In this episode of *The Amanda Kaufman Show*, I sit down with Dylan Jones, founder of Profit Launchpad, to dive into the world of coaching, entrepreneurship, and building sustainable businesses.
Dylan has an impressive background in private equity and operations consulting, and he's now channeling that expertise into helping blue-collar business owners grow profitable companies without burning out.
We explore the lessons Dylan has learned from years of optimizing operations and launching his own successful coaching program. He shares key insights into how coaches can start small, test their ideas, and iterate over time to create meaningful results for their clients. One of his main takeaways? Don't rush to scale—take your time to understand your audience and refine your approach before expanding.
Dylan also emphasizes the importance of knowing your own limits and bringing in subject matter experts to support your clients in areas outside your expertise. This is a powerful reminder that no coach needs to be everything to everyone. Instead, the best coaches focus on their strengths, delegate when needed, and deliver value where it matters most.
We also talk about the importance of finding your niche, especially as a new coach. Dylan shares his journey from private equity back to the blue-collar space—a community he grew up in and understands deeply. His focus on trades businesses came from a mix of personal experience and professional expertise, and he encourages coaches to consider the communities they're already part of when choosing a niche.
