Four Key Words To Increasing Your Contracting Cash Flow And Profits

The Four Most Important Words Your Construction Clients Say:

"While it's open anyway...." (the walls, floors, ceiling)
"Since we're this far..." (in the project, remodel, new house)
"I have an idea..." (for more work to be done, change something)
"Now my wife wants..." (more, more and more)

Highly profitable and very successful Contractors like you respond with...

"Tell me more and let me take some notes so that I can better understand what you want". They open their paper notepad or electronic device and start documenting everything their client says.

People love to buy stuff and even more important they love to be listened too and interviewed so when you are listening and taking notes you are giving them what they crave most; respect and attention!

During Junior High and High School whenever I was not needed in the family construction company I developed a lawn mowing business by going door-to-door in my neighborhood, presenting and selling my services.

Whenever someone said yes to hiring my services I stared asking questions about how they wanted their lawn to look and feel, how often they wanted it mowed, did they want the edges trimmed and was there anything else I needed to know that was important to them. In short I listened and took notes and gave them what they crave most; respect and attention!

When I started my first construction company building custom outdoor decks and finishing basements in new split-level homes during the "Bidding Process" I listened and took notes and gave them what they crave most; respect and attention! This process of asking questions quickly separates "Clients From The Customers".

Contracting clients are more profitable because they understand and respect professionals who have processes and systems so they willingly participate in the interview process. Customers dislike processes and systems because it means the contractor is a professional whom they cannot bully or intimidate; which means in general they will not participate in the interview process and try to get control by continously insisting you offer a price.

Contracting Clients operate primarily from the adult ego and see everything in their world as a Win-Win encounter, otherwise they walk away. Clients want the work done, right and on-time and they expect to pay a fair or even high price to get what they want when they want it and to create long lasting fruitful relationships with everyone, not just contractors.

Customers operate from the child or parent ego and see everything in their world as a Win-Lose encounter or they walk away. Customers use manipulation tactics and play word games in order to chisel, cheat, steal and negotiate everything in a life and death struggle to get the lowest possible price and to cripple or destroy any hope of a long lasting relationship with everyone, not just contractors.

Clients are a source of repeat work massive increases in cash flow and profits for your contracting company because they are "The Goose That Laid The Golden Egg". Smart contractors like you will pamper them, give them exactly what the want (Click Here To Learn More) and watch your bank balance skyrocket.

When Your Construction Client Says:

"While it's open anyway...." (the walls, floors, ceiling)
"Since we're this far..." (in the project, remodel, new house)
"I have an idea..." (for more work to be done, change something)
"Now my wife wants..." (more, more and more)

You Say: "Tell me more and let me take some notes so that I can better understand what you want". And open your paper notepad or electronic device and start documenting everything. Then as soon as possible transfer your notes to a change order, get it signed, collect the amount of the change order, put the money in the bank and put the change order in the work schedule.
