Discovering Where Your Profit Actually Goes
Problem
Most contractors in Houston have no idea what their jobs actually cost. They think they're making 15% or more per job, but the actual number is closer to 3%. The profit is disappearing somewhere, but where?
Outcome
You'll learn how to identify your specific profit leaks, understand what you're actually spending (vs. what you think you're spending), and see exactly where the money goes in YOUR business.
The Aspire Difference
This isn't about raising prices across the board. It's about understanding your true costs so you can make informed decisions about pricing, project selection, and where to focus improvement efforts in your specific operation.
Building a Business Model That Achieves YOUR Goals
Problem
You're taking every job that comes your way, working 70-hour weeks, and still barely breaking even. There's no strategy, just constant reaction to whatever opportunity appears next.
Outcome
You'll discover how to evaluate which types of work in the Houston market actually serve your business goals, how to structure your services to deliver better client outcomes, and how to build systems that support the life you actually want.
The Aspire Difference
We help you design a business model around YOUR priorities to reach YOUR goals; whether that's more time with family, higher profit per project, building a sellable company, or something else entirely. One size doesn't fit all.
Attracting The Right Clients Who Value Your Expertise
Problem
You're competing in multiple-bid situations against Houston contractors who undercut you on price. When clients can't clearly see the difference between you and the low-bidder, price becomes the only factor.
Outcome
You'll learn how to position your business so the right clients seek you out, how to differentiate based on your actual strengths, and how to have conversations that highlight value beyond just the price tag.
The Aspire Difference
This focuses on attracting clients whose values and needs align with your values and expertise. When there's genuine alignment, price becomes less important than trust, approach, and shared priorities.
Problem
Portland's labor market is one of the most expensive in the Pacific Northwest. Most remodelers and home builders know their hourly wage lines — but the fully loaded cost of keeping a field employee is often 30 to 40 percent higher than that number alone, and the difference rarely shows up accurately in estimates.
Outcome
The workshop covers exactly what goes into a fully burdened labor rate — taxes, benefits, insurance, and more — and how to build that real number into every bid so you're not absorbing those costs out of your margin.
Aspire Difference
Aspire's Labor Burden Calculator breaks down the true cost of every person on your roster — not a national average, but the numbers tied to your specific payroll structure — so you know what it costs you to put someone on a Portland jobsite before the bid goes out.
