Sound Familiar?
These aren't hypothetical scenarios. They're happening to general contracting contractors every day.
Homeowner emails about a full kitchen remodel at 7 PM.
You see it the next morning. Two competitors already scheduled consultations.
You sent a $85K addition quote three weeks ago. No response.
You meant to follow up. Got busy with active projects. Customer signed with someone else.
Subcontractor calls with a question about Thursday's job.
You're in a client meeting. They call three times. You finally connect at 5 PM. Issue could've been solved at 9 AM.
Past client from 3 years ago is ready for Phase 2 of their renovation.
They don't have your number. They Google 'general contractor near me' and call someone new.
Commercial tenant improvement RFP deadline is Friday. You find out Wednesday.
Not enough time to put together a competitive bid. Opportunity lost.
