@pricefoulger I always forget the tax and credit card fee too

@GoldBellClips What was the thought process before this

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

I have recently started putting an NDA in our proposals. We just were sent another contractors proposal by an HOA for a project we are bidding on. I called the contractor out of respect and let them know they were doing this

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

Do you know your true cost of an employee ? (with labor burden)

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

The cool thing about general contracting is it is the same systems & processes to do big jobs as small just more digits on the numbers. If you can get dialed in on small projects it is very scalable

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

The first few jobs will be sort of a guess but if you audit every dollar spent and make sure it is assigned somewhere in your estimating system it is only a matter of repetitions until dialed in

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

@contractorkeith I just estimate with 40 percent margins. Usually come out the end making 20 percent

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

As soon as I have something figured out, I realize I was wrong

@jamesonhaslam @smblawgroup @SMB_Attorney You got bottom left filing a lien?

@ToddLlewellyn What have you found your billing rate needs to be for a tech on a van?

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

what is a normal billable/budget rate for a superintendent? 120/HR?

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

You can tell a lot about somebody based on how long it takes them to check out at a store

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

Tiles have different batch numbers. Different batch numbers installed together costs lots of money to fix

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

@MartaCecilia36 Pick up your mess or I’ll backcharge

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]

Do a project. Fix whats broken. Do another job. fix what else is broken. 100 times. Profit!

[Larson Baldwin @LowCountry_GC]
