Running a niche trade business isn’t always easy, but for Dan Boscolo from Timeless Staircases, it’s been a journey of growth, challenges, and rediscovering what truly matters. In this episode, Dan shares his story—from leaving school at 15 to becoming an apprentice, then eventually running his own stair-building business.

Like many tradies, Dan had to navigate the ups and downs of business ownership, including cash flow struggles, managing a team, and figuring out how to scale without burning out. He opens up about the moment he realised success wasn’t just about money or business growth, but about finding balance—staying hands-on with the craft he loves while also making time for family and personal passions (like his lifelong love for skateboarding).

One of the biggest lessons he shares is the importance of having a support network. He credits the Tradiepreneur community for helping him work through financial challenges and make better business decisions.
