Every time there’s a problem, I float it out into the group chat — nine times out of ten, someone’s been through it.”

When Chris first started Rise Group, he was surrounded by mates who weren’t in the building game. That isolation, paired with the long days on the tools and late nights doing admin, meant he often felt like he was tackling everything alone.

Joining a BuildUp Crew changed that. Chris found himself surrounded by a network of builders who understood the pressure. Whether it was a tricky client issue, a subcontractor shortfall, or just a roadblock on-site, someone in the group had already been there — and was willing to help.

Through the monthly catch-ups and constant group support, Chris has been able to streamline his operations, reduce grunt work, and build better systems. The real benefit? More time to grow the business instead of just working in it.

Getting support from peers has given him the clarity to improve how his business runs — not by guessing, but by learning what actually works for others in the industry.

“It’s a small commitment once a month, but you get to pick the best parts of what 10 different builders are doing to improve your own process.”
