    The 3 Hidden Profit Leaks in Countertop Shops (Payroll, Inventory, Throughput) with Jason Laski

    If you run a countertop fabrication shop and you’re busier than ever… but you’re still wondering where the money went at the end of the month, this episode is for you. In today’s episode of the Driven for Growth Podcast, I sit down with Jason Laskey, our Strategic Growth Advisor for the stone and flooring divisions. Jason has spent years inside high-output stone operations, including helping scale a shop from one saw, one router, and nine guys producing ~600 sq ft/week to 50 employees, multiple saws/routers, an inline, and ~$20M/year in revenue. Together, we break down the three “hidden” profit leaks that quietly drain margin in most countertop shops: Payroll & overhead (and how shops misjudge true labor cost vs. output) Inventory management (the “death by a thousand cuts” that destroys cash and margins) Production rate & throughput (why not knowing your real output wrecks pricing and scheduling)We also get into the real reason these issues don’t get fixed: most owners and managers are so focused on getting jobs out the door that they don’t have a clean, simple way to measure what matters—and that creates expensive blind spots. If you’re ready to stop leaking profit and start running a tighter, more predictable shop, this one will hit home.  Want to see if our 90-Day Growth Engine Program™ is the right fit for you, you can book a call with us here: https://calendly.com/wesfields/game-plan Free Training — Watch Here Visit Our Website Follow Justin Shaw on Instagram
