5 Lessons I Learned from Scaling a Construction Business

Scaling a construction business can be a daunting task, but it's also incredibly rewarding. As discussed in a recent podcast episode, separating roles and responsibilities, defining core values, and investing in effective systems can make all the difference. Here are five lessons I learned from the conversation:

Take time to explore and try new things. Christopher Brement left his family's construction business to explore other opportunities, but eventually returned with a fresh perspective. Don't be afraid to take a break and try something new, as it can bring valuable insights and inspiration.

Hire dedicated professionals for specific tasks. Specialization is key in the construction industry, and hiring experts for each role can improve efficiency and quality. Don't try to do everything yourself.

Define core values and hire based on them. Core values can guide decision-making and lead to a strong company culture. Hire and fire based on these values, and customers will see them in action through your actions and problem-solving skills.

Invest in effective systems and processes. Programs like EOS or Pinnacle can improve your business and lean into the future. Continually improve your processes to ensure quality craftsmanship and a lasting impression on homeowners.

Embrace coaching and feedback. Working with a coach like Steven, as Christopher Brement does, can bring valuable insights and challenges. Don't be afraid to disrupt existing plans and seek feedback from trusted sources.

Scaling a construction business may not be easy, but with the right mindset and strategies, it can lead to incredible success.
