Episode description

Today I’m replaying a course that I did for The Contractor Success Academy. The Contractor Success Academy is hosted by Webrunner Media’s Mark Levesque and is a series of around two dozen FREE online courses.

In this episode, I cover my 1-Page Business Plan. It’s a FREE download, so be sure to get it! You’ll learn about how to plan, design, and implement a solid business plan. This is especially important going into 2021 because there’s going to be a lot of opportunities available, but in order to capitalize on it, you’ll need to be ready. I hope the information in today’s show will help you do just that!

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

  • Many contractors don’t know where to start in laying out a business plan.
  • The 1-Page Business Plan is a simple, eight-step, fillable PDF.
  • Let’s reverse-engineer and detail the steps so that we can understand where we need to start:
    • Where do you want to go? Where do you want to end up?
    • What, who, where, and why?
    • Come up with a one-minute elevator pitch.
      • What’s the problem that you solve?
      • How do you solve that problem better than your competition?
      • What’s the action you want them to take?

    • The “SWOT”: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, & Threats
    • Take a look at the operation, which is like a 3-legged stool:
      • You have to sell work
      • You have to do the work
      • You have to keep score

    • The process: a 2-week vacation
    • The action: What’s the ONE THING that’s going to make a difference in your business?
    • The view: Do you like what you see?

  • When you’re building your team, they want to see someone who is a leader, who has a plan, and knows where they want to go.
