In this episode of New Frontiers, host Paul Johnson is joined by economist Elliott Pollack, columnist Bob Robb, and professor Henry Thompson to explore one of America's most urgent issues: housing affordability. Together, they dig into how city zoning laws, regulatory delays, and supply constraints have fueled a housing crisis – and why homelessness, economic stagnation, and unaffordability are all symptoms of a deeper policy failure.Through compelling analysis, real-world examples, and expert commentary, the panel discusses Arizona's unique housing landscape and how it reflects national trends. With bipartisan legislative efforts gaining momentum, the episode explores whether change can happen at the city level – or if it must come from the state legislature to break through entrenched local resistance.Topics Discussed in This Video:- The Economic Truth About Supply and Demand: The panel dissects the basic economic principle that more housing supply leads to lower costs—and why some skeptics still resist this truth despite overwhelming data.- Zoning and Regulation: A Hidden Driver of the Crisis: Learn how local zoning restrictions, permitting delays, and aesthetic requirements are choking supply and pushing costs up—impacting everyone from essential workers to young families.- Homelessness: A Housing Problem?: The guests discuss research suggesting that a shortage of available homes, not just mental health or substance abuse, is a major driver of homelessness—and why a broader supply strategy may be the only scalable solution.- Who Holds the Power to Fix This?: While cities often resist reforms, the Arizona legislature has begun considering powerful, bipartisan measures to free the housing market. Will they succeed where local governments have stalled?- The Case for Home Ownership: Beyond economics, the panel emphasizes the social and cultural value of home ownership, showing how it can create financial stability, family roots, and long-term opportunity.

This Podcast Is Episode 615, And It's About Valuation Beyond Numbers: Enhancing Your Construction Business Worth When valuing a business, most people think straightforwardly about profits. While financial success is undoubtedly critical, it's far from the only factor determining a business's actual worth. Understanding valuation complexities can offer small business owners and entrepreneurs a clear roadmap for sustainable growth and long-term success.   While financial metrics are undoubtedly important, they do not provide a complete picture of a construction company's worth. For contractors and builders, understanding the nuances of business valuation can pave the way for sustainable growth, effective investments, and successful transitions, whether selling the business or attracting stakeholders.   Here is a fresh perspective on what makes a business truly valuable. We'll discuss traditional valuation metrics, the non-financial factors influencing worth, and practical strategies to enhance value.    The Importance of Business Valuation Business valuation isn't just for companies preparing for sale or investment. It's a powerful tool that helps you understand your business's health and identify areas for improvement. A valuation gives you insight into whether your construction business is structured for long-term sustainability or is at risk of operational inefficiencies, market challenges, or other pitfalls. Think of it this way: knowing your business's valuation is like running a health check. It gives you a snapshot of financial health, considers external factors, and ensures your company is ready to tackle challenges or opportunities that come your way. If valuation isn't already part of your business planning, it's time to make it one. Traditional Valuation Metrics Traditionally, business valuation has relied heavily on financial metrics. Two commonly known approaches include: Earnings multipliers This method involves multiplying a business's annual revenue or profits by a standard industry-specific figure. Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis DCF looks at a business's projected future cash flows and discounts them to present value, providing an estimate that accounts for risk and time. While highly detailed, this method depends heavily on accurate forecasts. These approaches are undoubtedly helpful but don't tell the whole story. A construction business can be profitable yet fail to secure a high valuation due to overlooked non-financial factors. Beyond Profits: The non-financial factors that matter While profits are essential, they're only the beginning of the valuation equation. Non-financial factors can significantly influence how much your business is worth: 1. Market Demand and Competitive Landscape  It's not just about how much profit you generate today—it's about your position in the market. Is the demand for your product or service growing, or is the market becoming saturated? Are competitors innovating faster than you? A future-proof business consistently assesses market trends and adapts to stay relevant. Pro Tip: Conduct regular SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis to understand your edge in the market. 2. Operational Risks  Operational risks can make the most profitable contracting business unattractive to potential buyers or investors. For example: Does the business rely heavily on an individual owner, a single key employee, or one major customer?  Are there documented systems and processes, or does the business suffer from inefficiencies?  Think of these risks as red flags that could threaten scalability and sustainability. 3. Reputation and Brand Image  Your brand's reputation isn't just about avoiding bad press—it's a key driver of trust among customers, clients, and partners. Businesses with a loyal customer base and a positive reputation often command higher valuations. Real-Life Example: A one-person remodeling company with a loyal local following may receive a higher valuation than a larger one with profits but poor customer reviews. 4. Innovation and Adaptability  How well does your business innovate? Construction businesses that embrace new technologies and methods are typically more resilient. Failure to adapt to changing technologies or market dynamics can cause even profitable enterprises to stall. Businesses that thrive on creativity invest in Research and Development, are ahead of the curve, and demonstrate resilience, which adds immense value during valuation. Key Question: Is your company actively curious about emerging trends and technologies?  5. Legal and Regulatory Compliance  Compliance isn't just about avoiding lawsuits—it's about showing that your business operates responsibly. Construction companies must comply with a myriad of regulations. A solid compliance record can improve a company's valuation by reducing risks related to potential lawsuits or fines. Demonstrating responsible operations assures buyers that your business is trustworthy. 6. Team Strength and Cohesion  The quality and stability of your workforce can influence valuation. A skilled, experienced, and well-coordinated team enhances productivity and project delivery, making the business more attractive to potential investors or buyers. High employee turnover can signal underlying issues and be a red flag to prospective investors. Warning Sign: Frequent employee turnover can signal a toxic workplace culture, directly impacting valuation. Strategies for maximizing business value To increase valuation, focus on both profitability and these often-overlooked factors: Diversify revenue streams: Reduce reliance on a single product, service, or client to decrease operational risk.  Document processes: Streamline workflows and document systems to make the business more scalable. Build a lasting brand: Invest in customer experience, brand identity, and online presence. A strong brand pays dividends in terms of valuation. Foster a strong team: To retain top talent, provide training, career development opportunities, and a positive workplace culture. Stay innovative: Review and refine your business model regularly to meet changing market needs. The role of innovation, compliance, and team strength True innovation, regulatory compliance, and a skilled team create a synergy that elevates your business value. These three pillars foster trust and sustainability: Innovation keeps you competitive. Compliance helps avoid costly legal issues. Team strength ensures the knowledge and talent needed for long-term growth. Final thoughts Unlock your business's actual value. Valuing a construction business encompasses much more than simply analyzing profits. To truly understand your company's worth, consider financial and non-financial factors. Focusing on market position, operational efficiency, and innovation can enhance your company's valuation and ensure long-term success in the competitive construction industry. Valuing a business is never just about profits. Understanding traditional metrics and exploring non-financial factors can position you for long-term success. Whether you're gearing up to sell or want to ensure your construction business thrives, a balanced approach is key. Want advice to boost your business value? Contact us.

