261: It All Starts With The Right Mindset with Tom Reber
Episode description
As I’ve visited with many contractors at the IRE in New Orleans this week, I learned what I already know. Most roofing contractors have the same problems of working too many hours, wearing too many hats, and NOT making the profits they deserve. I can help! It all starts with the right mindset, and today’s show begins there. Join us!
Tom Reber is a USMC veteran and business coach who helps contractors get their heads right and make the money they deserve. He has actionable strategies and tactics that you can put into practice in your business today. Tom hosts The Contractor Fight podcast, and you can get a FREE copy of his new book, Winning the Contractor Fight.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
- Before we talk to Tom, I’m highlighting two recent coaching calls:
- A roofing contractor from Arizona needed help to build his brand around his specialty of tile roofs, repair, and replacement. He is making great progress in targeting his ideal customer and area of operation.
- A landscaper with an established company needed to see more growth. We took a different perspective on his specialty and focused on increasing his job sizes, marketing to high-end customers, and branding himself as unique among the competition.
- Tom shares feedback and results from his Mile-High Summit in Denver, where 350 contractors focused on “Living a Profitable Life.”

- Tom’s new book, Winning the Contractor Fight, takes a simple “block and tackle” approach to business, sales, and values.
- Why building a profitable can be “boring” with the consistency required to show up every day
- Tom’s formula: “Business is 10% math and 90% attitude.”
- Why Tom ALWAYS wants to be the underdog
- Why “the contractor fight” is always in our heads
- Why you have to take care of you and yours before taking care of everything else
- A few highlights from Tom’s new book:
- Ch. 1–”Own Your Own Crap”
- Ch. 2–”Get Oxygen”
- Ch. 3–”Carry a Light Pack”
- Ch. 4–”Break Even”
