Purfeckt .....

Purfeckt .....

In this Episode I talk about how striving for perfection can be good but also very bad.

None of us are perfect, and most of the time we are working with hand crafted materials that are not perfect and with that i find alot fo painters are definitley getting in their own way. And that can make you loose money..

Yes painters have this stigma attached to them like we can work miracles or are magicians LOL but remember we are only as good as what we get.

I also chat about how perfect or the best, weather it be in systems or products, have now become a highly used sales pitch.

But remember, any good sales man can sell you the "best", even with the "worst" product... and even the "best" product can be used poorly.. Let that sink in ..


Happy Painting.

Estimating and Blue Prints

Estimating and Blue Prints

In this Episode I go live while I run through some blueprints for a new custom home.
I explain bit of my process and pricing and give some great tips and hints on how to run down estimates off blueprints and draw downs.
There's so many systems and now great tools and even apps that can really take your estimating and pricing to the next level.
I rock it a bit old school with custom excel templates and some good old fashion pen and paper.
Thanks for always listening and hope you enjoy!

TWT EP.2 FACTS VS. OPINION

TWT EP.2 FACTS VS. OPINION

Facts Vs. Opinion, do you walk the walk or just talk the talk??
Where do we draw the line on this topic on social media platforms. Being that we are putting ourselves out there for all to see, do we need a thick skin socially now a days, or is it a matter of a opinion and if that opinion really even matters, if it wasn't even asked for !! Or can you back that with facts and truth of the matter!
Here's what Todd and I thought on this episode.
