Roofer Show

Dave Sullivan

Welcome to the 200th episode of The Roofer Show! I’ll be sharing the best of the best takeaways on how you can run a more profitable roofing business.

I’m bringing you a Top 10 list that I’ve culled from all of my previous interviews with experts, my own 30 years of experience, my years of coaching other contractors and listening to the mistakes they have made, and by watching my competitors make mistakes.

Thank you for hanging in there with me and helping to make this podcast a success, and I hope, as you listen, that you’ll discover tangible tips that you can put to use that will help get you to your business vision.
