Why I Created Workbelt:   Simplifying Life for One-Person Band Tradespeople.

🏗️ A Family Business That Sparked an Idea

Growing up, I was part of my family's scaffolding business. It was a business built on hard work, long days, and a relentless commitment to getting the job done. But like many trade businesses, the challenge wasn't just on the scaffold—it was in the office, or rather, the kitchen table where the admin tasks piled up.

"I remember watching my family juggle endless paperwork: crafting quotes late at night, chasing invoices, and trying to keep track of jobs on scraps of paper or spreadsheets."

That experience stuck with me. I started wondering: Why isn't there an easier way to manage all this? Tradespeople are some of the hardest-working people I know. They shouldn't have to sacrifice their evenings or weekends just to stay on top of the paperwork.

💡 The Birth of Workbelt

Workbelt was born out of that frustration and my desire to give back to the trade community I grew up in. I wanted to create a tool that was simple, powerful, and tailored to the needs of sole traders like you—something that would take the hassle out of admin so you could focus on what you do best: delivering great work for your customers.

🎯 Designed for Tradespeople, by Someone Who Gets It

This isn't just another generic business tool. Workbelt is built with tradespeople in mind because I've lived the reality of running a trade business. Whether you're a plumber, electrician, carpenter, or painter, the goal is the same: to help you reclaim your time.

Time you can spend taking on more jobs, growing your business, or doing something even more important—like catching your kids' football game, having dinner with your family, or just taking a well-earned breather.

⏰ Why Saving Time Matters

For sole traders, time is your most valuable asset. Every hour spent buried in admin is an hour you could be on-site earning, marketing your business, or enjoying your life. That's the core of what Workbelt is about: making your business more efficient so you can spend more time on what truly matters to you.
