Ever wonder how to transition from a construction laborer to a general contractor? Join us on Contractor Cuts, where we pull back the curtain on the financial and mental shifts required to leap from laborer to general contractor. We crack open the financial nut, breaking down the allocation of job site earnings towards labor, materials, and profit, and discuss the role job scale plays in setting profit percentages. We also highlight the importance of strategic planning and a forward-thinking mindset for achieving long-term growth.

Transitioning from laborer to general contractor isn't just about managing a budget; it's about managing relationships too. We chart the different levels of contracting, discussing the financial and communication responsibilities at each stage. As you step into project management, you'll realize the critical role of customer service, resource efficiency, and clear communication. These skills don't just help you secure jobs; they enable you to execute them effectively.

But here comes the tricky part: shifting your mindset from laborer to general contractor. It's not simply about doing the work; it's about investing in your business for future stability, prioritizing customer service, and implementing effective systems to ensure tasks are completed accurately and on time. We'll introduce you to tools like ProServe360 software that can provide clarity and accountability to your team. So, gear up for an illuminating journey as you step into the shoes of a general contractor and learn the ropes of managing your own business. Let's get started!
