREADY TRANSFORMED THEIR BUSINESS AFTER STRESS FREE TRADIE...
"It was perfect timing for us. Before going, we were feeling lost and had no real direction. This event gave us clarity and a group of mates to talk to. We haven't looked back since."
- Dan & Claudia Wood
"We've doubled and even tripled our business since attending. The biggest shift was finally knowing which numbers to watch and what to focus on day-to-day. Honestly wish we'd done this sooner."
- Kieren O'Brien
"No one teaches you how to run a business at TAFE. Spending the day with Andy and Ange gave us direction, clarity and real answers. If you're stuck or second-guessing yourself, just go."
- James & Courtney Hill
If we haven’t met yet...
We’re Andy & Angela Smith.
We’re Andy & Angela Smith.
For over 21 years, we ran Dr. DRiP Plumbing, growing from a one-man band into a multi-million-dollar trade business with:
17 tradies
8 vehicles
Millions in revenue
And most importantly... a business that ran without us.
It didn’t start that way.
We built it the hard way... long hours, constant pressure, and no systems. But through trial, error and experience, we figured out how to step back, make more profit, and actually enjoy life again.
That’s why we created Lifestyle Tradie - Australia’s first trade-specific coaching program designed for established business owners ready to scale, systemise and regain control.
Since then, we’ve helped over 10,000 tradies across Australia and New Zealand to:
Systemise their operations so the business runs without them
Lift profit and fix cash flow
Build stronger teams and retain top talent
Finally take time off without worrying what’s happening on site
We’re not your typical coaches. We’ve built it, lived it, and scaled it.
If you’re ready to move from busy to profitable, from hands-on to hands-free - you’re in the right place.
At Stress Free Tradie, we’ll show you the exact steps we used to turn a good business into a great one, one that gives you time, control and money back in your pocket.
TURN MY TRADE BUSINESS INTO A PROFIT-MAKING, TIME-GIVING MACHINE.

WHO IS THIS EVENT NOT FOR?
WHO IS THIS EVENT
NOT FOR?
This isn’t a motivational talk or a “get rich quick” seminar.
This event is NOT for you if:
You’re happy staying flat-out busy without improving your profit or freedom.
You’re not ready to delegate, systemise, or take a hard look at your numbers.
You prefer doing things the same old way, even if it means staying stuck.
You think working harder is the only way to grow.
You’re after inspiration, not implementation.
But if you’re ready to increase profit, build a business that runs without you, and take control of your time, this event is for you.
Seats are FREE but limited. Don’t miss out.

How will Lifestyle Tradie help me?
It’s the best business people who are successful, not the best tradies. And I bet you didn’t learn much about business principles at T.A.F.E! The thing is, you have a choice: continue to work things out yourself through expensive trial and error, or, fast-track your freedom with tried-and-tested ‘trade specific’ strategies you can copy, modify and apply to your own trade business for immediate and long-lasting results.
If you’ve ever thought there must be a tradie business coach who provides a personalised strategy based on deep business analysis, and a simple roadmap to follow that is systematic about building the right foundations for success, AND access to a top-notch community of leaders, then look no further. Lifestyle Tradie is the answer. We help put more profit in your pocket and ultimately help you create the lifestyle and freedom you’ve always wanted.
