معلومات عن هذا البودكاست 🔗
Real talk with Twin Cities contractors about running a service business. No corporate BS, just honest conversations with the people who actually do the work. I'm Ryan, the Reasonable Tech Dad, and I talk with carpenters, plumbers, electricians, roofers, HVAC techs, and other skilled trades about what it really takes to build a successful contracting business in Minnesota. Every week, hear from contractors who've figured out how to find good customers, grow their business, and navigate the challenges of running a service company. Whether you're just starting out or you've been swinging a hammer for 20 years, you'll get practical advice from people who've been where you are. This is contractor-to-contractor conversation that helps everyone in the trades succeed. New episodes every week. Real contractors. Real advice.
