About this audiobook
Two firms do the same work, in the same town, at the same prices. Ten years later one owner sells up a millionaire, and the other is still chasing invoices on a Friday night. The difference is not effort, and it is not luck. It is knowledge.
Mo El Hadri started with the tools in his hands and built a maintenance business that has delivered over eight thousand jobs across the UK. The Edge is the knowledge that took him from one side of that line to the other, in plain words.
Inside: why growing businesses die of success, the honest arithmetic of a million pounds, the payment law that can force a client to pay your application in full, where the billions in social housing and warm homes money are going, how to win work without being the cheapest, and how to find the bottleneck in your own business.
Made to be listened to. Every chapter stands alone: one idea, one mechanism, one thing you can do tomorrow.
