Equips startup contractors with the tools to build resilient infrastructure in the construction industry

For construction professionals starting their businesses, success depends on more than just skill and dedication. Mastering the Construction Startup provides an essential blueprint for creating the foundational infrastructure every contractor needs to achieve sustainable growth and upon which every strategic decision will be made. Written by industry expert Nick B.

Grounded in decades of general contracting experience and research, each concise and accessible chapter breaks down the key components of sustainable success, such as such as identifying elements of a solid legal and financial base, establishing relationships with essential professionals, and creating a culture that attracts and retains the best talent. Throughout the book, Ganaway, often engaging directly with the reader, offers expert insights on everything from the role of the contractor to elements of leadership to advantages of niche contracting.
