The Business for Builders Podcast
Powered by Smith & Sons
Welcome to the Business for Builders Podcast!
The Business for Builders podcast has been set up to provide business information and insight for general contractors who are looking to fill the gaps, remove the deficiencies and vulnerabilities in their business.
Our goal is to help increase your business intelligence whilst you continue to run your business. Subjects relating to Self Improvement, Financial Management, Strategic Planning, and Business Development are the focus because as construction practitioners, this is our blind spot!
