One mistake in construction can wipe out 20 years of hard work.

It sounds extreme, but it happens every day.

Rising interest rates, skyrocketing material costs, and a shortage of skilled workers are creating the perfect storm.

On top of that, most contractors are blindly signing risky contracts that shift all the pressure onto them.

If you're not negotiating smarter and protecting your margins, you're playing a dangerous game.

In this episode, find out what’s really killing construction companies and how the top 1% are protecting themselves while making more profit on every project. Listen up!
