Who We Help

 

We Work With all contractors in the U.S.A. including residential, tenant improvement and commercial contractors, home builders, remodelers, specialty contractors, subcontractors, architects and other construction related companies and businesses.

If you are like most of our contractor clients you have an enormous amount of skill, experience, passion, knowledge in construction. They came to us because they wanted to spend less time on paperwork and more time doing what they do best.

Do Any Of These Apply To Your Situation?

You started your construction company within the past five years or you are just starting one now. It seemed like a good idea at the time because you were laid off or you had a few friends and relatives that needed some work done on their homes and businesses on your day off and now you are stuck with a lot of paperwork, quarterly tax returns to prepare and file, bills and timecards to enter, payroll to process and you need job costing reports to know where you are making and losing money.

You have been in your construction company more than five years ago. Now it feels like you are running in place and not getting anywhere. The dream of being your own boss is becoming the nightmare of being pushing a boulder up a hill only to have it roll back down to the bottom every time you get close to the top. 

You need to know which jobs are most profitable and how to get more of them. It seems like everyone is asking you to cut your prices, get everything for them at wholesale and does change orders for free. The answer to fixing this problem is very simple and it might surprise you!

You tried to setup your contractors bookkeeping system and it's not working. You want to keep track of all your income and expenses and after fighting with it you gave up and are using it like an expensive check register that never matches the bank statement.

You make an Invoice and it comes out wrong. It has the wrong cost codes, the amounts are wrong, the numbers don't add up, it doesn't show previous deposits and payments and your customers lose faith in your contractors bookkeeping services and refuse to pay until you can explain every bit of it in detail and in a way that makes sense to them.

You know you need financial reports to run your construction company. You got into business to have more freedom which means more money in the bank and less stress and yet no matter what you try the Profit & Loss Report and Balance Sheet Report doesn't look right and you are having a hard time understanding what it all means.

The Short Video Below Tells The Whole Story

We Help You Understand Your Financial Reports

For example the Balance Sheet is a collection of three "O's"

  1. Assets = Who Owes you money?

  2. Liabilities = Who you Owe money too?

  3. Equity = How much money is left Over for you?

Now you know what the Balance Sheet is and when you are a client we can show how to use it to increase sales and profits and why it is so important.

Perhaps You Want More

You have everything you need. You are operating and growing your construction company; however, you need professional guidance on how to harness the energy generated by the "roller coaster ride" of the Business Cycle. And ride waves of contraction and expansion. You need strategies and tools that can help you forecast and plan ahead so you know what to do in any economic situation.

You want a Construction Business Process Management (CBPM) Plan to help with:

  2. Accounting that provides 24/7 access to financial reporting including Key Performance Reports

You know there is waste in your construction company operations. A dollar saved is dollar earned and those savings can add hundreds or even thousands in cash flow and profits.
