There are a lot of unethical businesses out there!

In this episode, I’m talking about an experience that I am currently going through with a dishonest, unethical IT company in, Sydney, who have proven themselves to be not only unprofessional, but also straight up destructive to my business and some of my clients.

The reason I share this story is so that I can hopefully help many of you to NOT get in the same situation yourselves. At the end of the day, it was completely avoidable and it’s caused a ridiculous amount much unnecessary grief.

The key takeaway’s from this podcast are:

Don’t go into business with someone, just because they’re mates.
Always insist on terms and conditions.
Always have a contract in place.
Stand up for what you believe.
Go legal if you have to.

This scenario is not yet over, so I’ll keep you posted on proceedings as they update.

Great work Matt with all the podcasts and the site shed facebook community group. The amount of information that you can learn for free in this space is unbelieveable. It's great to see like minded contractors and trades trying to improve their businesses and also share ideas and help others. Highly recommend. Thanks!

I have been listening to the pod casts for a few months now, I can't get enough of all the awesome content that you guys provide. Especially when you guys deliver it from a trade perspective which helps out a lot. Keep up the good work and hopefully one day I can afford one of the trade training trips.
