I’m only 13 but my dream is too have a construction business, What can i Do right Now to have it easier when i grow upp?

Hey Jesse, great video. I am curious to know once the business is completely automated in this way, do founders still collect a salary or just distributions from net profit?

Just watched this whole thing aspire to be in your position bro, me and my dad just got our first big job in Vancouver Canada.

Thank you for pricing this reasonably J Lane

I’m going to be honest, I was excited but it seemed like a more expensive version of Notion + Miro for me

I hope the price stays reasonable and not increase the price every year I know costs go up but I hope that’s not the thought process to start low and go higher and higher

So you’re going to need to create more How-to-Videos so we can add them to our process for using Structur to train the team? Lol

WOW! Congratulations, Jesse.

Congratulations Man!!!! that's amazing. Huge milestone

Great video. What do we do with all the unlicensed contractor that take your deposit and doesn’t finish the job for you?

Great video👍🏿

This is my sign to move fully to commercial. I’m over residential! Thanks for this video.

I started 5 year ago as MAM remodeling as a dba doing painting on houses. After a year doing houses I got the opportunity to do a commercial project. After that I create a corporation as MAM Constructions Services. Right now I have a project manager, superintendents, estimators, and most important an excellent crew 👏 every project we get 30% + as sub of subs and 45% + as subcontractor directly. But I need customers 😢 need help selling 😫 all our growth is because people like our work and give us more work but I need new customers 😢 a sale person that knows how to get customers in Constructions. 🤔

Kent Clothier is so freaking smart. I love how so to the point he is.

How would someone go from a 4 man handyman team to a real GC in NYC? I'm actually a licensed GC here, but we focus on small jobs. I'm trying to see where to grow next.

Thanks for info❤

Great listen fellas 👏

Hey Jesse, great video! In your experience, how many years should the take to build? Assuming one is starting from scratch?

This guy's quirky sense of humor is acquired taste. But pretty damn funny after

Pretty sure one of those roles is your wheelhouse that you get the most enjoyment out of, and will return to at some point in your career...

@Buildertrend scammed my small business! Bought their software thinking the 30-day refund guarantee applied. Realized within hours it wasn’t for us, but they denied my refund. This is unacceptable. #SmallBizScam #CustomerService

That's a great blueprint. BuilderBid's estimating service can help builders green light that estimating box! We help put estimating on autopilot. Jesse, would love to meet some time 👍

Do you need to go to construction school to get a license or can you just take the exam prep and get the books?
