£900k sales in one monthAfter £800k turnover in the previous yearBuilt for established operators
You have built a good business. Now it needs to become a better one.
The work is coming in, but the margins do not match the effort. Important decisions still wait for you, and too much of the company lives in your head.
From the outside, it looks successful. Inside, you are still checking every quote, solving every site problem and carrying the pressure home. A busier diary has created more responsibility, but not the freedom you expected when you started the business.
- You cannot switch off because the team still needs your answer
- Turnover is growing faster than cash and profit
- You know what needs fixing, but urgent work keeps winning
- Another year like this will make the business bigger, not better
This is for you if...
- You run a building or trade company turning over roughly £750k to £5 million
- You have an office team of 2 to 10 people, plus trade support
- You want more reliable margins from the work already coming in
- Too many systems and decisions still depend on you
- You are ready to replace daily firefighting with structured growth
- You will spend 1 to 1.5 hours a week working on the business
A business operating system
Five pillars. One plan.
Every goal, review and training maps to the DEVELOP method, so you know what to fix, what to measure and what comes next.
- 01
Plan
A 12-month plan and the numbers that prove you are on it.
- 02
Attract
Lead flow you control, instead of relying on one architect's goodwill.
- 03
Convert
Pricing and follow-up that win work at proper margins.
- 04
Deliver
Job costing and site systems that protect the margin you quoted.
- 05
Scale
The right people in the right seats, so growth stops needing you.

Concise answers based on how the programme currently works and the member evidence shown on this page.
What is the Develop Mastermind?
It is a minimum 12-month coaching programme for established construction business owners. It combines a bespoke business plan, expert coaching, accountability, a private builder community, training and practical business tools. See the programme.

See everything included.
How does the Develop Mastermind work?
Onboarding and a five-pillar review identify the main constraints. A dedicated planning session turns those findings into a 12-month plan, followed by weekly priorities, progress reviews and support across Plan, Attract, Convert, Deliver and Scale. See the five pillars and the first 90 days.
How much does the Develop Mastermind cost?
Develop Coaching programmes range from £2,000 to £18,000 annually, depending on the support your business needs. On the Freedom Roadmap Session, we demonstrate the value first, then explain the recommended programme and exact investment. See how we assess fit.
What results have Develop Mastermind members reported?
The named member videos on this page describe changes in structure, systems, lead generation, team development, financial visibility and owner time. Watch their accounts and read the transcript summaries. Individual results vary. Members have reported doubling turnover and improving profit retention.

Why a 12-month commitment?
Building a business takes time. A 12-month minimum gives your bespoke plan room to work through all five pillars: Plan, Attract, Convert, Deliver and Scale. Monthly or annual payment is available, but the commitment stays at 12 months so changes have time to bed in rather than being abandoned early.
Is business coaching worth it for builders?
It depends on your bottleneck and how much you implement. Coaching suits owners who want a personalised plan, accountability and a community of peers rather than more information alone. Judge it against your own baseline, not someone else's results. Our client wins show what members have done with the support.
How much does the Develop Mastermind cost?
Develop Coaching programmes range from £2,000 to £18,000 annually, depending on the support your business needs. On the Freedom Roadmap Session, we demonstrate the value first, then recommend the right programme and explain the exact investment.
Could I use free resources and do this myself?
Yes. If you are self-directed, our free trainings and book are a sensible starting point. Paid support adds a bespoke plan, coaching, accountability and community. Neither route guarantees results, because outcomes depend on how consistently you apply what you learn to your own business.
How is coaching different from consulting?
The roles can overlap, and the scope is agreed before we start. Consulting tends to mean expert advice and answers. Coaching tends to mean questions, challenge and accountability while you decide and act. In the mastermind, expect advanced training plus coaching, with you responsible for decisions and implementation.
How much implementation time should I allow?
This is discussed before you join, because the plan only works if you can act on it. Ask about both coaching time and the work to complete between sessions. Be honest about your week: delivery, quoting, admin and family all compete for time. Agree a realistic commitment before deciding whether the programme fits.
Does everyone follow the same curriculum?
No. The five pillars give the structure, but your 12-month plan is bespoke to your business and bottleneck. Advanced training, coaching, accountability and community sit around that plan. If you want to talk through your situation, schedule a call or read more on business coaching for construction.
