What are the best business coaching programs for home service business owners?
Does anyone have a recommendation for a residential construction/remodeling coaching program with systems, daily operations, hiring etc? Looking for a program that you have had personal success with. Thank you in advance!Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
I heard this quote recently and wanted to share with everyone in the hope it has the same effect on their mindset as it did on me. I have been thinking about this nonstop since it landed on me. It changed my entire way of thinking about my day to day work. I think this saying is so important to keep in mind everyday when you are running a business. Rushing and cramming is never going to make you faster or more efficient in the long run. Its only going to slow you down and cause you to fumble and fall. Sure there are times when we need to get things done quickly but that should never take away from quality of work and completing things that need doing. Slow down and smooth things out, this will only increase your speed and efficiency.
I Just Got my First Commercial Client
I started off seriously reaching out 2 weeks ago for my cleaning business. After designing my flyers and card, I started making the calls and sharing flyers at show homes, construction sites and other business. I walked in into a clinic and as we got talking, I focused on what I could over pointing out areas I could improve in cleaning. I was given a chance to do a one time deep clean and I nailed it. Contract for subsequent cleaning signed for a year. Very excited!!!!What's a creative or out-of-the box way you improved your business while short on cash?

The Best Projects and Programs begin with a Seed of Love and Support
Let’s start a discussion. What would happen if communities, businesses, contractors, creatives, and service providers came together to help people who are trying to build something meaningful, but simply don’t have the resources to get there alone? Not handouts. Not pity. Real opportunities. People with good hearts. People pursuing a dream. People rebuilding after setbacks. People trying to launch businesses that could one day support their families and contribute back into their communities. As a media production company, NWPhotoVideo is preparing community-focused documentary and storytelling projects designed to highlight those individuals and help connect them with real support. That support could mean mentorship, repairs, services, sponsorships, business assistance, transportation, food support, hair and makeup, vehicle repairs, or simply giving someone visibility and encouragement when the world has overlooked them. We are willing to volunteer much of our labor to help make these stories happen, while working to secure sponsorships that help cover the heavy production costs behind professional media work. The bigger question is this: Who would actually be willing to step in and help? Because I believe there are still a lot of good people out there. We’ve just become disconnected from one another. Most people don’t even know their neighbors anymore. It’s time to change that.Is Your Home Improvement Business Making a Difference?
As home improvement professionals, we do more than just repair or upgrade homes—we get an opportunity to shape the communities we work in. Every job, every project, and every decision is a chance to make a difference. Hiring local workers? Partnering with local suppliers? Volunteering your time and skills for community projects? That’s how you turn a business into a force for good. Building a well-run business creates stability, fosters trust, and sets an example for the entire community. When your business operates with integrity and efficiency, it inspires pride, strengthens local connections, and drives positive change beyond the bottom line. So, here’s the question: How are you using your business to create meaningful change in your community?
A recent achievement I'm very proud of is the growth of my business.
Since we started, we've had the opportunity to serve hundreds of families and offices in Georgia, and we've recently continued expanding into new communities. I'm also incredibly proud to be able to create job opportunities for Latina immigrant women and demonstrate that with hard work, discipline, and passion, growth is possible. 💚✨
