About The Founder

Hi, I'm Matt

Helping Brisbane and Moreton Bay trade businesses get found, get chosen and grow.

Matt Barrell is the founder of Barrell Consulting and the former owner of a lawn mower sales and repair business in north-west Brisbane. That real world experience gave him firsthand insight into the challenges of running and marketing a local trade-focused business.

Today, Matt helps trade and service businesses improve their websites, Google visibility and lead generation through practical, straightforward marketing systems that deliver more calls, more quotes and more jobs.

What I see tradies struggle with
From The Founder

What I see tradies struggle with

Good trade businesses can still lose work because Google details are incomplete, the website does not make the next step obvious or missed calls and quotes are not followed up consistently.

Those are practical business problems. The solution should be explained in the same practical language.

Incomplete Google details
Unclear next step on site
Missed calls, no follow-up
Why It Matters
One overlooked detail is often enough to lose the job.

A missed call is rarely called back — the customer just moves on.

A confusing website makes people look for someone easier to deal with.

Outdated Google info quietly erodes trust before you even speak.

How We Work

A small business that stays accountable
