Sound familiar?

Most handyman businesses aren’t broken. They’re just missing a system.

If any of these hit close to home, you’re in the right place.

A handyman business owner reviewing invoices and numbers on a laptop late at night
  • You're underpricing your work and not sure what to charge
  • You're quoting jobs at 10pm when you should be done for the day
  • Your follow-up is inconsistent, jobs slip through the cracks
  • You don't know your actual margins or job costs
  • Hiring is a gamble and good techs are hard to keep
  • The business doesn't run without you in the middle of everything

You don’t have a lead problem.

You have a system problem. That’s what we fix.

How we work with you

The foundation: build your business the right way

Before you scale, you need the right pricing, the right sales process, the right operations, and real financial clarity. These are the systems we build with you, side by side, until they’re running. Not a binder we hand over and walk away from.

Pricing & Job Costing

Know what to charge, and what you actually made.

  • Flat-rate pricing built for real margins
  • Labor and material cost capture
  • Per-job profitability tracking

Sales Process

A repeatable process that closes, whether you or your techs.

  • Discovery and on-site evaluation scripts
  • Objection handling that works
  • Close-rate tracking and review

SOPs & Operations

Run smooth. Scale without falling apart.

  • Documented job and dispatch workflows
  • Scheduling that holds up under volume
  • Customer communication systems

Hiring & Onboarding

Stop gambling on who you hire.

  • Job postings and interview process
  • Compensation structures for techs
  • Onboarding frameworks that stick

Team Structure

Build a team that runs without you in every call.

  • Clear roles and responsibilities
  • Management and leadership structure
  • Weekly accountability rhythms

Financial Clarity

Know your numbers. Run with confidence.

  • Clean books and job costing
  • Gross-margin tracking
  • Targets and KPIs you actually watch

Not just advice. Built into your business.

We implement these systems alongside you (with our team, accountability, and real support) until they’re working. Every system was built and proven inside a real ~$6M/year handyman business.

How we sell with you

The Hybrid Estimating System

Most handyman businesses don’t have a pricing problem. They have a presentation problem: the quote goes cold in an inbox instead of getting sold in the home.

Emailing quotes

The slow way to lose jobs

  • The quote goes out by email, and gets ignored
  • The homeowner shops three other companies
  • Your tech has no way to close on-site
  • You're writing estimates at midnight
  • Close rate stays stuck below 40%

With the Hybrid System

Sold in the home, on-site

  • A virtual estimator joins your tech by video, in real time
  • The estimate is built and presented on-site
  • Professional pricing delivered while the homeowner is still there
  • Objections handled by a trained sales pro
  • Follow-up handled automatically, nothing falls through

The 4-step process, on every call

  1. Gather the scope

    Your technician walks the job with the homeowner, identifying every piece of work needed. Nothing is missed, nothing is left vague.

  2. Step away to build

    The tech connects with a virtual estimator to build an accurate, professional estimate using your pricing system.

  3. Present live

    Back in front of the homeowner, the estimate is walked through line by line. No guessing, no waiting.

  4. Close or follow up

    The decision happens while you're on-site. For the jobs that don't, a proven follow-up sequence keeps the conversation alive.

The operator behind the systems

These systems came from a real business. Not a classroom.

Ben Alexander built and exited a roughly $6M/year handyman business in Dallas, Texas. Every pricing sheet, sales script, estimating workflow, and hiring system TradeworX installs was built there first, under real pressure, with real crews and real customers.

You’re not getting theory from someone who read about the trades. You’re getting the exact systems from an operator who ran the business, hit the ceilings, and worked out what actually holds up in the field.

Straight answers

Questions owners ask us first

Who is TradeworX for?

Handyman business owners who want to build real systems, from solo operators to multi-truck operations. This isn't a consumer handyman service. It's for the person running the business who's ready to stop winging it.

What happens after I submit the form?

You're taken straight to your free Business Growth Analysis, a short diagnostic built around your numbers. Once you've completed it, you can book a consultation to walk through your plan.

Why does the analysis come before a consultation?

So the call is actually useful. The analyzer shows where your business is strong and where profit is leaking, which means we spend the call on your plan instead of gathering the basics.

Is there a budget threshold to work together?

Yes. TradeworX is built for owners able to invest at least $500/month in growing their business, and willing to follow a structured system. If that's not where you are yet, the free analysis is still yours to keep.

Do you work with businesses outside the U.S.?

TradeworX works with U.S.-based handyman businesses.

Do you guarantee results?

No. We don't promise revenue, leads, or income. What we do is implement proven systems alongside you, step by step. The figures on this page are Ben's and TradeworX's track record, not a typical or guaranteed outcome.
