Series: The Top 3 Mistakes Growing Trade Businesses Make Cohost: Danny Kerr from BT Academy
When it comes to building a successful business, there are few things more important than attracting talent into your organisation. Great staff can make, or break a company, which is why Danny has chosen this topic as part one of this EPIC three-part series.
Based out of British Colombia, Canada, BT Academy exists to teach businesses how to create a sustainable business structure, using the principles of a franchise model.
Franchises depend heavily on systems and processes, which serves as the fundamental lynch-pin in a franchises ability to operate out of multiple locations while delivering a consistent product/service.
My co-host in this series, Danny Kerr, has a background in franchising. A few years ago, he decided it would be a good idea to educate trade business owners how they can create similar frameworks in their own businesses.
As a result, BT Academy was born and they now help hundreds of organisations, right across Canada and the United States take their businesses to a level that is systemised, profitable and independent of any one person (in most cases the business owner).
In this series, we'll be talking about what Danny considers the Top 3 mistakes that trade business owners make, from his experience with dealing with hundreds of organisations. Those areas are:
- Attracting the right talent
- Lack of focus on Gross Profit Margin
- The wrong prioritisation of time
