This Podcast Is Episode 637, And It's About Pillar 1: Marketing - Attracting The Right Construction Jobs A Guide for Small Construction Business Owners (from Your Bookkeeper's Point of View) As construction bookkeeping specialists, we spend a significant amount of time analyzing the numbers behind small construction businesses—everything from job costs to cash flow to profit margins. However, here's the truth most contractors don't hear enough: Your profitability starts before the job even begins. Yes, it starts with the jobs you say yes to—and more importantly, the ones you should start saying no to. In this post, we'll break down what it means to attract the right jobs, how doing so can transform your business, and what practical steps you can take today to stop chasing work that doesn't serve you. First, Why Most Contractors Struggle to Attract the Right Clients Small contractors often accept every job that comes their way, especially when they're just starting or concerned about cash flow. But this creates several problems: Low-paying work that barely covers your costs Clients who delay payment or constantly push scope boundaries Traveling too far for small, unprofitable jobs A lack of consistency in your portfolio and referrals If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. But this cycle drains your energy and your bank account. And it makes your bookkeeping a mess—because when job costs are unclear or inconsistent, it's hard to see which jobs made money and which didn't. The Right Job: What Does That Actually Mean? The "right" job looks a little different for every contractor, but here's a basic framework: You're qualified and equipped to do it well You can complete it profitably (based on your costs and ideal margin) It fits within your service area It aligns with the type of work you want to be known for The client respects your time and process When all five of these boxes are checked, it becomes easier to plan, price, and deliver the work, and you'll often get paid faster and with fewer headaches. Why Your Bookkeeper Cares About the Jobs You Choose From our side of the books, here's what we see when you start attracting better jobs: Cleaner job costing data, because each project has a clear scope and budget Healthier margins, because the client isn't nickel-and-diming you Improved cash flow, because payments come in on time More predictable expenses, so budgeting and forecasting become easier That provides a solid financial foundation to build upon. So, how do we make that shift? 6 Ways to Start Attracting Better Jobs   1. Define Your Niche Clearly Clients won't know what to hire you for unless you tell them—clearly and often. Specializing doesn't limit your options; it sharpens your value. Do you focus on bathrooms, decks, additions, or full remodels? Do you serve residential, commercial, or both types of clients? Are your ideal jobs $5,000 or $50,000? Once you define your sweet spot, you can market smarter and spend less time chasing the wrong leads. 2. Price Your Work with Confidence (Not Emotion) One of the biggest mistakes we see is pricing based on "what you think the client can afford" instead of what the job costs you. That's how good contractors end up underpaid and overworked. With proper job costing and an understanding of your overhead, you can create bids that are both competitive and profitable. And here's the kicker: high-quality clients don't just want the cheapest quote—they want clarity and professionalism. Pricing with confidence attracts better clients. 3. Professional Estimates and Invoicing = Trust Want to stand out from the competition without spending a dime on ads? Use detailed, easy-to-read estimates with clear line items Include terms, timelines, and payment schedules Send professional invoices on time, every time This builds trust right away—and clients are more likely to choose you over "Chuck in a truck," who scribbles an estimate on a notepad. 4. Use Photos, Reviews, and Referrals to Tell Your Story People hire those they trust. And in construction, trust is often built through: Before-and-after photos Client testimonials Word-of-mouth referrals If you're not already collecting these, make it part of your post-job checklist. Ask happy clients for a quick review or permission to take a photo of them. Share success stories on social media and your website. Your work speaks for itself—but only if people can see it. 5. Simplify Your Online Presence You don't need a fancy website to get found—you need: A Google Business Profile (with updated contact info and service area) A few recent photos and reviews A clear description of your services This makes it easy for local clients to find and trust you. We've seen contractors double their inquiries just from a well-maintained Google listing. 6. Pre-Qualify Your Leads Your time is valuable. Before driving out for a quote, ask a few key questions: What's the project timeline? What's your rough budget? Have you worked with contractors before? Is the property ready for work to begin? These questions help you avoid tire-kickers and focus on serious leads. How Bookkeeping Supports Better Marketing Decisions Once you've improved your lead quality and project fit, your bookkeeping data becomes a valuable asset. You'll start to see: Which types of projects are your most profitable Which areas or clients tend to pay faster What marketing sources bring the best leads This allows you to double down on what works—and stop wasting time and money on what doesn't. The Payoff: Less Stress, Better Clients, Stronger Business When you start attracting the right jobs: You waste less time quoting projects that go nowhere You gain consistency in your income and schedule Your financial reports become easier to understand and use You build a brand that clients want to refer and return to It's not about doing more—it's about doing smarter. Need Help Getting Clear on Your Numbers? If you're unsure what your ideal job actually costs—or how to price it for profit—we can help. As construction bookkeeping specialists, we don't just categorize expenses; we also ensure that they are accurately recorded and accounted for. We help you understand: Job costing Profit margins Overhead Cash flow So you can build with confidence and say yes only to the jobs that grow your business, not drain it.

