Who this suits, and who it does not

People who do well

Anybody comfortable walking into a builder’s yard and starting a conversation. That is the whole first skill, and no script teaches it. Either you will knock on the door or you will find reasons not to.

Ex-trades. Someone who has run a small firm knows why quoting takes their evenings and can say so in a sentence that lands, because they lived it. A CSCS card in a drawer is an advantage here, not a leftover.

People selling something else to the same buyer. If you already call on small contractors (plant hire, materials, insurance, accountancy) you have the relationships and the route, and this is non-exclusive so it sits alongside.

People who want the income to compound rather than reset. If a monthly target that goes back to zero in January is the part of sales you hate, recurring commission is the answer to it.

People who struggle

Anybody who needs money next month. There is no salary, no retainer and no advance, and the first commission lands months after your first sale because of the free trial and the refund window. If that gap would hurt, take a salaried job. That is a reasonable choice.

People who want to be told what to do each day. Nobody sets you targets, nobody rings to check where you are, and there is no manager to escalate to. Some people find that liberating and some find it paralysing.

Pure closers. Half the money here comes from customers staying, so the work does not end at the signature. If keeping in touch with somebody you already sold to feels like unpaid work, the economics will not suit you.

What you do not need

A construction background. It helps and it is not required; the product knowledge is taught during accreditation, and we will join any demonstration you want help with.

A software background. You are not being asked to be technical. You are being asked to show an owner that their quote goes out tonight instead of on Sunday.

A limited company. Sole trader is fine. You need your own UTR because the paperwork is self-billed, and if you are VAT registered you charge VAT.

A patch nobody else has. Territories are not exclusive and are not carved up. You work where you work.

Questions people ask

Can I do this alongside another job?

Yes. There is no minimum hours, no exclusivity and no compulsory meetings. Do be realistic: this is in-person selling to people who are on site during the day, so evenings and weekends alone will be slow going.

I have never done sales. Is that a problem?

It is a real disadvantage and not a disqualifier. The accreditation covers the product and how to sell it honestly, and we will come on demonstrations with you until you would rather we did not. What we cannot teach is the willingness to start conversations with strangers.

Do you take on partners outside the UK?

No. The product is built for UK construction (CIS, RAMS, RIDDOR, UK VAT) and the buyers are here.

How many partners are you taking?

The programme is new and we are appointing the first partners now. Territories are not exclusive, so there is no cap in the sense of a map with pins in it, but we would rather support a few partners properly than hold a directory of names.
