Occasionally, I will have days or weeks I just want to give up. I'm 9 years in. I have had a lot of ups and downs. I have learned hard lessons. I have experienced big wins and losses. And every once in a while I feel defeated. I try everything to grow and make my business better and then I find myself taking steps backwards and feeling exhausted over the thoughts of having to build something again. This could be team members leaving that I invested in, money I saved that I now have to spend on repairs, or unexpected losses, and the list goes on. We all have those days we feel like we just don't have what it takes to actually make it. What do you do? How do you keep moving forward? Share some hopeful stories. Share the worst stories and how you overcame. I don't want to hear how you just win all the time. Tell me the stuff that made you sleepless, the stuff that made you cry, and that stuff that you thought you just couldn't rise from. I need some encouragement that even when I think the worst is happening I can still overcome and keep moving forward and win!BrandenSewell10 days agoJobber Ambassador42Views3likes2CommentsWhen cash is tight, do you double down on marketing or pull back?

Please make some recommendations of your favorite leadership books. Currently, "Extreme Ownership" by Jocko Willink is my favorite. Do you have a favorite? My favorite take away from this book is this very simple truth, "There is no such thing as bad teams, only bad leaders."BrandenSewell22 days agoJobber Ambassador102Views2likes9CommentsMinutes & Opportunities: How do they matter?
At the start of my journey in the service industry, an experienced mentor imparted a crucial piece of advice: “The service industry is all about minutes & opportunities” Back then, I struggled to grasp its full meaning, being young and still relatively new to both the industry and the complexities of life. He elaborated that in the service business, each minute counts. If you don’t seize opportunities, someone else will. If you neglect to track your time, you’ll find yourself adrift. If efficiency escapes you, survival may not be in the cards. As he shared his wisdom, the pieces began to fit, though it took years and the launch of my own company for me to truly understand the depth of his words. Do you track the minutes in your company? Did you find any valuable information from doing so? Opportunities often present themselves more than once – but only a handful of times Embrace the chances that come your way. Quote every project (within your expertise) that crosses your desk. Pursue every lead and respond to calls promptly. There’s wisdom in the saying, “The early bird gets the worm.” Generally, being the first contractor to return a call and provide a quote significantly boosts your odds of landing that job. If you begin to decline quotes, you might find opportunities dwindling. Potential clients don’t appreciate wading through mediocre offerings, so make sure to deliver exactly what they want right from the start. What steps have you taken in your company to ensure that calls are answered and emails are responded to promptly? Do you quote everything within your scope of work that comes in?RichardM23 days agoContributor 353Views2likes3CommentsWhat Podcasts Are You Hooked On Right Now?
Let’s be honest—when you’re driving between jobs, grinding away solo, or just trying to unwind after a long day, podcasts are clutch. I’ve been on the hunt for something new lately, and figured I’d throw it out there—what podcasts are you listening to that actually fire you up, teach you something, or just help you zone out and reset? Could be trades-related, mindset, money, business, or even total random entertainment. I don’t care if it’s about tools or true crime—if it’s good, drop it. Always looking to stack the playlist. What’s in your rotation?ryaantuttle23 days agoJobber Ambassador673Views4likes18Comments
