Contractors Need Additional Resources To Smoothly Run Their Business

A lot of the money is made or lost on a job as shown in the profit and loss by job report can be traced back to how well construction change orders were handled. Customers remember and changes that reduce the amount they owe. Expect some memory loss about the additions that replaced them.

This Is The Tip - Of The Iceberg. Everything we publish in our blog posts, articles in other websites, and anything you can find on the web is nothing compared to what is available to you as our client. We show only the basic tools to open your mind to the possibilities that are available to you. The best finish carpentry tools in the hands of a golf professional without proper carpentry training will not produce anything near to what a skilled finish carpenter can. The same can be said about the best construction business consulting and accounting tools in the hands of a skilled finish carpenter. And I say that with respect and admiration for everyone in construction.

We Do Not Close Sales, We Open Relationships Hard Ball closing is not my style. You are added to our marketing workflow and receive a series of emails, but I do not call so often that you dread taking my call. We have solutions when you are ready.
