“CRM, canvassers, SEO/fb marketing, branding, lead by example, duplicate yourself, be a winning machine, remember 1099 are teammates not employees, be a leader not a boss”

“Run lean and tight and create Standard Operating Procedures”

“Stay lean, don’t act like you have money for at least the first 5 years if you’re new. If you’re not new, focus this year on how you can get rid of as much overhead as possible, minus the true operating cost of overhead. All the other stuff should be gone. Truck payments, lavish expenses, etc. Then follow that again for the next 5 years. Running lean and tight allows you to make moves others can’t, it relieves a lot of stress with continuing to operate in a tough economy when it comes, and it gives you a cushion that you can continue to operate even if a job goes south (in most cases) and still keep the doors open if you experience loss because you get screwed over, or one of your guys makes a bad judgement call that costs you. Then when you run lean make sure your SOP’s and operations are smooth as butter, then scale hard, all while staying lean.”

“Do the work yourself and show them how it’s done”

“Don’t be a boss that leads by instructions but by action! I still go out and door knock, meet adjusters, project manage etc, My team knows I put in as much work as I expect from them”

Marshall Green

“Good project management, and lead management. The key to success is leads and sales”

“Get good project management and lead management software. Build a good business infrastructure especially a key office person. Develop your sales and marketing system and production dept. The key to success is leads and sales. Have enough capital to invest going in. You might want to attend some seminars and learn the business. Hopefully you have experience in the industry, it’s very competitive and not for the faint at heart. Tons of money to be made if you do it right!!”
