Most Valuable Contractor Information

I’m an entrepreneur that came from a background that wouldn’t typically have the knowledge or guidance to get through some of the hardest parts of business.

I found the this podcast and it fills so many gaps that are either not spoken of or sometimes over complicated and creates clarity. I have the podcast going on all of my construction travels. It’s become a daily must.

Great content, hands down!

Episode 259 is a great intro to this world view

This episode is right on. I listened while shaving this morning and now I’m completely fired up. -Cody
