Jon MacNeil of MacNeil Construction, Clark Walker of Walkers Custom Frameworks, and Jason Guest of Guest Contracting Inc. and Tiletime join us all the way from Barrie to talk trucks, television and tools. The conversation starts off with whether they factor the rising gas prices into their quotes and soon transitions into Jon telling us about his experience being a part of a TV reno show. A throughline of this episode is the importance of communication, in dealing with both tradespeople and clients, and Jon tells us about his unique approach to showcasing his work, offering the good and the bad for consideration. The show wraps up with a long talk about mentorship and the next generation of tradespeople. Clark and Jon share stories about their fresh-out-of-college new recruits and we discuss the disillusionment that students face once they enter the jobsite, offering some good advice for young job-seekers along the way.
