Being Intentional with Your Time & Staying Organized with Rick Hubbard of SUNDEK of Austin
- 00:43 – Time Management
“With time management, I can control my time. I feel I’m a lot more productive, and I feel there’s a lot less stress.” - 04:22 – Pricing Jobs
“I can see the job and forecast it before we start it. I know what labor is required, and with pictures, I can see where the extra labor is going to be. Using a spreadsheet, I can plug in the square footage and come up with material costs.” - 06:50 – The Value of Photos
“When I started, we had a polaroid camera. Now, the guys can be on a job, put a picture on Company Cam, and call in and ask questions about it. What a difference-maker. It saves time and makes money.” - 10:16 – Material Inventory
“We walk the warehouse once to twice a week and verify our minimum and maximum materials are in there. We forecast out about six weeks out to make sure we have the materials when we need them.” - 13:24 – Employee Longevity
“They’re good to us and we’re good to them. It’s a work family.” - 15:33 – Cost of Goods Sold
“Before the job starts, we’re analyzing the job. As the job’s going, we’re analyzing it. We watch our money. We have a budget, and we want to make a certain amount of profit. You have to be on top of it.” - 17:05 – Approaching the “Money-Makers”
“Number one is Classic Texture. Number two is an upgrade. You can do a scoreline or an aggregate. When you go to level three, that’s when we’re doing multi-colors or templates or Roman slate.” - 20:04 – It’s All About the People
“I believe in the FORD method when you meet somebody. It’s about Family, Occupation, Recreation, and Dreams. When you bring that into the conversation, you’ll get them talking and they’re at ease. You’ll learn a lot more about them at that point.” - 23:56 – Then Versus Now
“I don’t get as stressed out as I used to and worry about the little stuff as much. I know it’ll take care of itself and sometimes it just needs some nudging to get there.”