Join us as we embark on an inspiring journey through the origins and growth of the Midwest Elderberry Cooperative with our guest, Chris Patton. Discover how his passion for sustainable agriculture was ignited at the Moses Conference in 2011, leading him to explore the untapped potential of American elderberry as a commercial crop. Alongside experienced farmer Paul Otten, Chris formed the cooperative to cultivate and distribute elderberries, providing support to small businesses and fostering a thriving local foods movement.

Change is hard, but the truth is—when you resist it, you're making a choice.An even harsher truth? Staying in your comfort zone is the reason your business isn't growing. You're stuck because you keep doing the same things, expecting different results. That's the definition of insanity—and it's killing your growth.And keep in mind, "staying in your comfort zone" can manifest in ways you might not even realize. Micromanaging. Refusing to delegate.

Growth isn't easy, but neither is staying stagnant. If you're serious about scaling your business, this is your wake-up call. Step out of the comfort zone. Embrace the chaos. Make bold moves. Growth doesn't happen where it's safe, it happens when you face the uncomfortable truth and take action.In this episode of iDigress, we dive deep into the uncomfortable reality of why many entrepreneurs, leaders, and creatives stay stuck. We'll explore the powerful concept of "what you're not changing, you're choosing" and unpack how resistance to change often stems from fear, comfort, or denial.• Why clarity is the first step to escaping chaos.• The dangers of staying in your comfort zone.• How to recognize when it's time to pivot.•  Why embracing change (quickly) is necessary for business success.• How to stop being a "control freak" and get out of the way of growth.• Why successful execution requires humility and adaptability. Beyond The Episode Gems:• Grow Your Business Faster Using HubSpot's CRM Platform• Use The Same Recording Platform I Use For My Podcast, Try Riverside.fm For Free• Buy Troy's Book, Strategize Up That Is Referenced In This Episode: StrategizeUpBook.com• Discover All Podcasts On The HubSpot Podcast Network#####Support The Podcast & Connect With Troy: • Rate & Review iDigress: iDigress.fm/Reviews•  Follow Troy's LinkedIn @FindTroy• Need Growth Strategy, A Keynote Speaker, Or Want To Sponsor The Podcast?
