You're bidding like crazy, your team's finally gaining traction, and then... one line in the fine print knocks you out of the running: Bid bond required.

In this new solo episode, Scott Peper (CEO & Founder of Mobilization Funding) breaks down exactly what a bid bond is, why you need one, and how getting one ahead of time can be the edge you didn’t even know you needed. Because here's the thing: a bid bond isn’t just a formality. It can separate you from the pack, protect your margins, and show serious GCs and owners that you’re someone they can bet on when it matters most.

Scott walks through:

🔹 What a bid bond actually is—and why it’s way more than just a box to check
🔹 Real-world examples where not having a bid bond cost contractors jobs they could’ve won
🔹 Why having a bid bond ready can give you a serious advantage (even when it’s not required)
🔹 What a surety will really look at—and how getting your docs right now can open way more doors later

If you're a subcontractor trying to level up and land the kind of jobs that actually change your business, this is a 15-minute investment worth making.

Hit play, take notes, and start building a tighter, more prepared construction business.
