I’ve been considering getting a controller for the roofing business who controls the finances and all decisions must be approved by this individual. Their entire job would be tracking and approving spend.

Weekends seems to be the best time to meet a husband and wife to make a large home services sale. My sales people want open weekends. This seems like a big missed opportunity.

It's only in CA where the exclusion of a county coverage page results in a 10% penalty fee! Egregious money grab. Great work, Sacramento County. Let's make it even less appealing to operate in CA.

The longer I’m a CFO, the more I prefer the benefits of @AmericanExpress over any other corporate card. Lounge access and benefits galore. Multiple cadences allowed to pay including daily payment of account balance. Seamless integration with my ERP. Sure, the annual fee is…

More on the @justcall_io issues. They charged us tonight during the port-out process. They know full well that this process takes 10-15 days. I requested on recorded calls-that I also recorded-for them not to charge us again during this porting process, to which they agreed.…

The first year in business is all about learning and getting to product-market fit. Beyond that is about growth and improving unit economics over time. At the roofer, we now have the hang of this and are expecting rapid growth over the next year. This is in addition to the…

What has been the single greatest amplifier of your ability to get things done? Did you hire a VA? Bring someone on internally? Leverage AI? I feel like I'm constantly stuck in an endless loop of putting out fires or checking off a never-ending list of minor back-office tasks.

COO doesn’t answer calls or texts for a permit he was supposed to pull last week. I’m scrambling to get it taken care of. We have a disgruntled customer that he is supposed to meet tomorrow, and he hasn’t confirmed if he is going to the meeting. Does he get fired?

4 people on our installation crew took 7 hours of PTO to get more hours on their weekly paycheck. These are the same guys who drag ass on jobs to get more hours and then wonder why we can’t get 2-3 roofs done in a week. I also wonder if they think I’m not tracking their PTO…

NYC airport experience is an absolute shit show. Just flew into #jfk with a baby and luggage only to be told that I need to take a train to Howard Beach to then catch an Uber or Lyft. I guess this is how you keep yellow cab in business.
