by Chris Coghlan
Built 2 Win is a performance-driven media platform for contractors who are done surviving chaos and ready to lead at a higher level. We fuse elite performance principles with real conversations from top contractors, operators, and leaders to strengthen the five components that drive long-term success: Foundation, Frame, Engine, Operations, and Crew. This show exists to elevate the contractor’s voice, restore pride in the industry, and create a community where high performers can learn from the best, sharpen their leadership, and help leave the construction industry better than they found it.

Ep 01 - How to Build a Billion Dollar Construction Company From Scratch with Junior Davis
Subscribe to the channel https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisCogzFrom Shovel to CEO: Building a Construction Empire with Junior DavisWelcome to The Contractor’s Playbook: Built to Win, where we dive deep with the leaders who don’t just build infrastructure, they build culture, legacy, and lives. In today’s episode, host Chris Coghlan sits down with Junior Davis, founder of Junior Davis Construction, for an inspiring conversation about humble beginnings, gritty persistence, and what it takes to turn a single front-end loader into a billion-dollar backlog and a team of over 1700 in only 10 Counties.From white-knuckle years of going it alone, battling self-doubt while expecting his first child, to learning the power of culture, faith, and relentless effort, Junior Davis shares the inside story behind JDC’s remarkable rise. You’ll hear about early lessons swinging a shovel, the impact of mentors and family, weathering industry downturns with humility, building a thriving family business, and how JDC’s tradition of faith and gratitude has shaped its tight-knit performance culture.Whether you’re a veteran contractor, a young entrepreneur, or anyone seeking wisdom on leadership, legacy, and navigating risk, this episode is packed with gold. Join us as we unpack the difference between founder’s mentality and elite operator mindset, the value of hands-on leadership, and why, for Junior Davis, success is all about effort, not just results. Grab your coffee and get ready for a masterclass in business, faith, and the power of never settling for less than your full potential.This episode is proudly brought to you by Big League Construction Supplyhttps://bigleaguecs.comThank you to our SponsorsRingPower: https://www.ringpower.com/locations/orlandoJohnson & Co Insurance: https://johnsonandcompany.net===========================Connect with me Chris Coghlan! =============================IG: ➡︎ https://www.instagram.com/cogz08X: ➡︎ https://x.com/TheChrisCogsLinkedin: ➡︎ https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-coghlan-08aa863b9/Facebook: ➡︎ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61589223128588TikTok: ➡︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@thechriscogsThreads: ➡︎ https://www.threads.com/@cogz08
