In this episode of the Elite Business Advice Podcast, we kick off the new Back to Basics Series, designed to help painting contractors refocus on the fundamentals that truly move the needle in 2026. One of the biggest challenges we see when coaching business owners isn’t a lack of knowledge—it’s a lack of organization and follow-through. Great ideas and systems don’t matter if nothing actually gets done.

This episode breaks down how to build a simple, repeatable to-do system that works for both your personal life and your business, how to establish clear rhythms and frequencies for important tasks like job costing, cash flow management, and goal reviews, and how to break large projects into manageable action steps to avoid overwhelm.
