Professional Builders Secrets

Listen Later

In episode 23 of the Professional Builders Secrets podcast, our host, Bosco Anthony is joined by Co-founders of the Association of Professional Builders Russ Stephens and Sky Stephens, along with APB’s Head Coach, Andy Skarda. Throughout this episode, the trio reveal how builders can manage their most valuable resource: Time.


During this episode, Russ, Sky and Andy share some of the tips and secrets behind buying more time as a builder, the form of hiring support and employees, so you can get the most out of your day. The trio share how builders can “beat the clock.”


As a builder, are you constantly solving everyone else's problems and putting out fires, rather than working on the activities that will actually grow your building company? By empowering your team and bringing on strong talent, you are able to spend more time ON the business rather than in it.


Throughout episode 23, Russ, Sky and Andy also uncover how builders can become better time managers, technology and software that can save you time, the #1 thing you need if you want to make the most of your time, why you need to start weighing up opportunity cost and SO much more.


Listen to the full episode as Russ, Sky and Andy debunk the time management myths for builders.
