Fellow construction business builders, this one's for you. We see the blood, sweat, and calluses that go into building more than structures – you're building legacies for your families and teams.

The late nights spent chasing bids, the relentless pursuit of that next project – it's all to create a foundation for something bigger.

Don't doubt the dream. You started this business with a vision, a desire to not just build, but to build a future for the people you care about most.

The struggle is real – finding skilled crews, navigating tight margins – but every satisfied client, every project completed, is a brick laid on the path to your success.

This industry isn't for the faint of heart, but you are the heart of it.

Your passion, your dedication, that's what fuels your team. Keep that fire burning, because together, you're building more than buildings – you're building dreams. We stand with you, every step of the way.

Stay strong,

Derek

You have no idea how to describe it and how to present it and you are doing marketing in your vlog only. There is not a single method of costing you unfold in your video except saying some technical words. please dont waste time of the people.

Would you recommend some software for an electrical contractor. We currently use excel and quickbooks for our estimates.
I find that it’s very difficult to build assemblies with an excellent sheet.

Also I would love a software that could load material costing in bulk

Do you work Independently?
Is it OK to take work home especially.
Do you own your own software or codes?
