Most assume that weak leaders avoid providing negative/constructive feedback to their people due to a lack of courage. More often than not, it's a lack of forethought or preparation.
One metric I use to assess brand strength - for my co's, my competitors, and in diligence - is Branded Search Volume. i.e. how many people are searching for "Sanford Temperature Control" vs. "furnace repair near me." Questions this helps me answer: + How does our brand stack…
The quickest way to earn trust with your team: Identify high-priority action items in conversation with them. And then rapidly action them. Says easy, does hard.
Absolutely beautiful day for a Red Sox home opener with a few of our HVAC installers.
Last week, we firmly planted our feet in New Hampshire with a big shop move and upgrade. Pulled our two NH co's under one roof and one brand, completing the merge we began in Feb. Team's walking with their heads held high. Productivity & collaboration have noticeably increased.
Teaching people how to drive stick brings me a ton of joy. My wife took a shot at the old truck today. Did great. Mostly.
The most fulfilling aspect of my job is watching my people grow and mature. Folks that started with me as laborers, CSRs, dispatchers, technicians - now running their own departments, integrating new teams, growing their people, tackling challenging problems. Can't beat it.
Friends don't let friends use 3rd-party call centers for their service businesses.
🚨 Northeast SMB Meetup tonight When: 6:30pm Where: Strange Brew Tavern, Manchester, NH Some folks that have RSVP'd: @glad_cap @patrickdichter @BroknClok @tripleoss @EverestBrady If you're in the area and we haven't met, all the more reason to join! Don't be a stranger. 🍻
The best partnerships are built on a mutual feeling of guilt. Where each person feels they're getting the better end of the deal - and works to be worthy of their share.
Off-market sellers explaining their approach to revenue recognition:
🚨 First-time business buyers 🚨 If you're keen on buying a $1m rev, $300k SDE business, I won't stop you. We all need to take action within our means to get in the game. I did it. You can too. BUT know that paying any amount of money for a biz this size is doing the seller a…
"If I had actually bought this business last year, I'd probably be facing bankruptcy right now." ^call I got today from a close friend He was engaged in negotiations to buy a blue-collar SMB last year. Seemingly strong. Seller needed too much, but they had built solid…
New SOP we've landed on: You get an extra pair of eyes before you get an extra pair of hands. Need help with your daily responsibilities? No problem - but let's review your workflows first.
One of the hallmarks of small business ownership is being responsible for things that you're not actually any good at. Growth gains you the ability to hire people in those areas who are.
@DavidLewis9523 We had more frequent price complaints when we were priced too low to make any money (and afford the resources needed to deliver a great service). Significantly more expensive now with significantly fewer complaints. We can now deliver on the promise.
