Epi 146: From Builder to Business Owner" (Part 2): Calculate Your Real Hourly Rate and Delegate Everything Below it

Stop Being Employee of the Month in Your Own Business

Most builders get trapped being the best employee instead of the business owner. They roll up their sleeves, get their hands dirty, and stay stuck doing $47/hour tasks when they should be building systems and leading people.

Join Owen Chambers as he breaks down Part 2 of the Builder to Business Owner series, revealing how to calculate your Professional Builder Rate (PBR) and create the most important list in your business - your stop doing list. Discover why builders need different skills than tradespeople, the identity shifts from builder to business owner to entrepreneur, and how successful members like Doug systematically bought back their time by delegating everything below their hourly rate.

Learn the formula that shows exactly what tasks you should eliminate, who should do them instead, and how to build your business by design rather than default.
