Construction Mentor Podcast

In this episode we sit down with Melvin

Martin the owner and operator of Martin Family Craftsmen. Martin shares his

story growing up in Mennonite culture (similar to Amish), and what it was like

leaving that culture while growing his thriving carpentry business. Martin also

shares what it is like to balance business with raising a family of 7 children,

who happen to be homeschooled. In fact, Martin incorporates the family business

into their education. Most importantly Martin shares the definition of his “purpose”,

how he serves that purpose, and what that means for his business. Make sure you

listen and learn!

Aaron also shares his story. Aaron truly

started at the bottom without experience and without education. When he

started, he was doing work that honestly… most people would not be willing to

do and may even find embarrassing. But he worked hard and is rising to the top!

What is the Construction Mentor Podcast?

This podcast covers everything there is to know about

construction jobs. Whether it be advice for a career as a construction manager

or construction entrepreneur, OR if you are looking for construction jobs that

pay well. Especially construction jobs that pay well without experience or jobs

that pay well.

Working in construction sounds dirty, it sounds back

breaking, but most people do not realize the variety of opportunities there are

in construction…all available without breaking your back! In today’s world of

construction, avoiding construction accidents by working safely and

intelligently is a top priority!

These are jobs that pay well don’t require a degree. Many of

these jobs make over 100k per year and include benefits i.e., full health

benefits, access to construction vehicles, free construction trucks.

There is no glass ceiling with a career in construction, the

sky is truly the limit! With the right mentorship could be jobs that make you a

millionaire. Regarding job availability and security… these are jobs that will

hire immediately, AND these jobs are not jobs that will be replaced with AI.

The construction industry does not only have physically

laborious jobs on site. The construction industry offers several different

career paths that can make a lot of money; careers in finance, careers in

technology, careers in software, careers in 3D modeling, and 3D design, careers

in architecture, careers in engineering, careers that use AI, and even careers

that operate HEAVY machinery remotely which is almost like a career playing

video games in construction!

Supply and demand is the cardinal rule of economics. The

truth is that skilled trades are dying. The skilled trades shortage is so dire

that all skilled trades are in demand, meaning all skilled trades pay well.

Now, some do pay better than others which is why you need to listen to

construction podcasts and skilled trades podcasts like this one! This is the

best way to find out which blue collar education is the best path for your

future, and could even lead you to becoming a blue collar millionaire.

The construction industry is one of the few, or maybe THE

ONLY industry were the education does not cost you any money. Not only do you

avoid a student loan, but you get paid to get an education. Considering the

current student loan crisis, that makes these careers even more appealing. On

this podcast we do explain student loans and compare them to starting salaries.

Even if you still wanted to pay for an education, the construction related

majors have the highest starting salaries!

Our guests include professionals who are experts in

carpentry work, electrical work, HVAC work, and beyond! Join the conversation

For the first time we have a guest join the podcast for a second episode. After our last episode, the Wealthy Iron Worker and I started discussing a recent tragedy in his life, and how important it is to address the mental health crisis in construction. Whether you've lost a loved one, experienced depression, struggled substance abuse, or faced financial crisis, this episode is for you. Even if you have not experienced those things... we all go through difficult times, sooner or later, and when you do, you must have a solid foundation to stand on to withstand the storm...
