In 2025, there is one issue contractors talk to me about more than any other:
Hiring.
Getting good people to agree to—and show up to—an interview suddenly seems impossible.
You book five interviews and three no-show, one thinks they’re applying to be CEO and the other shows up drunk.
After conducting over 2,400 interviews for trades positions myself, I know the struggle.
That’s why I hosted a web class last month where I taught hundreds of contractors my system for attracting A-players and replacing time-wasters during the recruitment process.
We decided to release it on the podcast as a BONUS episode so more contractors can benefit.
Enjoy.
Episode Highlights:
- Learn why creating a hiring funnel is just as important as creating a sales funnel.
- Understand how to write job ads that actually attract the people you WANT.
- Get the winning interview strategy Danny refined while interviewing over 2,400 people for trades positions.
