  • #72 - How to Scale a Construction Company with Ian Lambert | Paul Mort Talks Sh*t Podcast
    Apr 9 2025

    How do you scale a construction company WITHOUT burning out, f*cking up your margins, or ending up back on the tools?

    In this episode, I sit down with my client Ian Lambert, a builder who decided he was DONE being “just another tradesman”… and instead built a serious business.

    We break down exactly how the coaching in Alliance helped Ian:
    ✅ Go from working IN the business to leading it
    ✅ Build systems that let him step back
    ✅ Land higher-quality clients (who pay more, expect less BS)
    ✅ And finally scale his construction company to the next level

    This isn’t your usual “feel good” story. This is what happens when a self-employed builder gets honest, gets a roadmap, and gets to WORK.

    If you’re a builder, contractor, or construction business owner who wants more than just a diary full of jobs - you need to watch this.

    What we cover:
    🔨 How to scale a construction company without chaos
    📈 The truth about business growth in the trades
    🧱 Why most builders get stuck at 10-20k/month
    ⚙️ The mindset and systems behind real scaling
    📞 And how coaching can completely change your game
