  • Engaging and rewarding

    I was looking for something to help inspire myself and my husband for our building company, and I they had me at “helping get you off the tools”! Nic and Waz are fun to listen to and their is always a gold nugget to take away from each episode. It’s a must listen for anyone trying to get their head around all the stuff you don’t think of having to deal with (and even some of the stuff you do) within your own trade business.
