EPISODE 422: If you're a general contractor, and you feel like you're buried under processes, stuck in the weeds, and constantly spinning to keep things moving... this episode is going to give you the roadmap to simplify, systematize, and scale without burning out.

I will be diving into Elon Musk's 5-step algorithm for making complex systems work better and show you exactly how to apply it to your construction business.

Here's the deal: most people think the solution is adding more and more. More software, more steps, more tools, but the real breakthrough comes from removing what's not working.

I'll walk you through how to:

  • Challenge every requirement and stop accepting things as they are

  • Ruthlessly delete unnecessary processes and tasks

  • Simplify your systems so your team actually uses them

  • Speed up cycle times to get stuff done faster

  • And then, and only then, should you think about automation

šŸ‘‰ Hit play and let's talk about what you can delete to build a better business.
