It wasn't like, oh yeah, well, if I sell a kitchen for 200 grand, I need to sell it at 250 grand.
It's like, no, I have to find a way to execute that kitchen faster with reasonable results.
And I can't spend the amount of hours that it would require of a $250,000 kitchen.
So I had to look in the mirror and understand that my ego was preventing me from being profitable.
yeah just track your costs on a daily basis right for me and like i i have a ton of people who call me and they'll hop on a consulting call with me and it's like smaller contractors and how do you operate and what's your business look like and what's your model look like and the biggest thing for me is create a very very comprehensive budget
create a very comprehensive scope and a comprehensive schedule before you do a job.
And this is why I say I could do fixed costs now that I understand how to do this.
And then when you go to start that job, track your costs every single day, track the amount of time that you're putting into each one of those tasks and make sure that if you only allocated four days for drywall, that you don't spend more than four days on drywall.
Right.
but everyone is doing too much work and trying to grow more and they think that more revenue is going to make them more money and they're not realizing that they're putting six days worth of time into it and it's it's costing them money so you either need to charge more you need to get a different team or you need to build efficiencies within your process that allow you to hit those numbers so it's as simple as creating
create that roadmap and that foundation and then follow it when you go to do the job.
And yeah, you can't be like, well, I only said two days.
I'm just going to slap this paint up.
It's going to look like shit.
No, if you just, if you, if there was an egregious omission on your part, as far as budget, learn from it and then make it up somewhere else on the job, like build efficiencies elsewhere on the job.
So it's not costing you money.
And to me, that's the simplest thing.
Just have the work and the resources that you put in place match the budget that you developed.
And if there's things that you have to do for that job that are outside of your scope, your budget, your schedule, it's a change order.
To me, it's as simple as it can get, but people cannot slow down for long enough to realize that they're putting work into place that's not equitable for them or their business.
