Owner of successful Northampton construction firm launches coaching company after lockdown at-home videos

An award-winning Northampton entrepreneur who built a booming construction firm in under a decade has launched a new coaching business to help others to grow.

Parm Bhangal, of Bhangals Construction Consultants, has been providing support for construction industry professionals on Youtube during the coronavirus pandemic and decided to turn it into an actual business.

The company, also called Parm Bhangal, offers one-to-one business coaching sessions, monthly masterminds, workshops, courses and social media support groups.

“For years now, I have been helping contacts in the industry through offering advice, help and support where I can," he said.

"During the pandemic, I wanted to do more so I started recording a series of Youtube videos offering insights and opinions on how the industry was being impacted and offering practical support. These were well-received and I had lots of positive feedback.

“Having received business coaching myself in the past, I saw how I could use my experience, knowledge and passion for helping people in the construction industry and turn it into a business.”

Parm started Bhangals Construction Consultants in 2010 at the age of 22 and now has offices in the town and London, hitting an annual turnover of £1 million in 2019.

The firm works with around 3,000 clients, has been involved with £250m worth of construction projects and has completed £900m worth of estimates.

Parm has also launched other businesses in the property and construction industry – estimating firm My Build Estimate and a property management company called Azadi Properties.

Last year, at the height of the pandemic, he launched Amico Design Limited, an architectural design and planning consultancy.

Parm is specifically looking to help owners of construction businesses, contractors and property developers to grow.

“It’s not enough for construction firm bosses to simply know how to run their company,” he added.

“They also need to know how to get more work and take advantage of the contracts and opportunities that are out there.

“Anyone who is involved in the industry knows that profits are their livelihood. They can’t afford to be losing money due to an ineffective business model.

"This is where I can support them by helping them set clear goals and develop efficient strategies to achieve them.”
