Listen Later

What factors cause contractors to lose their businesses? We discuss some of the unique challenges restoration contractors face when working on insurance claims as well as some of the creative solutions that have helped our guest Brendon Rumsey grow by twenty percent annually.


In Episode 103 Bredon shared the interesting story of how he wandered into roofing repairs and working with insurance companies. That story involved a Craigslist meetup and a cup of McDonald's coffee. For this episode he discusses that despite significant revenue growth and being busy his company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
