This Podcast Is Episode Number 0149 And It Will Be About Streamlining Your Contracting Company With Our Free Checklist

You are an intelligent Contractor which means you know how to operate your construction company and the biggest barrier to your success is getting your employees to do what you want them to do, when you want them to do it, and do it the way you know works best.

Contractors who are Process Dependent Vs. People Dependent always makes more money and enjoys more freedom and peace of mind over Construction Company owners who are in constant chaos making the same decisions over and over.

The difference between Success and Failure is simple and easy. Change a few simple things in your thinking and what you will tolerate and you can change your construction company and make dramatic improvements in your cash flow, profitability and the amount of freedom and enjoyment you will get out of your life.

Success - Is a few simple disciplines practiced every day!

Failure - Is a few simple errors repeated every day!

The first step to moving your construction company from a People-Dependent-Chaotic-Neurotic-Maddening-Disorganized-Money-Losing-Life-Sucking-Money-Pit to a Process-Dependent-Money-Machine is developing simple checklists and expanding them over the course of time.

Do you own and operate a small construction company? Have you ever wondered if having a consultant with construction expertise to call on and ask questions would help you? Are you concerned you cannot afford one?

When my partner, Sharie DeHart and I, were running construction and plumbing service and repair businesses beginning in the early 1970's until 2000 we felt we did not need to pay anybody to tell us what to do because we knew exactly what to do.

After several very painful and extremely costly mistakes we found the adage "Experience Is The Best Teacher...And The Most Expensive" to be oh so true!
We found ourselves, our family, employees and suppliers were all riding on our Roller Coaster of Surprises, some good, some bad. On occasion we would wake up screaming bloody murder only to discover it was the middle of the afternoon and we were not asleep!

After a while we decided perhaps there was truth in the adage "If you think education is expensive, try ignorance". I will admit I was a bit arrogant thinking since I was raised in a family of contractors that I knew a lot about construction.

In fact I knew quite a bit about what Michael Gerber calls "Working In The Business But Not On The Business"

At that point in the late 1970's we decided to move to The Merry-Go-Round of a business with a Strategic Plan that could grow-up and provide us with a more predictable result

Books, Tapes, Seminars and Guru's

For the next several years we added a combined total of over 4,000 books, cassette tapes, VHS video tapes, workbooks, and several hundred handouts from every How-To-Do-It guru we could find.
And we were still not getting anywhere fast because the seminars are like energy drinks, they pump you up and after a week or two in the real world we were beaten down again. It was a roller coaster again.

Be, Do, Have

In time we found several consultants and professionals some good, some bad, some nightmares and one in particular kept repeating Be, Do, Have. Be the person, Do the work, Have the results.

In life we produce reasons or results and, reasons don’t count. Having experienced success and failure a number of times this message slowly sinked into my head.

We discovered that success came fast and easy when we engage the services of mentors that are skilled in construction because they were where we wanted to be.

We even hired a few consultants that were worthless because they had no construction experience and could only teach what they had learned in university or by hanging around hyped up seminar presenters selling Get-Rich-Quick-Schemes to rooms full of desperate people.

Tips To Find The Right Contractor Profit And Growth Consultant:

  1. Make sure they have hands on experience in your profession. Preferably a Journeyman License, Certifications or some kind of external proof of their experience.
  2. Though the dogs (people who think you should tough it out and go it alone) may bark the caravan (long line of successful people with consultants on their team) moves on.
  3. Choose wisely the six people you spend the most of your time with as leveling is always occurring. 
  4. Does your consulting sessions take place in a safe nurturing environment?
  5. Is what you think, believe or feel is important the topic of conversation?
  6. Are you judged or criticized for anything you say or do?
  7. Is your consultant brainstorming with you on a management to management level about your issues and concerns?
  8. Does your consultant suggest working with a Board of Advisors?
  9. Do you feel you can do a brain dump in a safe nurturing environment?
  10. Are your specific problems and/or issues being addressed?
