We'd love to ✨ spark ✨ discussion around top takeaways and your own experiences! Tuned into the episode? Share any questions or notable learnings down below 👇Do you return phone calls?
Looking back at trends I've noticed emerging in this post-COVID era of business, one that stands out to me is how frequently I hear potential clients share I am the only contractor that answered the phone/returned their call. People are far too often transparent regarding what a hard time they are having getting in touch with someone, let alone procuring a proposal to complete the work. Being located in SE Michigan USA, I have to ask, is this just something that is a problem in my local market, or is this everywhere and something you've experienced as well? Also, how do you handle following up with calls that can't be answered as they come in? How long is too long to circle back??Sweat equity
Building a pressure washing business with sweat equity. I've been leaving flyers and tear aways at local businesses. About to post some on local Facebook groups, is there any additional advice for adding customers but keeping it local and personal. I am hoping to build a locally recognized company... patriot Pressure Washing, PPW!How do you get more jobs in the same neighborhood?

Integration with SendJim
Hey everyone, I am wanting to automate our process for sending out a "Thank You Card" after specific milestones in our customer journey. For example, after doing an estimate, after the job is completed, and then start a sequence of Holiday post cards. Is "SendJim" the best way to do this, or is there another software that you use to do this?Customer Appreciation Dinner/Event?
Do you put on an annual customer appreciation dinner/event for your customers? Maybe a cookout, or a dinner at a nice restaurant? I am thinking of doing this to engage with clients and build even better relationships for the purpose of repeat work and referrals. If your company is doing this, or has done this please share your feedback.What is the biggest bottleneck for you as a blue collar trade owner?
Hey what's up if we've never met, my name is Jeff aka "The 360 Electrician" or @the360electrician on all social media. I coach over 1000 electrical contracting and blue collar businesses and have been a Jobber ambassador for well over 2 years now. I run 2 electrical contracting companies for the past 20 years. I'm located in California and Montana, so you better believe I have the experience to help anyone from 0 to 360. After talking to hundreds of you in my 8 week contractor playbook course, time and time again the topic of the "unknown" comes up. Most of you want to grow your business, you are booked solid, you know there is a shortage in the trades but the unknown of being the "boss" is what holding you back. I have 3 tips that may help you with this and I hope you will reach out if you have any questions or need a more comprehensive hiring system. Hire before you need to hire - Don't wait till it's too late. If you know you need help start looking NOW! Otherwise you hire out of desperation and trust me, that's a recipe for disaster. Make sure you aren't hiring to fill a spot, but rather to buy back your time. This is based on the best seller from Dan Martell "Buy Back Your Time". When you can step away from the tools, you change the game as far as your business goes. You can hire anyone qualified to cut the grass, or install an electrical panel, you can't just hire anyone to run your business and take care of the finances taxes etc. Freeing up your time is PRIORITY 1 so you can grow. Own the trains don't run the trains. Hire 24/7 always hire better, more qualified employees. Make sure you have a Win-Win / profit sharing system in place and you will keep employees longer and happier. Constantly losing good employees takes time to retrain and trust so don't lose good people, reward them to stay.
