Listen Later

Being human means you are going to go through life with strengths and weaknesses; it doesn’t matter who you are. You don’t have to let those weaknesses stop you from achieving success. Logan’s guest today is Shawn Van Dyke, a contractor business coach, author of 2 best-selling books, and an international keynote speaker for construction groups all over the world. Shawn started as an engineer, quickly moving into project management for large contractors where he was able to see all the trades work together. After years of helping manage projects, both others and his own, he began building scalable systems for other contractors to help build their businesses. Learn to recognize your strengths and weaknesses so you don’t bury your business when someone else can save it!

 

In this episode, we talk about…

  • Shawn’s background and how he made his way to where he is right now
  • Assessing your personality in order to figure out strengths and weaknesses
  • You have to be self-aware so you know when to hire someone else
  • How to identify if you are stuck in The Craftsmen Cycle
  • The word “no” can be the most profitable word in your business
  • Here’s the easiest way to break out of The Craftsmen Cycle
  • What makes The Craftsmen Cycle unique in the contracting industry
  • Everyone buys your marketing, not the product or service
  • Pre-qualifying to find the right clients and projects
  • Focus on the most valuable piece of content that you can provide
