Do You Train Your Team to Think or Just Work?
Every Monday, we hold a short training session with our team. We train on communication. leadership. & mindset. The reason being most tradespeople aren’t struggling because they can’t do the work. They’re struggling because they were never taught how to: Speak with clarity Handle conflict Lead a crew Represent the business professionally These tend to be the issues I see bottling up, either from our exit interviews or customer feed back or when things are misunderstood. Thats why I'm curious: Do you train soft skills with your crew?
Commission Based Pay?
Hey guys! Wondering if anyone here has experience with paying employees commission instead of hourly. How is that working for you guys? How do you have it set up to where you’re making the profit you need and the employee is happy and motivated to work hard? At what percentage do you pay? Thanks!
Subcontractor agreements
Happy Thanksgiving! I am subbing out a couple pressure washing jobs in the coming weeks and need some contracts in place with the subs. Would like for them to assume liability if using my equipment, be paid upon job completion and satisfaction, and agree to adhere to high quality standards. Anyone have something I can poach? Thank you!
