From a Ute and Trailer to 8 Staff and $200k a Month
Beau runs a house demolition business around Brisbane - full house demos, strip-outs and hand demolitions. Before working with Lead Partners Direct, he was a one-man operation: a ute, a trailer, and whatever small jobs he could pick up, including subcontracting to other demolition companies by the hour and relying on HiPages, where he found the competition "too cutthroat" and full of people chasing the cheapest quote.
He saw a Lead Partners Direct ad on Facebook and, in his own words, was skeptical at first - "it sounded too good to be true." What sold him was the no lock-in contract. "I was like, well, what have I got to lose?"
Six To Seven Months In
More House Demos Than He Could Handle
In a recorded interview around six to seven months into working with Lead Partners Direct, Beau described getting more house demolitions than he could handle - four to five a month - turning over more than $100,000 in a typical month, and having hired a couple of guys on full-time. He was easing off the tools, spending more time meeting clients, and no longer doing late nights on the computer.
“When I first signed up with Russell and Lindsey at Lead Partners Direct just over 12 months ago, I was a small, one man band business turning around 20k a month. At first I was buying leads off a lead generating website that they owned and since then they have built my own website which is now on top of the Google search list. I now employ 8 people and my business turns over close to 200k a month. Russell, Lindsey and the team at Lead Partners Direct are some of the most hard working people I know who have a true passion for being the best at what they do and will not settle for mediocre results. I cannot recommend them enough.”

Just over a year in, Beau’s own public review confirms the growth continued: from a $20,000-a-month solo operation to a team of 8 turning over close to $200,000 a month.

I do demolition - mainly residential houses, house demos. You know, strip-outs and stuff like that.
Where do you do it, Beau?
Surrounding areas of Brisbane, but yeah, mainly Brisbane. When you first start your business it's really hard, mate - to start and get the work you know you can do. I was on the hunt for leads. I was on HiPages, pretty much just relying on that, but the competition on HiPages is just too cutthroat - people are just looking for the cheapest quote.
How big was your business back then?
You know, I had a ute and a trailer. I was just working on my own with the small stuff - pulling down garden sheds, doing all these little hand demolitions, and subcontracting to other demo companies just by the hour. I probably still get the odd one - just getting the old house demo here and there, and then going back to doing the little strip-outs.
How many house demos are you getting a month now?
More than I can handle, to tell you the truth. So, you know, that's four, five a month.
How much are five houses in a month worth to you? Like, what do you charge, you know?
Over a hundred grand a month I've been turning over. I saw your ad pop up on Facebook, actually jumped on it - honestly it sounded too good to be true at first, but as soon as you said there's no lock-in contract, that sold me. I was just like, well, what have I got to lose, you know? I've got friends and family who run businesses, mate, and one thing I've learned is that you just gotta take any chance you can see - it's the only way you'll ever be successful. I was a little bit skeptical at first, because it's just this random person off the internet, off Facebook of all things. I contacted you, we spoke over the phone, and you were very keen. I did my own research - your LinkedIn profile, you know - and you're very transparent and very open. I thought, well, what have I got to lose?
So six, seven months later - tell us what does the day-to-day look like?
I've hired a couple of guys, put them on full-time, so I'm easing off the tools a bit now, mate - got a bit more time to go and meet clients, rub shoulders with them. I don't do the late nights on the computer - I can take a day off and get all my admin work done.
So, revenue-wise, what's a quiet month for you?
A hundred grand, easy. My phone just went off - didn't stop ringing, you know. The emails were coming in for quotes. And you were a good coach, mate, and a good teacher - gave me some really good advice on how to talk to clients. After hitting your advice and applying it, my conversion rates went up.
Some people listening to this will go - is it worth it?
Yeah, definitely, mate. It's - you can't afford not to do this. Stop thinking about it and do it. What do you wanna do - stuff around making peanuts and struggle? To my mates who are starting businesses, I tell them: call this guy, he's Russell - I'll give you his number. He will sort you out, anything to do with marketing. He's your guy, mate.
