Growing a business the easy way

Author: Dan Perry: Handyman | Small Business Owner July 18, 2024 Duration: 24:42
Will growing a business ever be easy? Maybe for a lucky few, but not for most people. The funny thing is that most people are waiting for it to be easy before they go after it. Or, they are avoiding the challenges that are between them and growth because it's not an easy path. In this episode, I share why you actually don't want it to be easy and some tips for making the journey easier (but still not easy).

Dan Perry has spent years building his own successful handyman business from the ground up, and in The Handyman Startup Podcast, he shares that hard-won knowledge without the fluff. Each episode feels like a practical conversation with a seasoned pro who’s been in your shoes, tackling the real-world challenges of turning skilled labor into a sustainable enterprise.

Dan’s perspective as a working handyman and small business owner provides a unique blend of street-smart tactics and long-term planning. Whether you're just considering hanging your own shingle or you're several years in and hitting growth plateaus, this podcast delivers actionable insights to help you build something solid and profitable.
