The Parts We Don't Talk About

I don't love hosting events.

Travel logistics. Booking meeting spaces. Building landing pages. Promoting. Coordinating catering. Slide decks. If I wanted to be an event planner, I would've skipped the 30 years in banking.

But here I am, less than two weeks out from Tampa, triple-checking the AV setup and wondering if I ordered enough coffee for day two. (The answer is always no. Order more coffee.)

So why do it?

Because I love helping contractors.

Not in the abstract, motivational-poster kind of way. I mean the specific moment when a contractor who's been grinding for 15 years finally sees why their $12M business isn't paying them like it should. When the numbers click. When the fog lifts.

That moment doesn't happen over Zoom. Not really.

I've built my entire coaching practice virtually. Most of my clients are hundreds of miles away. We meet on screens, share dashboards, work through financials together. It works. But there's something different about being in the same room. Eyeball to eyeball. No mute button. No "sorry, you're breaking up."

When I sit across from a contractor and walk through their Cash Flow Available to Owners for the first time, I can see the shift happen in real time. The questions get sharper. The defenses come down. The real conversation starts.

That's why I keep hosting events even though I don't love the logistics.

You probably feel the same way about parts of your business

You didn't get into contracting because you love refereeing between the field and the office. You didn't dream about mandatory safety training or rolling out the latest CRM that everyone's going to resist anyway. (Spoiler: they will. Give it six months before anyone actually uses it.)

You got into this because you love building something. Something you can point to and say, "I did that." Something the customer walks away impressed by.

That's the part worth protecting.

But here's what I've learned after working with hundreds of contractors: the parts you don't love are usually the parts bleeding you dry. The HR headaches. The payment chasing. The disconnect between field and finance that means your P&L says one thing and your bank account says another.

You can't love your way through those problems. You have to fix them.

What we're building in Tampa

Jerry Aliberti and I designed the Builder to CEO Summit for contractors who are done guessing.

Jerry's estimated over $12 billion in work. He's seen what separates contractors who build wealth from contractors who just build. When he and I started talking about what this event should be, we agreed on one thing: no fluff. No generic advice. No "rah-rah" motivation that fades by the time you land back home.

Instead, every attendee will work through a real-time assessment as we go through each session. By the end of day two, you'll walk away with a custom 12-month game plan—specific to your business, your numbers, your next moves.

We're keeping the group small intentionally. No competitors. Just peers. Contractors doing $5M to $50M+ who want to stop working harder for the same paycheck.

Will you love the TSA lines? No. The middle seat? Definitely not. The initial awkwardness of walking into a room full of strangers and pretending to read their name tag? That's universal.

But you'll love the clarity. You'll love being in a room with people who actually get it. And you'll love finally having a plan that connects field and finance.

The part worth showing up for

Social media makes it look like we love every part of running a business. We don't. Nobody does. We just promote the parts that make us proud.

I'm proud of what happens when contractors get in a room together and stop pretending everything's fine. When they admit the numbers don't make sense. When they finally ask the questions, they've been avoiding.

That's the part worth showing up for.

May 13-14. Tampa. A few seats left.