The comfort foods we grew up with don't deserve their bad reputation. From cereal and hamburgers to mac and cheese and fried chicken, America's favorite dishes can actually be part of a balanced diet with some thoughtful modifications.Breakfast becomes a nutritional powerhouse when you add fresh fruit to cereal, use high-protein milk, or mix in fiber-rich options. Even the humble peanut butter and jelly sandwich – which University of Michigan researchers found adds more years to your life than almost any other food – proves that comfort and nutrition can coexist.Those classic hamburgers? They're already a balanced combination of protein, carbs, and fats – the problems come from preparation methods and proportions. By choosing leaner beef, whole grain buns, and generous vegetables, you transform fast food into real nutrition. The same goes for pizza, chili, and spaghetti with meatballs. These aren't inherently "bad" foods; they just need some rebalancing.The air fryer revolution has breathed new life into fried favorites. Chicken coated in cornflakes and air-fried delivers that satisfying crunch without excessive oil. Homemade french fries get crispy exteriors and soft interiors without deep-frying. Even simple swaps like mixing Greek yogurt with mayonnaise in potato salad maintain the creamy texture while improving the nutritional profile.American cuisine doesn't need to be abandoned for health – it just needs thoughtful modifications. Try our tuna mac and peas recipe with protein-enhanced pasta for a quick meal that satisfies comfort food cravings while delivering balanced nutrition.

On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with performance chef Aaron Clayton. Performance chefs are those who prepare nutritionally focused meals for athletes.    “We're there to make sure that they're able to perform on the field, the court, wherever it may be,” Clayton says.    When asked what regular people can do to eat healthier, Clayton says the easiest thing is to drink more water and cut out as much sugar from your diet as possible. Other ideas include looking for in-season produce, eating at consistent times, and not eating dinner right before bedtime.    Also, try to block off time to cook, so you remain connected to your cooking. The food will even taste better.   “If you're smelling the food throughout the process, if you're hearing the noises that it makes when you put it in the pan; these things are important,” he says. “Pay attention to these details; do not be distracted by your phone or [anything else]; try to make that time and space in the kitchen protected and sacred.”   Experimenting in the kitchen is also great for your mind, body, and soul.   “Anytime someone asks me what my favorite thing to cook is, I say, ‘Something new,'” Chef Clayton explains. “The process of learning helps you grow and develop so much, especially in the kitchen.”   Chef Aaron Clayton talks about his cooking origin story - and how he ended up on this career path, some of his favorite Jewish foods, and how he shares his heritage with some of his athletes. He also shares tips for “performance cooking,” details about the Athlete Meal Plan philanthropy, and his recipe for Mexican Fire-Roasted Shakshuka, which you can find at JewishJournal.com/podcasts.   Check out PerformanceChefs.org and AthleteMealPlan.org.

Transform your garden with powerful homemade fertilisers hiding in plain sight! This episode dives into the world of natural plant nutrition, answering listener Cian's question about nettle and comfrey teas.Discover why these humble "weeds" might be your garden's greatest untapped resource. Nettle tea, packed with nitrogen, creates remarkably resilient leafy growth with glossier, darker foliage that naturally resists pests and disease. Meanwhile, comfrey provides the potassium boost flowering and fruiting plants crave. Together, they form a complete natural feeding system that nurtures both plants and the vital soil ecosystem beneath them.You'll learn the simple process for creating these potent brews, when to apply each for maximum benefit, and how to recognise the subtle but significant differences between plants fed with natural fertilisers versus synthetic options. Beyond nettles and comfrey, we explore other free fertiliser sources you might be overlooking – from banana peels to grass clippings – and how the "chop and drop" method can build remarkable soil health with minimal effort.The underlying philosophy throughout is clear: feed the soil, not just the plant. When you nourish the complex web of life beneath your feet, it rewards you with stronger, healthier plants that require fewer interventions. Whether you're growing vegetables, flowers, or maintaining borders, these sustainable approaches deliver results while keeping your garden in harmony with nature.

After years of struggling with addiction, Scott made a radical shift—not just in his own life, but in how he runs his restaurants.

As I've gotten older, I've seen and felt the importance of maintaining a healthy, active lifestyle. Not only do you feel better in the present, but you prevent future health problems from messing with your quality of life. I truly believe enhancing your mind and body with proper fuel is essential to a healthy quality of life.  That's why I'm so excited to talk with Fitness Coach Michael Williams today. Michael is a certified personal trainer who specializes in women's fat loss. While there's so much more to being healthy than getting rid of body fat, a lot of the health and physical activity benefits will result in less fat! Michael and I are talking about the importance of prioritizing health for women, building healthier habits, and staying consistent with healthy living.   Here's a glance at this episode: [04:40] Michael always leads with “why”. What's your why for wanting to get in shape? Understanding that helps you stay on track. [12:43] Eating 1 or 2 meals a day doesn't cut it for women. Michael shares what women need to do to see the fat loss results they want. [24:50] YouTube can be a great resource for learning how to properly train and lift weights, especially if you're tight on funds. [31:40] Michael shares that the scale isn't the best indicator of progress, especially if weightlifting is involved. “The scale is a liar”. [51:20] You don't have to deprive yourself when you go out to eat, just do your best to plan your meals out as best as possible.   Rate, Review, & Follow: Did you love this episode?

