Podcast: Fatigue and interview with Erika Taylor
Remodeling Mastery
Given enough time, almost anything can lead to fatigue. Mark Richardson says the environment we are in right now has also created this for many remodeling companies. You’re not taking vacations, you’re not taking time outs–this concept of “living at work” resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic has changed what a normal workweek should be. “Regardless of how many hours you’re putting in, there’s a level of fatigue and weight that not only you are experiencing, but also by others,” says Mark.

Remodeling
The challenges of leading a company are important even when navigating through seemingly calm waters. In the current business environment, they are critical. To say that these are “challenging times” is rather cliched at this point. But, whether it is the current economic conditions, the pandemic, local market changes or change in your own business, leaders today are facing some of the steepest challenges of their entire careers.

To Keep Business in the Black, Take Control of Cash Flow
Remodeling
If your business has unhealthy cash flow, you constantly need to delay payments—antagonizing your subs and suppliers—and you typically end up paying interest on cash (by drawing on your line of credit or, far worse, your credit card). On the other hand, a healthy cash flow means you can keep up with your bills and stay on good terms with your subs and suppliers, as well as take advantage of date-driven discounts.

Backlinks: Another Core Reason Why Your Contractor Website Isn't Ranking
Remodeling
Not too long ago, I wrote an article titled "Five Reasons Why Your Website Doesn't Generate Leads." In it, I talked about some of the major mistakes that I see builders and other contracting professionals make when building their websites. Things like a lack of visibility, unprofessional or nonexistent portfolio photos, missing calls to action, and more all play a far more important role in a website's success than most people realize.

Economic Outlook: 'The Implications of These Diverging Economies'
Remodeling
In this month’s COVID-19 Update webinar, Ali Wolf, chief economist at Zonda, notes three core components of the recovery that have surprised her: how uneven the economic recovery is, how even the housing recovery is, and the tremendous impact of $3 trillion in stimulus money. With housing on the upper end of the “K-shape,” which reflects the uneven state of recovery, Wolf cautions not to forget that “we, in housing, are benefiting from the fact that a lot of higher-income, higher-skilled individuals are still at work.
