Description

Are you tired of spending hours on quotes that go nowhere or worse, win the job and realise you've underpriced it?

In this episode of The ToolShed Podcast, I sat down with Haydn Simmons from PriceAPlan, one of Australia's leading estimating companies, to unpack why builders lose money on estimates and the simple 3-step process to fix it.

We dive into the growing pressures of the building industry, rising costs, client expectations, and emotional stress and reveal how smart builders are systemising their estimating process to protect their time, sanity, and profit.
