Interesting topic, when I started my plumbing company I said ok WHAT am I really selling, WHO am I selling it to, HOW do I get it to them, and WHY should they buy from us. 2 years in and we are about to put into service our 4th truck and are expecting 600-700k in sales for the year. So many people overlook the business end and only focus on the product end. Spending 40 minutes on a plan for the week, the month, or the quarter really gives you a guidline to follow. Great work on the podcast.
I found this site on accident and man, I am glad I did. The owner of the company I work for has been looking restlessly for the core values of a growing plumbing business and you have ample amounts of great advise. Thank you.
Great topic Josh! Keep up the good work.
