No pitch. No pressure. Answer a few questions, and if we're a fit I'll be in touch.

I built this in my own business.

Jake Ruwhiu

I'm Jake. I run a roofing business in Perth. It took me over four years to perfect this proposal and sales system frameworks, and it's made my business millions of dollars in sales. Not a theory. Not a framework I copied from a YouTube guy. The actual thing I use every week to win commercial and residential jobs.

Take what you're selling now.
Double it. Triple it.

Not with more leads. Not with more quotes. With one proven system that wins the jobs already landing on your desk.

Built around your business. Run by you. Me in your corner the whole way.

Real customers saying yes.

Real email replies from real clients confirming they want to go ahead with their quote. First names only. Last names removed for privacy. The words are theirs.

Three reasons your quotes aren't winning.

Most tradies losing jobs blame the price. Almost always, it's not the price. It's three other things that nobody told you mattered.

01

Your quote looks like every other quote in their inbox.

Standard job-software PDF. Logo at the top. Line items in the middle. Total at the bottom. Looks the same as the four other quotes the customer just got. When everything looks the same, the only thing left to decide on is price. So price wins.

02

You send it and disappear like you owe them money.

Email subject: "Quote." Body: "Hi, please find attached." That's it. No framing message. No reflection of their problem. No clear next step. The customer opens it, scans the price, closes the tab, and forgets about you by lunchtime.

03

Your follow-up is one text three days later.

"Just following up, any thoughts?" Sent late. Ignored. You don't follow up again because you don't want to be pushy. The deal dies in silence and you go quote the next one. Then you wonder why your close rate is what it is.

How the winning quote gets built.

Five steps. All done with you, not handed to you. You keep running your business while I build the thing that wins you jobs.

01

The Deep Dive

We pull apart how you quote now. The tool, the words, the follow up, the close rate. I map exactly where you're leaking jobs and what it's costing you. No fluff. Just the diagnosis.

02

The Story

We pull out who you are and why you're different, and I build it into the proposal. The customer feels it before they reach the price. Nobody can copy it, because nobody else is you.

03

The Proposal

One document that does the selling. Your brand, your scope, your terms, your pricing. Built from scratch around your business and laid out so the customer chooses how much to spend, not whether to spend. Yours to keep and use on every quote from here on.

04

The Sales Process

First contact to closed job. The site visit, the delivery message that doesn't read like an email from the bank, the follow up that gets a yes or no fast, and the answers to the objections your customers actually throw at you. Built around the tools you use, or simple enough to run from your phone if that's where you're at.

05

In Your Corner

I stay with you through your first quotes with the new system. Direct access when a deal gets tricky, and my feedback after each quote goes out. Most operators don't fail on the system. They fail when they slip back to old habits under pressure. I'm there so that doesn't cost you a job.

Why this proposal is different.

The proposal isn't just a price quote with a logo. It's a story, a sales pitch, a contract, and a piece of marketing all in one document. Built right, the document does the heavy lifting your conversation can't.

Anywhere up to 17 pages depending on your business and trade. All custom-built around you. No filler. Every page doing a job.

Built to your brand's feel, look, colour scheme, and voice. Looks like it came from your business because it did.

01

It builds trust before the price lands.

The proposal tells your story. Who you are. How you got here. How you help. It reflects the customer's specific problem back to them, the one they told you about on the site visit. By the time they reach the price, they're already most of the way to yes.

02

It answers every question and objection up front.

Most quotes leave customers with unanswered questions. What's included. What's not. When you can start. What if something goes wrong. How payment works. The proposal answers all of it inside the document. The customer doesn't need to chase you. They don't go ask another tradie. They just decide.

03

It positions you as a top-tier operator.

Real work evidence. Past job photos. Testimonials from your customers. Industry-standard terms. Clear payment structure. The proposal looks and reads like a serious business because you ARE one. Customers go from "is this guy any good?" to "this is the operator I want." Peace of mind on their side. Trust on yours.

