3 SYSTEMS TO BUILD A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR YOUR CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS

MOST CONTRACTORS ARE NOT PROFITABLE

Are you really making a profit in your construction business?

Can you prove it?

Most of the time, when I ask that question, contractors struggle to answer.

They don’t know how to run a construction business successfully. They aren’t making a profit.

When I started my construction business, I struggled with understanding my numbers. I wasted so much time and energy trying to figure out where all my money was going. This drained my energy and took time away from the people that mattered most to me.

But you don’t have to struggle like I did.

 

WITHOUT A SOLID FOUNDATION, EVERYTHING EVENTUALLY FAILS

The problem is most construction business owners are constantly reacting to the day to day.

You’re putting out fires, running around town working for free, and producing estimates for customers who won’t hire you (or pay you what you’re worth). 

 

HOW TO RUN A CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS SUCCESSFULLY WITH 3 FOUNDATIONAL SYSTEMS

Every construction business owner needs three systems to make their business permanently profitable:

System 1: You need a weekly schedule, so you can focus your time on the important things. 

System 2: You need a sales framework that is repeatable and profitable. 

System 3: You need a way to face your finances and take responsibility for your numbers. 

Creating these systems within your business will help you make more money, stop worrying, and get your life back. 

That’s why I created Built to Start in the Built to Build Academy®.

 

BUILT TO START: BUILDING YOUR FOUNDATION

The Built to Start program teaches you, the exhausted construction business owner, how to run a construction business successfully by implementing the three systems mentioned above. 

 

TIME MANAGEMENT

You will achieve system 1 with the Effective Time Management Program. 

By the end of this program, you’ll have a weekly schedule that provides you freedom and delegates the right tasks to the right people. 

This new schedule is going to change your life. 

 

SELLING VALUE

You will achieve system 2 with the Paid for Planning course.

By the end of this course, you will have a repeatable, scalable script that convinces potential clients to pay you for estimates. 

You’ll actually increase your revenue by doing fewer jobs when you learn how to sell your value and your process.

PROFIT FIRST FOR CONTRACTORS

You will achieve system 3 with the Profit First for Contractors Training Program

By the end of this program, your finances will no longer be a mystery, and you’ll stop being an unpaid employee in a profitless business. 

You’ll become permanently profitable.
