You Built a Successful Business. Why Does It Still Need So Much of You?
The business is established. The work is there. You have a team around you. From the outside, it looks like it’s working. But everything still comes back to you.
Sound like your business?
- If you weren’t there, the business would fall apart
- You’ve got plenty of work on, but money still feels tight
You can’t find or keep good people
- Everything feels like a priority
- The systems are all in your head
- You’re home, but your head’s still at work
If two or more of those hit home, the business has outgrown the way it’s being run. That’s fixable. The first step is knowing which one is costing you most.
The Business Owners Blueprint
Before We Fix Anything, We Work Out What Actually Needs Fixing
One of the easiest ways to waste six months in business is to solve the wrong problem.
You hire another person when the real issue is poor accountability. You chase more sales when the work you already have is not profitable enough. You put another system in place when nobody is clear about who owns what.
The Business Owners Blueprint gives us a way to step back and look at the whole business across nine disciplines and three levels of development. From there, we can identify the real constraints and put the work in the right order.
Your first step is to take the free 2-minute Business Independence Score and find out exactly what’s keeping you trapped, and what to fix first.
Meet Rueben Taylor
I've Been on Both Sides of This
I have spent more than 25 years coaching business owners, but some of the most useful lessons I bring to the table did not come from coaching. I have built multimillion dollar businesses, led teams of up to 23 people, worked through partner exits and rebuilt a business carrying $500,000 in debt.
I have made good decisions and expensive ones. I have built, simplified and rebuilt. Today, that experience is a big part of how I work with business owners.

Why Business Owners Trust Rueben
Experience From Both Sides of Business
The advice is shaped by building successful businesses as well as working through cashflow pressure, restructuring, debt and rebuilding.
An Engineer's Approach to Problems
Rueben's background in engineering and business means there is a strong bias toward diagnosis, numbers and understanding the cause before prescribing the fix.
Evidence, Not Business Theatre
Rueben's clients have produced significant improvements in revenue, profit, team performance and owner workload. The work is judged by what changes in the business, not how exciting the coaching session feels.
Established Businesses Only
BSE is focused on established Perth trade and service businesses. This is not start-up coaching and it is not designed to be everything to everyone.
Straight
Conversations
Sometimes the owner is part of the problem. Sometimes a team member is. Sometimes the numbers simply do not support what everyone wants to believe. Good coaching needs enough trust to say that.
A Broader Definition of Success
Rueben believes a business should create profit, opportunity and security, but it should also give the owner greater choice over how they spend their life.
Real Businesses. Real Numbers. Real Change.
Business coaching should create something you can see in the business. Across Rueben’s clients, that has included dramatic improvements in profit, stronger teams and owners getting significant amounts of time back.

We went from $12K profit last year to over $270K this year — but more than that, we’re finally working together, with less stress and more time for family.
Consistent Profits
Paul & Linda – The Green Life Soil Co.
We were struggling financially. That’s now changed with turnover up 19% in the last 6 months and we are averaging 16% net profit every month.
Revenue Up 11X

Revenue is up 11 times. I have gone from working 50 hours a week down to 30…plus I can now take a month off from my business.
Tripled Business & Got 20 Hours Back
Jimi Meyer – Blu Frog Plumbing
I was able to make real changes – fast. I cut my workload by 15-20 hours a week, grew from 2 to 4 plumbers, and tripled my turnover within 8 months.
From $30 to $500K & Working Less
Ben – Hose Right
Turnover grew from $30K to $500K/mth and I went from 80 hour weeks down to 20. I can go away knowing my team will do the right thing
Saved 30 Hours and More Holidays
Jason D’Costa – Photosnap
My working week went from 70-75 to 45 and not working weekends. For the first time as a business owner I have work/life balance.
Freed up 4 Hours a Day for Family Time

I’m less stressed and the guys get a lot more of my time into how things work. I have freed up 4 hours a day and enjoy much more family time.
Growth and More Time for Hobbies
Neil Haring – Irvin Bullbars
I’m enjoying life much more. Sales have grown by 30% and profits are up 60% this year following a similar result last year. Plus more time for hobbies.
Clear mindset and work life balance
Brett Anthony – Brett Anthony & Associates
The training and years of interaction we shared helped set me on the right path, shaping the mindset and framework I still rely on today. My business has never been better, and more importantly, I have found a great balance between work and home life, something I do not believe would have been possible without Rueben’s coaching and the invaluable lessons I learned during our time together. Highly recommend.
