We'll show you the ropes of contractor business management

Are you managing your business or is your business managing you?

CONTRACTOR BUSINESS MANAGEMENT.

Manage your business. Don't let it manage you.

Running a contractor business is a lot more than just the hands-on work. Many contractors are great at their trade but find the business side tricky or don't have the time to learn these essential skills. It's typical because managing finances, marketing and sales, and customer relationships aren't what you learn on the job.

But don't worry, you can learn contractor business management skills. Getting a firm grip on your business functions and your position means you can do what you're great at and have a solid business to back it up.

We're here to help! One of our business coaches can work with you to find out where you need to start in your construction business management journey.

MANAGING YOUR BUSINESS.

What you need to know

The term "contractor business management" may sound complicated to some people. You don't know where to begin. We're here to help you understand how to get started! First, here are three things you need to know when managing your business. Do you have these covered?

Your Business Numbers

As a contractor, keeping track of your business numbers is super important. That means understanding how much money you’re making and spending. It's about knowing how many prospects are interested in your services and how many jobs you’re closing. Sometimes, it can feel overwhelming to handle all these details, especially when you're busy with the day-to-day work. But, keeping an eye on these figures helps ensure your business is profitable.

How to Make Customers Happy

Happy customers are key to a successful business. It’s not just about doing a good job; it’s also about creating a good customer experience. This means good communication, finishing jobs on time, and making sure they’re happy with the work done. If your customers are happy, they’re more likely to come back and even recommend you to others. The challenge here is finding the time to keep up with customer needs while managing the day-to-day work.

How to Take Action

Knowing when and how to take action is vital. Whether it’s fixing a problem in a project or changing the way you do things to be more efficient, taking the right action at the right time can save you a lot of headaches. This might mean asking for help when you need it. It's easy to get caught up in the day-to-day work and put off these decisions, but taking action, mainly based on what your numbers and customers tell you, keeps your business moving forward.

EVALUATE YOUR BUSINESS.

How do you know if you need help?

As a business owner, stepping back and assessing your current situation is important. Asking yourself these questions can help you determine if you might benefit from business management coaching:

1. Am I struggling to keep up with the paperwork and finances of my business?
2. Do I find it hard to attract new customers or clients?
3. Do I often feel overwhelmed with managing all aspects of my business?
4. Is my business not making as much profit as I think it should?
5. Am I having trouble managing my time between on-site work and business tasks?
6. Do I feel stuck or unsure about how to grow my business?
7. Am I unsure about managing or hiring employees effectively?
8. Do I struggle with setting and achieving business goals?
9. Am I having difficulty balancing my work life and personal life?

If you answered 'yes' to any of these questions, it's time to get help. Remember, seeking coaching in business management is a smart move toward building a stronger and more profitable business. Check out the other services we offer!
