#13 - He Sailed 49 Countries Before Building a Construction Empire in Hawaii

On The Contractors Edge Podcast, host Nick interviews Eric Ernisse, founder and CEO of Coastal View Construction in Hawaii, about how adversity and personal development shape success in contracting. Eric shares his path from studying engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder to sailing with his family for seven years through roughly 49 countries, learning planning, patience, and how dealing with people can be harder than storms. Returning to Hawaii, he helped design and build his father’s home and then his own cottage, gaining hands-on experience that led to his contractor’s license and a 12+ year business focused on condo remodels. He discusses learning business systems, speed-to-lead, delegation, investing in coaching, screening for ideal clients, leading employees by understanding their “why,” and keeping perspective during lawsuits and difficult projects by remembering that “this too shall pass.”   💥 Eric's Links https://www.coastalviewconstructionllc.com/   🔥 Book Your FREE Growth Audit → https://cal.com/mybetterboss.ai/jobtread-free-growth-audit-call 📞 CONNECT WITH BETTER BOSS: 🌐 Website: https://better-boss.ai 📧 Brittney: [email protected] 📞 Phone: (720) 636-9500 📍 Highlands Ranch, Colorado ⚡ We only take limited clients per month.
