Time Is Currency: How Contractors Invest, Spend and Waste Their Time

from Conquer Contractor Chaos · host Lee Thomas Miller - Brave Academy Coaching

Every contractor gets the same 24 hours. What separates average owners from high level operators is how they use them. In this short solo episode, contractor and cabinet shop business coach Lee Thomas Miller breaks your time into three buckets and shows which one grows your business. In this episode: Investing time: learning to price jobs, knowing your numbers, building systems, reading, planning, and surrounding yourself with people playing a bigger game Spending time: answering calls, running job sites and putting out fires, the work that keeps the lights on but doesn't grow anything Donating time: tire kicker clients, draining conversations and people who discourage your growth, and why this is the most dangerous bucket How systems and a team let you move more of your week into investing About the host: Lee Thomas Miller is a business coach for cabinet shops, closet companies and contractors, and the founder of Brave Academy. He took a painting franchise from $140K in debt to $3.25M at 20%+ net margins before exiting in 2021, and has since coached 150+ trades businesses.
