From Word-of-Mouth to $80,000 a Month
Before working with Lead Partners Direct, Guy's retaining wall business relied entirely on word of mouth and friend-of-friend referrals. He often felt obliged to quote cheaper rates for people he'd been referred by, and work came in unevenly - finish a job, hit a gap, then scramble to fill it. "I couldn't plan for anything. I couldn't get any bigger as a company."
He first came across Lead Partners Direct through Instagram reels, and after watching testimonials from other tradies with a mate, decided to give it a go.
What Changed
Constant Leads, His First Apprentice
"Nothing really happened for the first week," Guy says. "After that, it was constant. One day, then the next day, sometimes two leads in a day, and it just kept going like that." The consistency has let him take on his first apprentice, training him up building retaining walls.
“At least 80 grand a month. I've got four jobs open. The smallest one is 25 grand. The biggest one is 45. I basically average 40 grand per job.”
- Guy, Lead Partners Direct client
Day to day, Guy says the biggest change is no longer stressing about where the next job is coming from - and having the confidence to spend on marketing knowing it comes back. His advice to other tradies considering it: "I would say 100% jump in."

I basically average $40,000 per job - about $80,000 coming in every month.
Before we started working together, what was going on in your business?
I was just relying on word of mouth and working for friends - being stuck feeling like I needed to help these people out, cheaper rates for them, because they're friends of friends and been referred, and all that sort of stuff. So I was kind of stuck in a nowhere zone. Work wasn't flowing that well - it was more like finishing a job and then having a bit of a gap, then starting another job and trying to do bits and pieces in between to keep the money coming in. I couldn't plan for anything, and I couldn't get any bigger as a company. I couldn't take on too much work because it was just me, and I was relying on some mates to help when they had a day off.
What made you try Lead Partners Direct?
I saw the reels on Instagram and they sort of flooded my account - every time I opened up Instagram, your face was there. I was listening to what people were saying about you guys and how they'd been helped. It stuck with me. I was actually working at a mate's house, so we sat down together and watched it, and he said, 'you should try it' - and now you're one of those guys on the video, haha. Full circle.
You've been supplying me with all the leads. Nothing really happened for the first week. After that it was constant - one day, then the next day, then the next day, and sometimes two leads in a day. And then it just kept going like that, and it's still like that now. So it's been constant, which is great, and it's allowed me to grab a couple of young fellas who wanna be my apprentice, building retaining walls.
So what sort of money are you making?
At least $80,000 a month. I've got four jobs open - smallest one is $25,000, biggest one is $45,000, finish in a couple of weeks, and I can push through into the other jobs that are waiting. I basically average $40,000 per job - about $80,000 coming in every month.
So how has your business changed day to day?
No longer stress about where the next job is gonna come from. Gives me confidence in doing what I'm doing, and I'm able to spend a little money knowing that I'm gonna get that back as well, and make life easier on myself.
What would you tell other tradies who are considering jumping on board?
I would say 100% jump in. It's very eye-opening being in it for a few months, knowing where you can take your business - doing whatever trade it is that you have. Having those text messages, phone calls or emails coming through every day just gives you the confidence to branch out, increase your business.
