yip Your Import PartnerBuilders Systems & AI Profit Accelerator
A one day live workshop for residential builders with Kurt Hegetschweiler.
Protect your profit before you start the job.
- Know what every job really earns you, per week
- Get paid for pre-construction instead of giving it away
- Leave with AI running in your business and a 12-week plan
Melbourne stopped moving. It started renovating.
Owners have stopped moving and started renovating. Fewer new houses, more extensions and rebuilds. Fewer jobs, bigger jobs. Miss one and it costs you more than it used to.
Where the work is. And where it isn't.
- Owners with equity renovating or rebuilding instead of selling
- Knockdown rebuilds on land the owner already holds
- Hard sites. Slopes, overlays, heritage
- Architects sitting on plans that came back over budget
- Clients left stranded when their builder went under
- Spec homes and chasing volume at thin margins. That's how builders end up in the 984
You've spent three evenings on the numbers and now you're the bad guy. That isn't a site problem. Most of the money in a building business is won or lost before the slab is poured.
- 01Pricing off the wrong margin. Your P&L is right for tax and useless for pricing.
- 02Quoting for free. You do the numbers, the client shops them around.
- 03Taking the wrong job. It ties you up for a year and pays like a six month job.
This day fixes the front end. And uses AI to make it fast.
Pre-construction is the strategy. AI is the accelerator.
Two levers move profit in a building business: financial accuracy and client mastery. Everything else is noise. Laptop open, your own numbers, your own enquiries. Kurt teaches the system, shows you what his clients have put in place, and you build your first piece of it in the room.
Walk out with your numbers straight and a plan you start Monday.
Not notes. Decisions. Here's what changes by 4pm.
You know what every job really earns you
Not the number on the quote. What it puts in your pocket each week you're on it. You'll know which jobs to chase and which to walk away from, before you commit your team.
You price with confidence and stop apologising for it
Your real margin, from your own P&L, written down. You'll see why you've been working harder every year for the same money, and what to charge instead.
You get paid for pre-construction
Your own answer to "why would I pay for a quote?", and your own words for the hard conversations. You leave with a paid pre-con offer you can use on your next enquiry.
AI is running in your business by Monday
Built on your laptop, on the day, on your own enquiries. Real tools you'll actually use, not another app you never open. AI improves the decision. You still make it.
A 12-week plan. One priority, one owner, one number.
Four lines you write yourself: the business you're building, the jobs to do more of, the jobs to do less of, and your Monday move. Get them straight before you spend another dollar on leads.
Live. In person. A working session.
Bring last year's P&L, your laptop and your phone. Real numbers or pass. Nobody sees yours unless you choose to share them.
Book your seat
Every feedback form came back 5 out of 5.
Was it worth their time. Would they recommend it. Could they apply something straight away. Every form said yes on all three.
He didn't build any better. He got disciplined.
Twelve years in business. Flat out, three small jobs hanging off a big one, touch and go every time the BAS landed. Dave could always build. He had no idea what any job actually made him.
He put the processes in, in order. Real costings with his own supervision in them. A price he stopped negotiating down. No more free quotes, no more small jobs. Same builder. Two jobs at a time, and a business that pays him properly.
Built for builders who are done guessing.
✓This is for you if
- You run a residential building business doing $1M to $10M+ a year
- You're busy but the profit doesn't match the turnover
- You want AI working in your business, not another app you never open
✕This is not for you if
- You're a commercial or tier-one builder, a developer, or a subbie without a building business
- You're a start-up with no established revenue yet
- You want motivation, not a working session on your numbers
yip Your Import Partner are backing the Melbourne workshop, and they'll be in the room on the day.
This is not about doing more. It's about doing better.
One room, one day, two levers. You work on your business with your numbers in front of you, with a coach who has run a building company and personally coached hundreds of them.
Kurt Hegetschweiler
Founder of Builders Coach. Author of Million Dollar Builder and Million Dollar Builder 2.0. Kurt has owned a renovations business and launched a national luxury custom home building franchise, so he knows first-hand what it feels like to be behind the wheel of a building company. Since 2004 he has personally coached hundreds of residential builders on profit, cash flow and workflow, and helped many of them into the 7 Figure Club.
Every job you price off the wrong margin between now and then costs you.
HIA expects fewer starts in 2027 because sales are falling now. The builders who fix their front end before Christmas are the ones with a pipeline next year. Seats are limited to the room. Once it's full, it's full.

Straight answers.
Is this for me if I'm a smaller builder?
If you're running an established residential building business, yes. Most of the room is between $1M and $10M turnover. The systems scale down as well as up. If you haven't built anything yet, wait until you have.
Do I have to show anyone my numbers?
No. You work on your own P&L and your own enquiries on your own laptop. Nobody sees yours unless you choose to share them. Real numbers or pass.
Do I need to be good with AI or tech?
No. If you can use your phone, you can do this. Bring your laptop. Kurt walks you through it in the room, step by step, on your own enquiries. This is not prompt tricks.
Can I bring my office person or business partner?
Yes, and you should. Most of what we cover is a decision you make together, and it's easier to make in the same room. Two tickets are $309.
What do I need to bring?
Last year's P&L, ex GST. Your laptop and your phone. The ten oldest enquiries in your inbox you never closed out. Everything else is provided, including lunch.
Where in Melbourne is it?
Melbourne CBD. The venue and parking details are emailed with your ticket confirmation.
Is the early bird still on?
No, it closed Friday 23 October. Seats are $249, or $309 for two. Same day, same room, same content. Seats are limited to the room, so once it's full, it's full.
