We’ve worked with thousands of small business owners for 25 years, and specifically residential contractors through the pandemic recession and hot housing market. We’ve learned the hard way how to smooth out the boom and bust cycles, perfecting specific techniques and processes that keep businesses thriving across cycles. We all know that pandemic shutdowns, working from home, accumulated savings and massive relocations led to a boom in both home remodeling, new homes and vacation homes.
The question is: are you ready for the next dip? Have you hardened your business with adequate profit margins and cash reserves to survive the next one?
Aspire has compiled our years of collective knowledge into this report.
Our goal is to make sure you remain steady and consistent no matter what economic cycle we’re in – with a predictable business.
Most contractors confused more revenue with more profit. Sure, we’re interested in helping you make more money. But really, isn’t it about keeping more of the money you’ve earned?
That’s where most residential contractors go wrong. In fact, the entire construction industry tends to inflate average profitability due to not calculating gross and net profits accurately. Aspire is tough on getting to the real numbers – job by job. Our methods are proven, proprietary and pay off for our clients.
We will show you how to keep at least twice as much profit from every revenue dollar your remodeling business brings in.
Once you change your mindset about your true value and worth and can communicate effectively with customers, your transformation begins. No, it is not about mark-ups or price hikes. It’s about becoming a profit-margin business. By doing so, Aspire can increase your bottom-line by 33-50%
Sounds impossible, right? We’re serious. Find out how.
At Aspire, we see contractors take bad jobs when we start building your customized financial analysis. It’s especially true for remodelers that focus revenue rather than profit margins. And since most people don’t know the difference between those two things, many general contractors have no idea they’ve taken a loser job until it’s too late. In fact, you start working just to minimize the loss or break even. That’s just wrong!
Bad jobs happen most commonly when contractors are focused on winning a bid, competing on price, or word-of-mouth marketing.
This report sheds light on how you can attract and land more profitable jobs – and avoid the traps of taking on bad ones.
Home builders and remodelers are doers by nature and by profession. That’s what we love about you. By trade and by training, contractors execute extremely well against a clear and complete set of plans. (Okay, only kidding about the clear and complete part, but plans nonetheless!)
That’s the rub. What made you successful building homes is not what makes you successful building a business. Homebuilding strategy skews toward execution. The vision of the “dream kitchen or bathroom” is more under the control of the homeowner than than the builder.
So who is driving your business and financial strategy? Do you even have one. What are your goals? How much profit? By when? And when are you going to retire? Will you have enough to retire comfortably?
This report is designed to help contractors understand and implement business strategies that will get them all the way to their business goals. It helps you understand the difference between “strategy” (the what) and “tactics” (the how).
Contractors too often try to achieve business goals by a “try this, try that” approach. That’s a dangerous road when it comes to strategy – it costs money and time that you don’t have. A strategy is a clear vision of what summit you’re going to climb, how you will get there, how long it will take you and measurable steps along the way. All without killing yourself (literally and figuratively).
Aspire’s favorite thing is to teach residential contractors strategy. It will make you as powerful a business operator as you are a skilled builder.
