painting contractor business coach

 

I find myself solving problems every day, at work and at home.  It’s what us contractors do, solve problems, check things off our list and do it all again tomorrow.  Sometimes these problems mesh together becoming an even larger distraction from our more important items we need to get done.

Here is an simple way to get some time back!

Record everything you do every day and put a time to it.

  1. Drive to Hardware store to get screws for a job – 30 minutes.
  2. Pickup paint at the store to deliver to a job site – 1 hour.
  3. Bid a job that is an 45 min drive from your office – 2 hours.

Ask yourself:

Should I be doing these things?

How much did “Today”cost me?

Which tasks should I be delegating or outsourcing?

Formula: Gross yearly income/Total hours worked in a year = Cost per hour worked.

If you make $100,000/2500 hours (50 hours a week) = $40 per hour.

Those screws just cost you $2 plus $20 = $22.  How much would it cost to ship those to your shop? $5?

This exercise only takes 1 day to do, and it’s an eye opener!

About the Author

As a newly single father of two from MI, he struggled to start over as a paint contractor in FL, going door to door. His situation was so bad, even the IRS had mercy on him.

 Feeling completely hopeless, he remembered the story of King Solomon praying for wisdom. Could it be so easy? 

He felt he had absolutely nothing to lose. So, as a bankrupt, divorced, high school dropout, single father of 2 young kids, now living 1250 miles away from all friends and family, started to pray for wisdom.
 And while he continues to wait for the wisdom to arrive, what did come was an insatiable desire to learn and read books… 
Thanks to God for giving him the burning passion to read books, and attend seminars, (oh and winning the wife lottery) he not only cracks the success code and overcomes the struggle, but also streamlines his painting business in less than 3 years, published a how to book, then sold the company. Now he leads a business coaching company for painting contractors so he can help other businesses, like yours, to do the same. Hear more... http://www.DYBCoach.com/01 Or JoinDYB.com
