It’s the proactive outbound sales call metric. It’s confusing to many, not just as a field on a spreadsheet, but as an activity.
Abe Degnan says this metric is valuable to all remodeling companies, and making those calls builds his own company’s sales pipeline. LISTEN NOW

One of the highlights of every Masterclass: Project Manager Intensive course that I facilitate is “focus time.” Each company present gets 20 minutes to receive feedback from everyone else in the room on one or two topics of their choice.

Markup and Profit
One of our goals has been to raise the bar for contractors. We want to see contractors build stronger businesses and in the process improve the reputation of our industry. Last week's newsletter highlighted one person's opinion of our industry and it wasn't pretty.

There’s no law—federal or state—that caps the number of hours a person can work (other than for minors). But if you are an employer, be sure to understand that working past 40 hours
triggers overtime rules for certain employees. Some of these rules have been around for years, while others are new. Here’s what you need to know for 2020 and beyond.

Small businesses are usually at a severe disadvantage when it comes to marketing budgets. Larger companies can spend many times over in a single campaign what small companies have to stretch for an entire year.
However, that doesn't mean that small businesses can't be competitive. On the contrary, the newest innovations in technology and marketing show that some very effective methods of marketing won't cost a small business a cent to capitalize on.

A breakup is often compared to a broken mirror: better to leave the pieces than risk more damage by trying to pick them up. But when it comes to business relationships, that kind of quick, clean split is often impossible and ill-advised. Contractors facing a split with a customer need to deal with the fallout professionally, addressing payments still due, materials ordered but not yet installed, and warranties yet to take effect.
