157. Look Beyond The Bottom Line with Chris Brien


Listen Later

I am excited to have one of my favorite returning guests back on the show, my husband Chris Brien! If you’ve enjoyed our episodes together in the past, you’re going to love this one and the ones to come! As partners of our evolving construction company Brien Contracting, we think sharing lessons and insights we’ve learned along the way could be beneficial for growing business owners, and even those thinking about going into business with their spouse. Today we will be discussing the strategy of any scale service based businesses thinking beyond the bottom line in certain aspects of their business, returning client relationships and bringing it back to basics so you can focus on what you do best!


Main Takeaways of This Episode:

[2:00] - What does ‘looking beyond the bottom line’ mean to us in our business?

[5:10] - What you should consider before “nickel and diming” your client for minor things that result in you losing trust or credibility.

[10:20] - Why over-delivering or taking the cost of a mistake from someone else might be worth it in the long run, and what “adding value” can look like for your customer. 

[14:06] - There is a balance of grace and remembering you’re running a business when asking for payment. 

[20:10] - Do’s and Don’ts when it comes to forming strong, long lasting client or other service based business relationships.
