Builders are being approached from outside the industry more than ever. Coaches, planners, consultants, software reps. All of them want the same thing: access to your trust.
In this short solo episode, Az shares the background check The Good Builder runs on everyone who approaches the platform, and why builders should run it on everyone who approaches them.
Two searches. Five minutes. Before a dollar moves or a meeting is taken.
Search one is ASIC. Run their name through the banned and disqualified register. It covers disqualified company directors, not just finance. Run their company through ASIC's company search. Check the ABN. If they claim a licence of any kind, check it with whoever issues it.
Search two is the news. Their name and their company through the Google News tab. Bans, court judgments and tribunal findings get reported, and they do not disappear.
Plus the three questions to ask anyone who makes it into the room, and the reaction that tells you everything.
Run the check: ASIC banned and disqualified registers: asic.gov.au/online-services/search-asic-registers/banned-and-disqualified-registers ASIC register search (company search): asic.gov.au/online-services/search-asic-registers ABN Lookup: abr.business.gov.au Financial Advisers Register: moneysmart.gov.au/financial-advice/financial-advisers-register
A clean search is not a clearance, and none of this replaces professional advice. It is the five minutes that too many people skip.
