Due to technical difficulties, this episode is only 15 minutes long, but despite that, we still thought it was worth salvaging and worth sharing.

On today's show, we talk to Cian Brennan - CEO of Quantum Contract Solutions about; Signing better contracts.

Everything in life is a contract in some regard.

As we unpack what Construction really is - it's all about contracts.

Even when we've done it in Construction for decades, when you get that contract and go through it, it can be tremendously painful at times. Sub-Contractors especially receive the highest risk contracts on every project. 

So we're here today, talking about signing better contracts, which brings Quantum into the equation.

Quantum specializes in contract negotiation to protect Sub-Contractors and mitigate their losses for circumstances beyond their control and so much more.

I had the privilege of engaging in a discussion with Gabe Guetta, the Founder and CEO of SALUS, about their revolutionary product that redefines the concept of Health and Safety, placing people at the forefront. With Gabe's extensive experience in the construction industry, he has collaborated on a product that simplifies safety protocols and incorporates innovative measures to ensure real, transformative safety on-site. Helping everyone on the project stay compliant, streamlining their required safety protocols, and providing real Health and Safety access at the touch of a button on a smartphone or handheld device. 

The realm of health and safety is highly intricate, often accompanied by a prevailing stigma. However, these outdated perceptions are gradually giving way to positive changes. SALUS challenges the conventional approach, shifting from merely signing forms to now having everything in a digital platform that fosters a genuine understanding of health and safety.

It is crucial to grasp the underlying purpose of these safety measures. Even in the digital realm, the true purpose of health and safety can sometimes get diluted, despite the substantial investments made in government and corporate programs.

Ultimately, the well-being of workers is of paramount importance. SALUS seeks to revolutionize this aspect through its groundbreaking software.

"What would happen if your annual income instantly became your monthly income?"  -Bob Proctor

What if you figured out how to make a quantum leap?

Many people who start a business have a middle-class mindset, which can limit their success. This mindset is often focused on security, stability, and steady income, which can lead to a risk-averse approach to running a business. However, entrepreneurship requires a different way of thinking and acting. You can't simply approach a business like it's a job, where you show up, put in your hours, and collect a paycheck. Instead, you need to take calculated risks, make strategic decisions, and constantly innovate to stay ahead of the competition. This means being willing to invest time, money, and effort into your business without immediate rewards, and having the resilience and persistence to push through setbacks and failures. By recognizing the limitations of a middle-class mindset and adopting an entrepreneurial mindset, you can set yourself up for success in your business endeavors.

Tune in to learn the 3 mindsets that create a successful business.

In this podcast episode, David Neagle offers insights into his personal journey of success in both business and personal growth. By sharing his secrets and strategies, he provides valuable lessons that listeners can apply to their own lives and careers. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from a visionary leader and unlock your own potential!
