Andrew begins by urging listeners to prioritize clear and proactive communication from the very start, starting with the quoting process. 🔍✉️
He stresses the need for detailed quotes that break down different phases and allocates time and resources effectively. 📝⏰
By doing so, you set the right expectations for your team and clients, avoiding costly mistakes and misunderstandings down the line. 🚧🤝

He emphasizes the power of simplicity and gradual progress, urging contractors to take action and apply these strategies to achieve profitability and success. 🏗️💰
