We got quoted $124k to finish out our 900 sqft walk up attic.
It’s a fair price for what we want, from a general contractor friend I trust.
We’re instead using ChatGPT to coach us and sub out all the work ourselves.
The subs we’ve chosen have us at about $67k for the same work.
Here’s the problem with cost+ agreements: The general contractor isn’t incentivized to quote out each job from 5-15 guys to get the best price.
He just needs a decent sub, and then he marks that up 20%.
So it’s a double whammy. You pay inflated subs’ cost plus 20%.
I told my friend beforehand I might go this route btw.
The rough plumbing went in this week. I’m sure we’ll go over budget, but that’s to be expected. There’s a big gap between 67k and 124k.
We’re also paying another 3rd party to inspect every stage along the way.
Please leave some negative comments below to put a chip on my shoulder to ensure this project goes perfectly.
I’ll return and report.

The decibels of that “O” fed families last night. How @peanutpollino kept her concentration is beyond me.

My close rate has never been higher from Angi and landing pages… in fact, over the past three months, we have captured an additional $27,282 in revenue that would’ve been lost
Here’s how:
Every lead source that we use is directly attached to different optimized workflows
You’re probably asking yourself what that means… let me use an example
Joe Smith has a five bedroom four bathroom house that he wants cleaned bi-weekly
He submits a form on Angi that gets sent to us… and 10 other cleaning companies in the area.
We have learned that speed to lead is how you win in this game, so we have to use technology to help us win
Joe is going to receive a custom email, text message, and voicemail all within two minutes of submitting his form. Is anyone else doing this? Nope
Those that are fast may respond in 15-30 minutes, but by that time Joe is already signed up for an initial deep cleaning and bi-weekly standard cleaning
Being first allows you to sell the client on why you are the best in the game, and the features that set you apart, rather than being commoditized and racing to the bottom on price
If you are interested in seeing a tutorial of how this works, comment CLOSE and I will send over a video guide of exactly how it’s done

Happy 18th Birthday Mo! You’re missed more than you know. Not a day passes where me and everyone else isn’t thinking about you. You’d love the run the Ravens and Orioles are on, wish you were here for it all. Miss you buddy.
