from The ToolShed Podcast · host Mick Hawes

Are your biggest projects actually your least profitable? In this episode of The ToolShed Podcast (EP 168 Part 1), I sit down with Adrian Ramsay , award-winning building designer and host of Dream Homes Revealed, to unpack the truth about profit, projects, and building a business that works. Adrian shares how smaller "learning projects" can often deliver better margins than large, ego-driven builds, and why choosing the right clients matters more than chasing big-dollar jobs. We also touch on simple financial systems, cash flow, and turning challenges into strengths in business. Key Takeaways:• Small projects can drive higher profit • Don't chase jobs, choose the right clients • Build systems that support your business Tune in and rethink how you approach profit and growth.
