I called David today, after going through a rough patch yesterday when my small business was…read moretemporarily banned from Mailchimp. I realized it was time for some outside assistance. I can't rely 100% on my own limited experience. David Mitroff (the man in the picture) was extremely generous with his time over the phone. I told him abt a potentially risky sales contract I was considering. He took at least 20 minutes to go over with me how I can mitigate that risk and what I should do to prepare for negotiation. He did not have to do that. But he wanted to make sure I didn't get scr3w3d over. He didn't want to see me fail. For that reason, Piedmont Avenue will be the first place I come to once I'm ready for a deeper strategic conversation and more hands-on assistance. Will update once I have more to say. Thanks David!

So I began my journey with Contractors Coach in October of '23. I had been in the remodeling…read morebusiness for 9 years and it seemed to continue to get worse. 250k in debt with a secondary lender at 20 plus percent, consistently not being able to pay my company bills on time, barely making payroll week to week, it was ugly and getting worse by the month. I knew I needed help but how the heck was I able to afford it and what did they know that I didn't after all these years in business?? But I was at the end of my business rope and getting worse so I took a gamble and called Contractors Coach. After an interview describing my issues they set me up with Tom Pearson and honestly, it changed my business life (which changed my personal life). Today is May 29, 2024 and everything has changed. I have paid my (I kid you NOT) secondary note off, have gone from negative financial numbers to a gross profit of 30%, total expenses under 14%, and a net income of over 15%. Here's a tip, if you don't understand what these numbers mean (like I didn't 6 months ago) you will continue to struggle. Among other things, Tom taught me to read my financials which helped me understand what was wrong and what was right. He immediately identified a flaw in my estimating process then week after week we tutored the financials until I could understand where my money was going and how to make the numbers work. There is no quick fix when you are in as deep as I was. But having an understanding of how to climb out of the hole and the patience to put in the right financial practices over the course of only 6 months is absolutely remarkable. Kind, witty, knowledgeable, non-judgmental, he's a wonderful balance to get you on the right road. But I have to say there is ONE huge issue with the guy, sadly, he's a 49ers fan. Thankfully I was able to overlook that fault and focus on his lessons and it changed me. God Bless you Tom Pearson. Go Lions!

About a year ago I was struggling because my business did not have systems and there was no coherent culture in the business. When I met with the coaches at The Contractors Coach I felt they were really interested in helping me. During the coaching sessions we addressed the problems quickly. I learned how to create an effective company culture, and it helped weed out some people who were really bad employees. Our workflow is way better now, we are more efficient, and our profits are definitely up. We are twice as profitable on each job as we were a year ago. Now I'm confident we can double the size of our company over the next two years. And if you are considering growing your business - "You'd be stupid not to work with them."
