    • Ep 015: Choose The Right Projects

      Trae’s father started, grew and sold a company called Carolina Restoration & Construction. Trae worked for him in the summer times and holidays during high school and college. He learned a lot about the industry in those days and had the added bonus of hearing what the field workers were concerned about and then got the admin side of it too. 

       

      In 2010, his father told him, he was selling the company he had worked at for so long as 2008 had hurt everyone and he was going to retire. For nearly two years, Trae would end up doing different jobs like teaching golf, selling life insurance and other weird stuff. None of which he had a real passion for. So, he set his sites on starting his own restoration company called Southern Restoration & Construction.

       

      Listen to this informative Business Aspirin episode with Trae Ely about choosing the right projects.


      Here is what to expect on this week’s show:

      • Trae and Clint discuss the importance of picking the right projects.
      • Trae and Clint talk about growing your company and in order to grow your company you need to be ‘the guy.’
      • Trae explains that the restoration industry is not tied to the economy, but can still ‘roller-coaster’ so you need to be prepared.
