Mat and Sheena are your run of the mill couple, with 4 kids running a Tradie business in the South Gippsland region. They run a fantastic concreting business named 'Linxcrete' that has grown it's staff by 135% in 12 months, and it's profitability by 250%
Mat & Sheena discuss where they were 3 years ago and the thought that they were successful back then, with Mat and another tradesman working together but not being able to make ends meet and living week by week. Mat recalls a week when they only had $15 left in the bank after paying all the staff.
Now - they don't freak out if a bill comes in, they have savings, steady cashflow and they know what work is projected to come in also.
The Linke's tell us all about how they are keeping and growing their team, through giving them a vision inside the business, and for themselves to achieve their own goals.
Mat is a numbers addict - he never used to even know what net profit was, let alone exactly what profit he will make months in advance. He 'just knows em' and he can balance and budget accordingly.
Sheena has unwaveringly supported Mat in a way that is just so great - she provides feedback without criticism and brings him down to earth when he needs it.
These guys are bound for great things and we can't wait to see what they do next.
Have a listen - learn about what it took for a struggling little concreting business to go from a couple of hundred grand business to over a million in only 2 years.
Bloody legends.
