Over the past 15 years I’ve traveled all over this country attempting to stamp the message of profitability into the lives of the wonderful people in this great industry, and teach them self-respect for the indispensable work they do. It has been a burning passion of mine.
At various times I’ve tried to enlighten, cajole, embarrass or do whatever else it takes to get the message across. I’ve made numerous friends along the way — as well as a few enemies. What is frustrating to me, however, is knowing that my articles and seminars are not enough. If a seminar was all it took for a contractor to turn his or her life around, you would find me presenting them every week of the year. A seminar helps, but it takes more.
