The No Bullsh*t Podcast For Contractors
by Andrew Houston
October 26, 2022 9:00 pm
It’s all about showing contractors for the last decade how to get the strategies and tools needed to get back time, control, and money.
If you’re not getting the kind of people you want to work with, it might be time to look at your hiring practices.
Business owners who do any of these want to overhaul their management approach as well:
😵 You don’t have any kind of training or orientation program in place.
😵 You don’t do any kind of reviews or feedback sessions with your employees.
😵 You don’t have regular meetings where you talk about how things are going and what’s working, and what isn’t working.
You don’t want to LOSE good people because they leave for greener pastures.
You want them to STAY with you because they love working for you and your company.
We have Hayes Nulman of Hayes Nulman Design on this week’s podcast to explain why hiring the right people is so important. In addition, he stressed the importance of outsourcing virtually and went on how it helped him gain back a lot of time.
