    #018 - Paul Jackson Founder and CEO at Method. Helping trades contractors improve lead to Cash workflow through automation.

    Paul started Method, an entirely customizable platform for small businesses that want to simplify their unique way of working. Method is best known for its flagship product, Method:CRM. Paul believes that building small business software with one-size-fits-all mentality is lazy and outdated. This firm belief, paired with his experience as a self-taught coder and entrepreneur, resulted in Paul's empathy for small business owners.  Beyond the Belt with Mike Whalen. mwhalen1823 (IG) Sawblade74@hotmail.com

    #016 - Customer Service when Remodeling (Part 1)

    One of the most important skills we need to have when doing a remodeling project in someone's home is providing exceptional customer service! We can have great technical skills in the trade, but if the client is having a terrible experience, then it's not a success.   Beyond the Belt with Mike Whalen. mwhalen1823 (IG) Sawblade74@hotmail.com
