I recently purchased your book “Markup and Profit” and love reading your newsletters every chance I get . . . I want to thank you for helping small contracting companies like ours succeed by giving us the necessary tools and resources. After reading your book I knew that sustainable growth was in our future and that we needed a shared vision to maintain direction and inspire our current and new Teammates. Thank you for helping us grow.
Thanks so much for everything you and your wife have done for us! I look forward to talking with you again.
I want to start by saying, THANK YOU, for writing Markup & Profit Revisited. I have an MBA and we literally spent years learning to dissect financial statements, but they didn’t teach us how to use those numbers to run a profitable business . . . The basics presented in your book are applicable to any business. I especially appreciate the time dedicated to “wrong math” and why it’s wrong. That’s very helpful.
Just wanted to also say that Your teachings really have changed my business for the best. We are finally able to grow because we are making enough money to do so. I’m very glad I stopped listening to the idiots preaching the “industry standard” as far as markup and profit. Thanks again for all that you and your wife do.
Michael’s classes and newsletters have been the most helpful information I have ever accessed from all the different building publications over the last several years. Thank you so much.
Michael advised me when I was having a difficult client. He has a great knack for understanding where people stand and I think he has helped many honest contractors go from losing money to having a decent life. I think the biggest change I was able to make was to not be focused on price. To be focused on professional service and professional work. People will pay for that.
