If you're nodding at any of these...

Pattern 1

Working 70+ hour weeks because nothing runs without you

Pattern 2

Margins that feel more like guesses than numbers

Pattern 3

Can't take a real week off without things breaking

...that's exactly the kind of business we're built to work with.

Trade contractors doing $500K to $5M

We work with contractors who have outgrown their current systems but have not yet built the infrastructure to support their next level.

On-Call Services

Handyman, plumbing, electrical, HVAC. High volume, fast turnaround. Your pricing needs to be dialed and your dispatch needs to be tight.

Small Repeatable Jobs

Roof repairs, painting, fencing, concrete. Predictable scope, repeatable process. Your SOPs and templates should do the thinking for you.

Large Custom Projects

Remodels, new construction, commercial. Complex scoping, long timelines. Your project management and change order process needs to be bulletproof.

We classify by how you operate, not what trade you're in. That's how systems become replicable.

Everything your business needs to run without you

A 13-week, 3-phase engagement. Every deliverable is built from your diagnostic data and lives inside your operating system.

Phase 1

Detect

Find out what your business actually does, where it leaks, and how it should be priced.

Company Workbook

Your operational backbone. Service catalog, materials library, personnel records, sub roster, client manager, and financial summary. One file, one truth.

SOP Database

Step-by-step procedures, quality checklists, materials lists, scheduling parameters, and upsell guidance for every service you offer.

Financial Dashboard

Per-job margin tracking, weekly P&L snapshots, cash flow visibility, and revenue by service type. Offensive approach to finances.

Margin-Based Pricing

Every service priced to hit 25 to 65% profit margins. Not markup. Margin. Most contractors are leaving 10 to 20% on the table and do not know it.

Phase 2

Develop

Develop the systems and the team that turn the diagnostic into a business that runs without you.

Daily Operations Sheet

Where data enters the system every day. Job tracking, payroll, mileage, receipts, contractor management, and daily P&L.

Communication Protocol

Field-to-office rules, client-facing templates, escalation protocol, weekly meeting structure, and department check-ups. Built around how your team actually communicates.

Hiring from the Hate List

Your first hire comes from the work you hate most. Job description, interview questions, compensation benchmarking, red flags list, and a 90-day onboarding plan.

OS Configuration

Your project management platform fully set up with templates, workflows, and automations tailored to how your business actually runs.

Phase 3

Implement

Roll it out to the team with the documentation in their hands, then stay plugged in for the long game.

12-Month Roadmap

Revenue projections, growth priorities by quarter, hiring milestones, and key checkpoints. Built from real engagement data, not guesses.

Operations Manual

The hit-by-a-bus document. All SOPs, role charts, process maps, contact lists, and system guides compiled into one reference.

Retainer Transition

Monthly check-in framework, success metrics, revenue tracking, and on-call scope. We got the ball rolling. Now we stay plugged in while you run it.

Coming 2026: 1 year free of our contractor OS

Throne CRM is the operating system we are building for trade contractors. Every engagement client gets the highest tier free for a full year once it ships.

Three numbers that all point to the same thing

We grow together. The engagement builds the foundation. The partnership keeps it sharp. The sales work accelerates growth when you want that gear.

$20,000

The 13-week engagement

$2,000 to start, then $1,500 a week for 12 weeks. This is what builds your operating system with you. Diagnostic, workbook, SOPs, financial dashboard, hiring framework, the full stack. Same price for everyone, posted right here so there's nothing hidden.

Why:You see the work every week. You see the invoices every week. The pace stays honest on both sides.

2.5%

Ongoing partnership

After the build wraps, we stay plugged in for 2.5% of any monthly revenue above where you started. If a month doesn't beat your starting baseline, you don't owe anything that month. Our incentive is your growth. Nothing else.

Why:You get a partner who keeps showing up. We get a reason to keep showing up. Your operating system stays sharp as your business evolves.

Sales partnership

Optional, when you want it

Some clients want help filling the pipeline, not just running it. If that's you, we can bring deals to your door, you close them, and we share commission on what closes. Terms shaped around your sales cycle and margins, because every business is different here.

Why:Most contractors are bottlenecked on revenue, not on capacity. If we can help fill the pipeline, your growth accelerates and our partnership compounds.

The engagement builds the foundation. The partnership keeps it sharp. The sales work accelerates growth when you want that gear. Three pieces, one direction: forward, together.
