Today Andy is discussing various aspects of his company, from equipment upgrades like trading in excavators for newer models to the ongoing construction of a new facility to house operations. He emphasizes a philosophy of slow and financially responsible business growth, cautioning against the "10x" rapid expansion mentality prevalent online, which he believes often leads to financial instability and compromised quality. He also shares his personal insights on decision-making, including consulting his wife on large purchases and the importance of thorough employee training to maintain high service standards.
