BUSY IS BULLSH*T With Daren Henderson

If every question, decision and problem still comes back to you, how much bigger can your business get before you burn out?
In this episode of Busy Is Bullsh*t, Daren shares how he went from being the answer to everything to running a trade business with 27 staff, nearly £2 million in turnover and around two hours a week of his involvement.
There was no magic software or one employee who fixed everything. It took years of building the team, documenting how things worked and learning to hand over responsibility without taking it straight back.
An honest look at the practical changes, and uncomfortable decisions, behind building a business that can work without you.

In Episode 2 of Busy Is Bullshi*t, Daren explains what he calls the “£500K owner trap”: building a company that depends on you for absolutely everything, and what had to change before the business could grow to nearly £2 million in turnover.
He shares why growth stalled at the Edinburgh Driveway Company, how constantly stepping in taught his team to rely on him, and what had to change before the business could grow to nearly £2 million in turnover.

In the first episode of Busy Is Bullsh*t, Tradecoach founder Daren Henderson shares how he started the Edinburgh Driveway Company and went on to build a construction business turning over nearly £2 million a year, with 27 staff and four teams.
It’s a candid, sweary account of winning his first customers, finding people to deliver the work and figuring things out as he went.
