In this episode of the Contractor Growth Network podcast, Logan Shinholser sits down with Kyle Hunt, remodeling business coach and founder of Remodelers on the Rise. Kyle breaks down his signature "Remodelers Roadmap"—a six-system framework designed to simplify and strengthen every core aspect of a remodeling business. From financials and marketing to people and operations, Kyle shares actionable advice and mindset shifts that help remodelers move from chaos to clarity in their business strategy. Key Takeaways: Start with Strong Financials Kyle emphasizes that a healthy remodeling business begins with financial clarity: Understand job costing, gross vs. net profit, and pricing strategy. Establish a solid financial foundation to support sustainable growth. Avoid burnout by making your business serve your life—not the other way around. Marketing Isn't Optional—It's the Engine Kyle shares how too many remodelers treat marketing like a side task instead of a strategic priority: Every business owner must be a student of marketing—even if they're not executing it directly. Build a clear marketing plan and pair it with a defined budget. Track lead sources consistently to make data-backed decisions. Sales Requires a Repeatable Process A wishy-washy sales approach leaves clients confused and kills conversion: Define your “This is how we work” process in 3–5 clear steps. Display your sales process on your website and reinforce it in person. Charging for design becomes easier when clients understand the value and flow. Production Is About More Than the Build Kyle urges remodelers to elevate the client experience from day one on the job site: Pre-construction meetings are essential to set expectations and avoid surprises. A systematic “final 5%” process ensures projects end as strong as they start. Communication, cleanliness, and consistency are critical soft skills on the job. Your People System Drives Your Success The quality of your remodeling business is directly tied to the quality of your team: Empower team members with 1-on-1s, leadership development, and capacity checks. Great leaders create space for others to lead—inside and outside their roles. “Your people are more important than your profit margin.” Operations Aren't Just Software—They're Structure Behind-the-scenes systems create forward momentum: Use software to track jobs, log daily updates, and align estimating with accounting. Establish a meeting cadence with clear agendas, action steps, and timekeeping. Effective meetings are a business unlock—and a leadership responsibility. Memorable Quotes: “If you're wondering why your remodeling business feels so hard—it's because it is hard.” “Don't try to implement five things halfway. Pick one thing and really implement it.” “The quality of your remodeling business will never outpace the quality of your people.” Actionable Advice: Identify Your Starting Line: Before tackling all six systems, get clear on time management, pricing, and financial health. Document Your Sales Process: Put it in writing, share it online, and walk clients through it every time. Run Better Meetings: Prepare agendas, assign timekeepers, and prioritize action over updates. Track Marketing Sources: Don't just “feel” like something works—measure it. Choose the Next Right Thing: Focus on one area, implement fully, and move forward with momentum.

Matt and his business partner, Tim Hill, dive deep into the realities of profitability in the construction industry. Recorded in the brand-new Risinger Build studio, Matt & Tim share a candid conversation about the challenges general contractors, home builders, and remodelers face when it comes to profit margins, client expectations, and project planning. Despite the common misconception that builders are highly profitable, they reveal that average net profits hover around just 5–6%. This low margin—combined with high risk—requires smart planning, detailed pre-construction processes, and disciplined financial management to ensure long-term sustainability.Matt and Tim stress the importance of transparency in pricing and standing firm on realistic budgets, even if it risks losing a job. They warn against chasing "portfolio projects" that look good on paper but lead to financial losses and client frustration. A major theme is the need for builders to carefully align with clients, architects, and budgets before contracts are signed to avoid scope creep and misaligned expectations.Not only do Matt & Tim discuss the “what” and the “why” of profit margins but also share the “how” to manage profit and loss statements effectively, including separating direct costs, indirect costs, and overhead.Thank you to episode sponsor Arclin!

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Geeta Narlikar from UCSF about her work on chromatin remodeling, Heterochromatin Protein 1, and the molecular mechanisms that influence the genome. The conversation starts with a pivotal paper from the early days of Dr. Narlikars research career, titled "Distinct Strategies to Make Nucleosomal DNA Accessible," focused on two ATP-dependent remodelers, BRG1 and SNF2H. Here, she notes that while both enzymes operate similarly, they generate different outputs and play distinct biological roles within the cell. The research revealed that BRG1 is more aggressive in altering nucleosome configuration, aligning with its role in transcription activation, while SNF2H showed a more refined approach in the formation of heterochromatin. Transitioning to her work at UCSF, she emphasized the importance of collaboration and mentoring within a research group. Her focus then shifted towards the ACF ATP-dependent chromatin assembly factor, hypothesizing how ACF measures nucleosome distance—an inquiry that led to exciting insights regarding dynamic enzyme behavior. This includes findings that ACF operates not through a static ruler mechanism but rather through a kinetic mechanism, thus continuously adjusting nucleosome positioning based on DNA length during chromatin assembly. Dr. Narlikar also delved into her studies on heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1), highlighting how HP1 recognizes methylation marks and assembles on chromatin to facilitate gene silencing. This segment of the discussion underscored her shift to studying phase separation and its implications in the organization of chromatin. Notably, her lab made significant advancements in understanding how HP1 forms phase-separated droplets, a finding that was independently corroborated by other laboratories, demonstrating the utility of collaborative scientific inquiry. In discussing the nuances of chromatin dynamics, Dr. Narlikar also introduced her investigations into the INO80 complex, detailing its distinct mechanism for nucleosome movement compared to other remodelers. Each remodeling complex, as she elucidated, has unique catalytic capabilities while still utilizing similar biochemical foundations, highlighting the diverse regulatory roles these proteins play within cells.   References Racki LR, Yang JG, Naber N, Partensky PD, Acevedo A, Purcell TJ, Cooke R, Cheng Y, Narlikar GJ.
