My take on the downturn

Yes these figures are national and there will be pockets of growth still in lots of areas but generally this will means there will be less work but with the same amount of tradies looking for it. This competition will drive prices south so profits will reduce. You’ll need a strategy to secure the cream of the market who are paying the best prices.

If you work for a large construction firm, then the backlog of works may mean you are insulated for up to 24 months but then you may face a redundancy. You will actually be at a disadvantage then  because you will enter a completely tradie saturated market with your competitors having a year or two head start on capturing the market.

If I were a say a chippy specialising in kitchen installs, I’d validate my niche and market the hell out of it now. If apartment kitchen installs dry up, I might need to go back to domestic kitchen upgrades? Or maybe even look for new carpentry markets?

I would then setup a digital stack with all the tools I’d need to generate lots of high quality leads for that niche. As I am not an expert in digital stacks or internet marketing, I’d look for someone to do most of it for me. I’d want to pay by the month as my cash flow would be tight.

It would be logical then to get a Digital Stack Pack from BottledCode! 

Marketing takes time to bring in work

One obvious solution that BottledCode can help you with is to establish a digital strategy now, so that in 6 months you have a nice steady stream of top paying clients.

Often tradies don’t think they need a website or digital strategy and rely heavily on word of mouth. But once competition ramps up in the dwindling market, this just won’t cut it.

You will need a dedicated strategy to beat the competition and find the work that will still be out there, albeit much harder to find. If you already have a website, then now is the time to modernise it update your whole Digital Stack (see below).
