The Financial Literacy Masterclass Every Contractor Needs | Ellen Rohr
About this episode
Most contractors don't have a fraud problem. They have a messy books problem. And it's quietly costing them sleep, options, and profit.
In this episode of Can't Stop the Growth, Chad Peterman sits down with Ellen Rohr, the trades industry's go-to voice on financial literacy. Ellen married a plumber named Hot Rod, nearly went broke running their shop, learned to read a P&L off a fax machine from mentor Frank Blau, and went on to help build Benjamin Franklin Plumbing and co-found Zoom Drain. Her whole message: the numbers aren't the scary part of the business. They're the scoreboard, and anyone can learn to keep score.
Whether your books are a hot mess or you're just tired of guessing, this is the financial gut-check every home service owner needs.
