Summary:
If you’ve ever wondered how to start a general contractor business, this video gives you a proven roadmap. I’ll show you how new and experienced contractors can go from zero to multi-million in sales by focusing on the right systems from day one. You’ll learn the exact steps I used—and what I now teach over 3,000+ clients nationwide—to build a sustainable contracting company that generates consistent projects and profits.


What you’ll learn in this video:

✅ How to set up a contractor sales pipeline before your license is even finalized
✅ The Master List strategy that surfaces hidden projects and warm leads from your phone
✅ Construction estimating basics and bidding strategies that actually win jobs
✅ How to approach architects with a high-end portfolio and offer budget estimating & precon consulting
✅ Why bundling trades with bidding packages creates bigger deals and higher closing rates

These strategies have helped clients land contracts as big as $20 million in less than a year. Whether you’re just starting a construction company or already running projects, you’ll see how to combine smart estimating, targeted lead generation, and relationship-based selling to accelerate growth.
