Aspire information is on point and timely, they deliver exactly as advertised

I highly recommend this workshop to anyone in a business role within the construction industry. I've attended twice and gained incredibly valuable insights each time. I’m now planning to enroll in the full program. Aspire is an excellent resource for those without a formal business background who want to succeed in their role. I’ve already referred two friends to the workshop, knowing they’ll benefit from it as well—whether they choose to invest in the full program or just attend the workshop. Fred Farris has also been really great about staying in touch, following up, and offering mentorship and support in areas where I’ve needed a bit of extra help as a relatively new business owner. Even though I haven’t officially started his program yet, that kind of genuine care and commitment to my success has really stood out—and I think it speaks volumes about the kind of people behind Aspire. I’m excited to take the next step and get started!

To be honest, I was hesitant to take time out of my work week to attend the Workshop. I decided to go because I believe any chance to learn something from someone else is worth it. In the end, its was well worth it; I learned several ways to improve my business and many things to work on. Fred followed up personally with a well-planned and thoughtful one-on-one meeting with tools he sent beforehand and even more to think about to help me improve. I highly recommend attending.

Fred was knowledgeable and very helpful with construction industry challenges. If you need help to move your business forward, this would be a great team to consider working with.

This was the most informative and comprehensive presentation I have attended. I will be working with Fred and his team, they are the most honest group I have encountered.

I just attended an Aspire Institute workshop with Fred Farris. I was anticipating it to be an interesting and informative workshop but it turned out to be so much more than that. Fred, CEO of The Aspire Institute, is a skilled seminar leader, very personable, attentive to his audience and quite frankly, brilliant at what he does. He proved to be extraordinarily knowledgeable about all phases of the remodeling and construction industry. In fact, there does not appear to be any segment of the industry that he is not familiar with and can address regarding the multi-faceted, challenging and complex issues remodeling contractors and home builders face on a daily basis. I have found that often times those of us who have been in this business a long time and have achieved a certain level of success in our field still struggle with marketing, positioning and differentiating ourselves and our business, which prevents us from rising higher and achieving even more success. Going into this seminar I really thought that I had figured out exactly what I needed to do to rise to the next level in my remodeling business and that Fred's seminar would give me a few additional "tips" on how to get from "here" to "there" - but I was wrong. Fred Farris's Aspire seminar for GC's went way beyond what I imagined would be presented. I had no idea he would go into so much detail, (critically important detail), about profit margins, marketing strategies, business models, KPI Mapping, targeted lead generation and much, much more. During his presentation I noticed others around me (as well as myself) jotting down notes furiously, trying to keep up. Bottom line, the Aspire Institute's seminar on "Where GC Profit Actually Comes From" is unlike any other seminar out there. It is revolutionary. It is mind-expanding. It is a master's level course for GC's on financial management, marketing systems and professional positioning - on steroids. I wish I would have known about and attended this business seminar years ago. If I had, I would most likely be a multi-millionaire by now and long retired.

Great workshop! I highly recommend. Get your business under control.

Great people with fantastic wealth of knowledge motivated to raise the bar for the industry as a whole. If you take your success seriously spending time with Aspire is well worth it!
