Contractor Cuts

The Halftime Reset Every Contractor Needs for the Second Half of the Year


Listen Later

You've made it to July — the exact halfway point of the year. So the question is: are you winning?

In this episode of Contractor Cuts, Clark and James walk through a halftime reset for your contracting business — the same quarterly review they run with coaching clients. Whether you're slammed with work or staring at an empty calendar, this is how you zoom out, find the holes, and set up the second half of the year to win.

They cover:

  • Why both the overwhelmed and the slow contractor need this reset
  • The 5-part halftime scorecard: revenue, pipeline, profit, team, and you
  • How to honestly measure your profit drift from bid to final invoice
  • The "keeper test" — the Netflix CEO's brutal question for evaluating your team
  • Why being burned out matters even when the numbers look great
  • The 3 adjustments most contractors need now: pricing, pipeline, and systems
  • How to build a simple month-by-month plan for July through December
  • Why you fix one operational crack per quarter — not all seven at once

If you've been running hard for six months without looking up, this is the episode that gets you a game plan for the back half of the year.

If you're doing $350K–$2M a year in revenue, coaching pays for itself. A 5% efficiency gain alone covers the cost — and that's before we even talk about growth. 

We help contractors stop losing money on crews, change orders, and inefficient operations — and start scaling.
