I've hesitated to put this episode out, because I generally try to take an optimistic, encouraging tone. But we can't get better until we accept the reality of our situation. So, here's to each of us, and the building industry as a whole, staring reality in the eyes - and getting better. Wishing everyone nothing but success! Enjoy the episode.

At the most fundamental level, there are really only two strategies in business, and only one that works for small businesses. Most home builders get this wrong, and end up stuck in the middle, never generating the profits they should.

In this episode Jared discusses the risks of getting your strategy wrong, and the opportunities once you find the one that truly sets your business apart.

Joey Fentress is the founder and owner of Proform Builds, a Seattle-based luxury home builder. Joey recently expanded his operation into Austin, where I was introduced to him and his team. The level of professionalism with which Joey runs his business is evident in just a short conversation, and it's reflected in the quality of their builds.

This episode is a conversation with Joey about his in-house labor, and how he manages that aspect of his business. Enjoy the episode, and if you like this and others we have done, it would be a huge help if you leave us a review here in your podcast player. Thanks for listening!

This is one of the most inspiring episodes I've recorded. I have mentored Joe Hodge over the last few years as he set out on his dream to start his own home building company. Starting alone is difficult enough, but the market forces over the last few years added major complications as Joe came out of the gate.

But Joe is a fighter (literally and metaphorically), and built a resoundingly successful project even with serious headwinds. We visit on both his wins and his lessons learned from this first of what will surely be many successful projects as Joe grows his company.

Enjoy the episode!
