There are 25,000 restoration companies in the US. Over 80% are mitigation-only businesses. Would it surprise you to learn that many of those want to become full-service? But they don’t for one reason – FEAR! Contractors are afraid. They’ve heard the warnings and lousy experiences of less able others and believe their half-truths as reasons for not taking the plunge themselves. Some of the most common half-truths that keep contractors out of this profitable service are:
- I don’t have any construction experience.
Truth: If you are a competent manager you can build the management process to succeed.
- I don’t have a General Contractors
Truth: Most states don’t require one. Only half, do you need any contractor’s license at all, and many of those are merely Home Improvement licenses.
- The margins are too thin.
Truth: In the insurance market you can make a 50% profit on every job if you know how.
- I don’t know what to do and where to start.
Truth: I know exactly what to do, how to do it, and in what order to do it.
- I could never handle the cash flow of floating rebuild projects.
Truth: You don’t have to. You can get paid before the job ever starts.
- I don’t know where to find subs.
Truth: I know how to recruit, vet, and supervise a growing subcontractor pool. We could go on and on and on like this. I understand you don’t know what you don’t know. So find someone who knows what you don’t. If you find such a person every issue that causes you to fear, every matter that keeps you from adding rebuild, every excuse that stops you from acting courageously, you can overcome as others have done before you. If you want to add the $1 million or more to your revenue adding rebuild services is just that way to do it, and I can help you do it. I have successfully coached many others to do it … and I can help you! Don’t let fear and misinformation keep you out of the best money maker in the restoration industry!
