Presented on Tuesday, December 3, 2019
Professional water well contractors provide one of the necessities to sustain human life, yet too often fail to recognize the value of their knowledge and expertise—let alone their investment in equipment and personnel. When the phone rings or there is an email inquiry for a job, what should the response be—certainly not a quote based on a competitor’s pricing structure. The fear of “losing a job” can ultimately result in “losing the business.” This workshop will walk you through the indirect cost maze that can determine whether your business is poised for long-term profitability or a capital death spiral.
