Tradies could win 22 hours back from work plus $7K to spend on a proper break by answering one question

If you’ve ever finished a full day on-site only to spend your night chasing invoices, replying to clients or sorting out paperwork you forgot existed, you’re apparently very much not alone.

Because according to Thryv, tradies are spending an average of 22 hours a week doing admin. Which is basically an entire extra workday disappearing into quoting jobs, scheduling and digging through text messages trying to figure out who still owes you money.

And honestly, most people can probably think of about 400 better ways to spend that time.

Which is exactly the point of Better Things To Do, a new promo from Thryv that’s giving tradies the chance to win 22 paid hours back, plus $7K to spend on whatever they’d rather be doing instead.

Whether that’s a fishing trip, golf weekend, holiday or just disappearing off-grid for a couple of days, the whole campaign is built around one pretty relatable thought — admin is eating up way too much time.

To enter, tradies just need to answer one question in 22 words or less, what would you do with an extra 22 hours up your sleeve? The more creative or funny the answer, the better.

There are five prizes up for grabs, with each winner scoring 22 paid hours plus spending money to turn their idea into an actual reality.

Thryv knows all about how much time can get swallowed up by the admin side of running a small business, which is why it’s built to help tradies keep everything in one place — from quotes and invoicing to bookings, payments and customer messages.

Instead of juggling spreadsheets, texts and late-night paperwork, it’s designed to pull it all together so jobs can be managed without things slipping through the cracks or eating into the day.

That means less time stuck chasing invoices or trying to remember who said what, and more time actually on the tools or doing literally anything else.

And for anyone who’s ever finished a full day’s work only to spend the night buried paperwork, that probably sounds like a pretty solid deal.

Especially when you realise 22 hours is enough time to squeeze in a weekend away, multiple rounds of golf, an alarming amount of fishing or finally getting through the group chat plans that never happen.
