No more doing things the hard way – this new platform is helping tradies save thousands per year
A new tradie-made super hub is helping tradespeople reduce the cost of doing business by saving money on tools and business services across Australia.
For generations, the trade industry has been the foundation of Australia. Despite being one of the country’s largest workforces, a lack of support and industry resources means that tradies often unknowingly overspend on – and choose the wrong – tools, software and services.
Adam Goodfellow witnessed these challenges firsthand while learning the industry ropes as an electrician. Through his experience, Adam discovered that many businesses – especially those founded in the generation before the internet – had to rely on guesswork and trial by error for their day-to-day business and operational needs.
With many independent tradespeople relying on word-of-mouth marketing – with no business help, support services or educational tools available – countless tradies end up wasting time and money chasing prices, suppliers and businesses support.
“While working as an electrician, I watched trades business owners doing everything the hard way and kept thinking, there has to be a better way,” says Adam. “Small trade businesses and tradespeople are the backbone of this country, yet we cop all the costs and get next to no support. That’s exactly why I built Tradiespace – to change that.”

Conceived and built by those with years of industry experience, Tradiespace compiles essential trade products and services – think vetted suppliers, reliable service providers, tools, software, tradie-specific insurance and bookkeeping – in one easily accessible and convenient place.
Tradiespace has already unlocked approximately $10,000 in yearly savings for more than 20,000 tradies using the program, thanks to significant discounts (including savings on items they are already buying) and better-priced expert business services that assist in making smarter decisions, faster.
With all partners operating on the platform being verified and trade-ready, tradies are skipping the risk associated with trialling service providers themselves. With free expert advice and strategy sessions available, tradies can also avoid mistakes and inefficiencies, putting more profit in their pockets.
