Hammer & Grind : Built For Contractors

EP221: The Harsh Realities of Starting a Construction Business That No One Tells You


Listen Later

Everyone glamorizes business ownership until reality punches you in the face. Starting a construction company feels exciting at first. You’re optimistic, energized, and dreaming big. But then come the sleepless nights, last-minute call-outs, cash flow stress, broken tools, ungrateful clients and suddenly, it’s not so pretty anymore. What if someone told you the truth before you jumped in?


In this episode, Brad talks about:


  • Discussing the realities of starting and owning a construction business.
  • Overview of the five stages: uninformed optimism, informed pessimism, valley of despair, success, and fulfillment.
  • The romanticized view of business ownership vs. the harsh realities.
  • Personal anecdotes illustrating the struggles faced by contractors.
  • How financial stability can alleviate stress and improve business operations.
  • Introduction of the Profit Accelerator program for affordable business coaching.
  • Encouragement to seek help and remember that profits are essential.