Loneliness isn't just a feeling - it's a public health crisis. The number of hours we spend with friends is rapidly decreasing, more and more Americans report feeling lonely, and loneliness is linked to bad health outcomes like risk of premature death, heart disease, stroke, depression and anxiety. Kasley Killam, author of “The Art and Science and Connection”, joins us to talk about why social health should be the third pillar of wellness alongside physical and mental health.We discuss:The surprising finding that connected communities were more resilient during the COVID pandemicKasley's 100+ day experiment with acts of kindnessHow small investments in social health have big ripple effectsHer nuanced views on AI companionsKasley talks about how vulnerability is key to building trust and human connection:“When you share something a little vulnerable that goes beyond… surface level and small talk, that is like this magical way of deepening connections, right? It builds trust, it builds intimacy, it makes us relatable, it helps us get to know each other better. And so … there I am with a complete stranger who… I've maybe shared something on stage or in conversation, they're now sharing something really intimate and vulnerable about their life and that just creates this beautiful moment. ”Relevant LinksGrab Kasley's book “The Art and Science of Connection”See Kasley's TED talk: Why Social Health is Key to Happiness and LongevityGet more info on the APA poll on social connectionRead an Article on Kasley's 108-day experiment with acts of kindnessRead the Surgeon General's advisory on loneliness as a pandemicSee this Article on Scan Health Plan's “Togetherness” programAbout Our GuestKasley Killam is a leading expert in social health and author of The Art and Science of Connection: Why Social Health is the Missing Key to Living Longer, Healthier, and Happier.

Story at-a-glance Both synthetic and "natural" chewing gums release hundreds to thousands of microplastic particles per piece, with an average person ingesting 30,000 microplastics annually from gum alone Chewing gum is a "parafunctional" activity that causes or worsens TMJ disorders, leading to jaw pain, headaches and even tooth fractures with prolonged use While gum increases saliva production, which helps neutralize acids and reduce cavity risk, this benefit doesn't outweigh the risks of plastic ingestion and jaw strain Researchers found that 94% of microplastic particles detach within the first eight minutes of chewing, suggesting even brief gum use significantly increases plastic exposure Healthier alternatives include sipping water, oil pulling with coconut oil, using tongue scrapers or chewing fresh ginger for breath freshening without the harmful effects

This is Sara, and I remember the time 20 years ago when I got schooled by a psychoanalyst.  It must have been the fall, because I was supremely agitated that I was having to write, design, and send holiday cards out to a huge list of people all by myself, without the help of my fiancé.  If you know me, you know that cards were a staple of my winter growing up, with cards from my parents' friends stapled onto long felt ribbons hanging down each doorway, surrounding us with love and smiling faces for weeks on end.  The therapist asked if I could just not do them, if it was annoying me so much, and my instant fury was revealed: Are you kidding? I have to send these cards out, it's the nice thing to do!!  Cut to the point, and it's this - nice according to who?  Nice for whom?  Certainly not nice for me if I were going to be resentful and pissy about it.  I came to terms with the fact that I actually just really enjoyed writing and sending cards out to people who warmed my heart that year, and that my partner wasn't a nice person for not agreeing to send these cards out with me.   But it leads us to ask this.  What do we mean by niceness - and what, more importantly, is its not-as-related-as-it-seems and so much more important character trait of kindness?  How can understanding this difference and leaning into kindness help us be better people?   What to listen for: How a medically trained doctor got into a “touchy-feely” thing like kindness The shockingly tremendous impact that kindness has on our individual health and our societal wellbeing What's the difference between niceness vs kindness?  Ways to begin practicing more kindness About our guest:   Kelli Harding, MD, MPH, is dedicated to creating a kinder and healthier world for all. An expert in mental health, medicine, and public health, she teaches at Columbia University's Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons (VP&S) in New York City and is a diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, also boarded in the sub-specialty of consultation-liaison psychiatry or psychosomatic (mind-body) medicine. Known for making complex scientific research understandable to general audiences, she's the author of the critically acclaimed book The Rabbit Effect: Live Longer, Happier, and Healthier with the Groundbreaking Science of Kindness. Dr. Harding has appeared on Today, Good Morning America, BBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Prevention, LA Times, Oprah Magazine, Parents, Medscape, Sesame Street Workshop, and The World Economic Forum. Additionally, she has spoken at global events at the United Nations and World Happiness Summits and served on the Boards of Organizations such as the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and social media platform Nextdoor. Dr. Harding lives in New York City with her husband and three sons—an eleventh-grader, a ninth-grader, and a sixth-grader, and beloved rescue pup, Athena.
