Скачать или смотреть Episode 118 | Building a Blue-Collar Business That Actually Works w/ Sy Kirby

Hard work builds the foundation. Systems, strategy, and experience are what take it to the next level.

In this episode, Scott welcomes Sy Kirby - founder and CEO of Sy-Con Excavation - who shares how he grew his business from a skid steer and camper to a multi-million-dollar excavation and utilities company. Sy gets real about the early mistakes, the long grind of residential work, the leap into commercial building, and the systems that changed everything: WIP reporting, specialized construction accounting, labor tracking, and building accountability without losing your crew.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Why nurturing relationships early leads to long-term opportunities
How to make the leap from residential to commercial without going broke
About the cash flow killers nobody warns you about: retainage, downtime, and debt traps
Why monthly P&Ls and WIP reports can save you hundreds of thousands of $$$
That pay-for-performance KPIs motivate crews without the need to dangle with empty carrots
About the #1 equipment mistake most contractors make (and how to avoid it)
Which mindset shift will keep you moving when doing business feels impossible

Whether you’re in year 2 of grinding it out or year 10 looking to scale, Sy’s story can help you turn hard-earned lessons into long-term growth.
