The Builders Ladder: Business Growth Strategies for Residential Construction Businesses

Epi 148: Projects Finishing Ahead of Schedule: The Hiring Framework That 10X'd This Texas Builder


Listen Later

After 10 months as a one-man bathroom renovation business, Rob was trapped. When you're responsible for everything, you can't take time away - and when you do, you're still on the phone handling emergencies.

Join Owen Chambers and coach Carla as they break down how Rob transformed his Texas renovation business using TPB's hiring framework. Discover why his previous helper didn't work out, how the right job ad attracted A-plus talent instead of 200 mediocre applicants, and the specific strategies that let him take not one but two holidays while his business ran perfectly without him.

Learn the secret filtering techniques that separate world-class candidates from time-wasters, why your job ad needs to market the opportunity (not just list requirements), and how Rob's systematic approach to Google reviews is driving organic leads in his local market.
