Guest: Ed Earl from @the_zen_builder

...

In this episode Ed shares stories and tips from his experience in advising luxury home builders through the entire construction process. His passion is helping builders to ease the stress and find peace of mind. He also is heavily involved in helping contractors recruit great help. Which during these times is hugely needed! Here is a portion of what’s inside:

...

“There are 3 things you must understand to eliminate stress during construction:

  1. The homeowner’s perspective
  2. The inherent lack of trust
  3. The emotions a homeowner goes through”

...

“Understand the other other person, and be compassionate.“

...

“Trust the process.“

...

“It will all come together for a purpose.”

...

“With adversity there is an opportunity.”

“ There are 6 hiring myths you must eliminate:

  1. Only recruit when you need help
  2. Viewing employees as an expense
  3. No need for a recruiting service
  4. Must hire from within the industry
  5. Hire fast, fire slow
  6. Thinking of recruiting like any other project.”

And much, much more!

New Episode!!!

Host: Martin Holsinger from @contractingsimplified and @martinholsinger

...

In this episode Martin shares all about the two levels of trust every human has and how it relates to landing a job with your dream client. Here’s a few snippets from inside the episode:

...

“Every human being has two levels of trust.”

...

“People want to trust you, but they also don’t.“

...

“We don’t want to trust people because we don’t want to get hurt.“

...

“We’ve learned how to put barriers that we unconsciously make people pass through in order to win our trust.”

...

“In order for someone to invite you into the intimate drama of helping them realize their dream project, you are going to have to earn their trust at the second level.”

And much, much more!

...
