EPISODE 386: Do you feel like your construction business is running you instead of the other way around? Do you constantly bring your work home?

For many construction business owners, weekends also mean emails and phone calls. Often, family dinners turn into business meetings. But not anymore!

In this week’s episode of The Construction Leading Edge podcast, I sit down with two of my favorite Canadians—and students of our Systematized Your Construction Business (SYCB) program—Laughlin and Ross Franklin.

Originally overwhelmed by the volume of work, the brothers struggled with a lack of structure and constant reactive management. After joining our program, they implemented powerful tools that transformed their construction company (and also their lives).

Today, the Franklin brothers share:

➡What chaos actually looks like in construction

➡The exact blueprint that reduced chaos in their business

➡How systematizing their business improved their quality of life

➡Tips for getting your team on board with change

…and more!
