Know Your Numbers Protect Your Margin with Shawn Van Dyke

10 Dec 2025

Description

Reece digs in with construction business coach and Profit First for Contractors author Shawn Van Dyke to show why clean job costs matter more than chasing big revenue. They walk through how Shawn helped a millwork company find its profit sweet spot, track every hour of labor, and stop guessing on bids. You will hear simple ways to set up cost codes, push data capture to the field, and pay yourself properly for the risk you take. If this helps, share it with a builder friend who is tired of feeling in the dark about their numbers.https://shawnvandyke.comhttps://info.datamule.agencyShow Notes:00:50 Introduction to Shawn05:17 From DMs To Book Deal08:09 Finding The Sweet Spot17:28 Finally Knowing Your Numbers21:45 Cost Codes Everywhere Everyday28:37 Scale Versus Sweet Spot35:25 Build A Simple Menu40:22 Are You Paid Enough47:08 Professionals Own The Paperwork52:01 Where To Find ShawnFind Our Hosts: Reece BarnesMatt Calvano Podcast Produced By:Motif Media
