Watch or listen and I'll show you how to use The Boring Success Formula™ to eliminate the chaos and frustration that comes with growing your construction business.

You never want to answer the “start” question before you have all the details.

Most construction business owners aren’t charging enough for their work, which limits their profits and their ability to grow.

Without profits you will either go out of business, or you’ll stay afloat by not paying yourself what you should.

Both of these situations can be avoided by focusing on profit - what causes it and how to use it when you have it.

Listen to make the #1 mindset shift all profitable construction business owners make.

Most construction business owners make the mistake of thinking they have to be THE expert in the business to grow the business.

Making this mistake creates stress and frustration for you because you will spend all your time answering questions and reacting to day-to-day fires.

As the business owner, your main job is to find and hire experts so you can focus on your most important task: Growing your business.

You can do that when you hire above "the Line."

Listen to see what I mean.

Most construction business owners struggle finding enough time to get everything done. You spend too much time reacting to the day-to-day tasks, which causes inefficiencies, stress, and costs you money.

Stephen R. Covey wrote, “The key is not to prioritize what’s on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities.”

That’s what Effective Time Management really is...it’s the system for Time Prioritization.

Listen and I’ll show you the number one way you can start effectively managing your time today.

When you create a system to attract, prequalify, and indoctrinate your next best employee, you’ll spend less time responding to applicants and more time interviewing people who are the right fit for your construction business.
