The Construction Leading Edge Podcast
Business:Entrepreneurship
EPISODE 275: We all know how systems and processes could make or break your construction business. But what's holding you back from taking those dramatic changes that could increase your business profitability?
In this week's episode, I've invited Michael Moore, owner and President of Waterton Construction Group. Waterton Construction is a hardscape site work improvement company based in north Texas.
Michael is here to share with us the systems and processes he used to increase his company's revenue by 30% and profitability by 60% year over year.
He also talks about the effects of creating positive pressure for himself, the concept of stewardship, how it affects how Michael runs his business, and the systems and processes he had put in place to grow his business to eight figures working only twenty hours a week.
Let's jump right in!
