How do you define best value? With #RolfTheRoofingGuy

How do you define best value?
In speaking with Building Owners, I’ve found several common themes, they are:
· Unhappy that their roofs didn’t last as long as expected,
· Frustrated because the contractor wasn’t a good fit for the project,
· Concerned about safety incidents or accidents during execution.
There was always one common thread: They hired Low Bidder.

Life is about priorities, should there be other considerations besides being the low bid?
Let’s look at our personal lives as a comparison, how do we make decisions there?

Healthy Groceries: $100 – Too Expensive
Dinner Date: $100 – Reasonable

Health Supplements: $100—Unaffordable
Night out: $100—Every Week

Start Business: $1000—Can’t justify that.
New iPhone: $1000—Have to have it.

1 hour at Gym: Don’t have the time.
1 hour TV: Let’s watch the next show too.

Life is about priorities after all, isn’t it?
The question then becomes: does it make more sense to have early engagement, and to select the contractor who is most Qualified and can provide best Value?

Your time is valuable too.

Would your time be better spent running your core business rather than wasting time with the bad-fit contractor?

If this resonated with you and you’d like to set up a conversation, let me know.
