Unique Successful Contractors Operate In Reverse To Poor Contractors

Successful Contractors Do The Exact Opposite Of Poor Contractors

The First Place to start is to understand how the 80/20 Rule applies to your construction company. It simply states that the top 20% of your clients generate 80% of your profit and the bottom 80% of your customers generate only 20% of your construction company profits.

It Stands To Reason if you want to more cash flow and profits and more freedom in your life you would copy the operations of highly successful and very profitable contractors. They outsource as much as possible especially their Contractor Bookkeeping Services Needs so they can focus on finding and satisfying the needs of high-value, high-profit clients and leave the price shoppers, tire kickers, carpet pilots and web-surfers to poor contractors who prefer to work hard rather than smart, do everything themselves and end up wasting their lives in pain and misery.

Relationships can make you or break you; financially, professionally and personally. Stephen R. Covey has written and spoken extensively on this subject and most notably in his book The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People.

The idea is when you first meet someone you automatically credit that person with a small amount of emotional trust and they do the same for you. In due time you both make deposits and withdrawals into and out of each other's emotional bank account. The key is to make far and away many more deposits than withdrawals and keep the withdrawals to a minimum.

Unique Bad Bookkeeper Traits Kill Contractor Profits

Posted by Randal DeHart on Fri, Aug 28, 2015

Bad Bookkeepers Have 38 Traits In Common

It is important to understand the difference between Professional Bookkeepers, Regular Bookkeepers and Bad Bookkeepers.

  • Regular Bookkeepers learned most if not everything they know about bookkeeping by experience and by letting you pay for their education in the form of excess taxes, fines, penalties, un-invoiced work, overpaying bills and late fees. It is painful for them and you. They have good intentions and do not want to cause contractors any grief and they are sincere with their apologies. Of the thousands of Regular Bookkeepers I have met they all have good hearts and really do mean well.
  • Bad Bookkeepers also learned most if not everything they know about bookkeeping by experience and by letting you pay for their education in the form of excess taxes, fines, penalties, un-invoiced work, overpaying bills and late fees. It is painful for you but not for them. They have bad intentions and will cause contractors as much grief as possible and are quick to blame everyone else when something goes wrong. Of the dozens of Bad Bookkeepers I have met they all have a bad opinion of contractors and business in general.
