It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help.

I want you to know that I just read your book and it has changed my entire business structure . . . I want to thank you for the information you shared through your book, it has transformed my thinking about profit and mark up.

I have been a massive fan of your valuable work since I first got in touch and took delivery of your Mark Up and Profit book many years ago. It was a fantastic help to me at a difficult time and I have always been grateful.

I have attended the course twice now in my over 15 years in this business. The last one I attended I got more great information. . . . I also came away with one more thing: You guys are sincere, straightforward, no BS, and you’re really good at what you do!

I am a landscape contractor . . . I realize your target audience is building contractors but I wanted to let you know that I get so much out of your newsletters. I am so grateful. This has been a huge line of support, clarity and inspiration for my work.

Your books and online training courses have been absolutely instrumental in getting our business on the right track. Thanks! I just wish I came across them sooner, as it would have saved me a year (or more) of bad practices and costly mistakes.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU to you and Michael for all that you do to support us owners. It’s always a breath of fresh air to be in the company of other owners, and then receive sound information and advice from those who have lead the path.

Just read your brief article about estimating. Thank you. . . . I awoke this morning with a renewed sense of priority. Making money and growing the company . . . Thank you again for being a voice to be listened to in our business.

We have spent HOURS reading through your archived newsletters and articles tonight. You address many of the problems we’ve previously faced and it’s comforting to know you’ve been through it and have lived to tell the tale.

Over the past few years we’ve read your books and watched your online tutorials. You’ve changed our approach to the way we do business and we can’t thank you enough. It’s not easy in the construction industry and Markup & Profit has been like a bible for us.

Thanks for the information in your “revisited” book! After reading only a few chapters I have realized how much money I have been missing over the years! I can see how this book will revolutionize my business, it is truly an answer to my prayers!

I am currently taking your estimating course. I really appreciate the course. I am very young in the industry in terms of gaining business experience & greatly desire a firm foundation. Your course is a great alternative to university opportunities and costs!

We have found your website and your resources to be a wealth of information to us. We have been using your books and resources for many years and all our estimators are required to read your Profitable Sales Books.
