I should learn to run some roof repair and roof covering ads this week :) Emergency calls are going to be wild
Southern California is about to have one of its wettest Christmas weeks ever. Los Angeles is forecast to see 6.4 inches of rain from Dec 23–27, which would be the wettest such period in city history. Santa Barbara may reach its entire annual rainfall total by New Year’s.

If you are in PE, bought a trade business in So Cal with no operational know how and are over your head... DMs open
Agree with this, obviously, as [a former] operations-focused CEO of PE-backed platforms. 🙂 The days of smashing together and betting on expansion as the primary source of returns….while may still be there….are dwindling. If you can’t operate….there is a greater likelihood

Let me say the quite part out loud - 99.8% of all cash (and there is a lot of it) in the construction trades goes into the owners pocket How do you think all those toys get paid for? Noble not to accept cash - but cash discounts is actually the norm in real life I dont make
We don't accept cash Requires delivery to office Necessary for more internal controls & chain of custody tracking Then you have to deposit cash… in person it gets "lost" We stopped accepting cash from customers in 2023.
