Welcome to the APB Digest! This fortnight, we go inside how one builder went from a dry pipeline to tens of millions in signed contracts, save your seat for our partner webinar on implementing Wunderbuild with Claude, pull two of the sharpest moments from our Instagram, and unpack what a building company owner should actually delegate.
Justin Ferguson of Regional Home Builders had been building in Bendigo for 13 years, but the pipeline had run dry. After putting real systems and financial reporting in place with his APB coach, he signed tens of millions of dollars of contracts over the following year and a half, and he can finally switch off at the end of the day. Watch his story.
Join a live 90 minute session with Hashi Kaar, Director of Product Management at Wunderbuild, on putting Wunderbuild and Claude to work together in your building company, so you can get a job answer without even opening the software. Tuesday 11 August, 10:00am AEST, live on Zoom. Open to builders in Australia and New Zealand.
Two of the sharpest moments from @apbbuilders this fortnight.
Zak Johnson of ZJ Building on why builders should charge for their time and advice the way lawyers and doctors do. Respect starts with how you value yourself.
John VanLegen on how Joe’s Carpentry doubled revenue and lifted net profit from about 2 percent to 10 percent once he had someone to ask about the numbers.
Most owners know they should delegate, but hand off the wrong things and keep a grip on the very tasks holding the business back. This article draws the line between the work only the owner can do and the work quietly capping the company’s growth, so you can let go of the right things first.