04

The proposal and sales process work as one.

A proposal without a sales process built around it is like a sports car with no fuel. Looks the part. Goes nowhere.

The two together is what changes the math. Not small bumps. Operators running both can see 10x, 20x, even 50x changes in what they're winning. The proposal is the artefact. The sales process is the engine. You need both.

When a customer reads a proposal like this, the price isn't the question anymore. The question is when do we start.

A sales process built around you.
Not just a quote.

The proposal wins their attention. The sales process wins the job. I build you a simple, repeatable rhythm from first enquiry to signed deal, the same six phases I use to win commercial and residential work. Built around your trade and the tools you already use, or simple enough to run from your phone.

Phase 01 · Extraction

Qualify before you quote.

We capture the right information and qualify the lead before you burn a site visit. You chase only the jobs worth chasing, and you walk in already knowing the job.

Phase 02 · Preparation

Ready before you arrive.

Everything prepped so you look like the expert before you say a word, and your proposal goes out in days, not weeks. Speed is what kills hesitation.

Phase 03 · Nurture

They trust you before they meet your price.

The customer gets to know who you are before you turn up. By the time you're on site, you're not a stranger quoting a job, you're the operator they were hoping would show.

Phase 04 · Execution

Win the site visit.

A clear game plan for the visit that builds trust, handles the objections before they land, and sets up the close. No more defending your price on the back foot.

Phase 05 · Follow Up

The follow-up that gets a decision.

A structured, calm follow-up rhythm that gets you a yes or a no, without ever feeling pushy. No more deals dying in silence three days after you sent the quote.

Phase 06 · Lock In

Turn the yes into a signed job.

Make it dead easy for them to say yes, then lock it in. A verbal yes becomes a signed acceptance and a deposit, fast, before it has a chance to cool off.

This isn't a course.
There's no homework.

Most coaches hand you a course and tell you to figure it out. I do the opposite. Because if I wanted you to figure it out yourself, I'd sell you a $97 PDF and we could both get on with our lives.

I gather what I need from you up front. I build the proposal and sales process custom for your business. I tailor every piece to your trade, your customers, your voice. I hand it over and walk you through how to use it. Every step of the way.

While I'm building it out, you keep running your business. Quoting, working, doing what actually pays. If I need something from you mid-build, I'll shoot you a quick message. That's it. Your time stays focused on what matters. Mine goes into the work.

You don't implement anything. I build it. You use it.

From this. To this.

Same operator. Same trade. Same skill. Different proposal, different process, different result.

Quoting late Sunday nights, exhausted, resentful
A system that takes hours off your quoting every week

This is for you if...

If you're a handyman quoting $200 patch jobs, this won't help you. Speed and presence is your game, and there are better people to help you with that. If you're an operator quoting $10k to $500k jobs where the customer takes weeks to decide, this is exactly your fight.

This isn't for you if...

If the money isn't there yet, this isn't for you right now. No hard feelings. Come back when it is.

I'm Jake Ruwhiu.

I'm an Aussie business owner and operator. I've built multiple businesses over the years. Some have failed. Some have succeeded. My current operation is a roofing business in Perth, grown from one person to over fifteen staff.

I know the ins and outs of running a tradie business because I had to learn them the hard way. Across multiple ventures. Some that worked. Some that didn't. The lessons are the same either way.

If someone had handed me this proposal and sales system when I was 1-2 years in, I'd have had a major head start. Years of figuring it out the hard way I wouldn't wish on anyone. So I built it. Now I'm handing it to you.

I'm not a coach by trade. I'm an operator who got tired of the quoting game, figured out how to win it, and now wants other tradies to skip the years of figuring-it-out I had to do.

I'm here for you. If you need a quick message mid-deal, I'll help where I can. I'm passionate about seeing tradies win, because I remember being in your spot wishing I had someone in my corner.

I work with a small number of tradies at a time. Not because I'm "exclusive." Because I've got a real business to run and I do this work 1:1.

Four steps. No sales call in sight.
