Contractors Hiring Blueprint
Make you're next hire your best one yet - 
Use these tools and never make another bad hire!
Are you tired of struggling to find good employees?
Maybe you're thinking....
  • There just aren't any qualified people out there to hire, they already have a job...
  • All the highly skilled people want to work for a bigger company with better pay and benefits...
  • ​Even though my current team isn't the best, at least I know what I have...
Imagine if you could...
  • Have new and creative ways of expanding your reach in recruiting, and attract more A-player candidates.
  • See how highly skilled people would love to work with a company where their expertise can shine.
  • ​Have great people calling YOU for a job, and never have to settle for B players again!
  • It would be great to know the secret to finding and hiring great people” 
  •  “I’m tired of having people who can’t do the job I hired them for” 
  • “Our staff turnover is costing us a fortune” 
The Contractors Hiring Blueprint is designed to help you be effective in recruiting, and hiring so you can build a team of highly skilled and qualified employees who do a great job!
This course was developed as a way to overcome my own challenges as a leader, and for over 25 years I’ve helped hundreds of contractors learn to recruit and hire great employees using this system. 

As a result, they know how to find and hire A-players, and they've built teams that are skilled, competent, and take ownership.  AND YOU CAN TOO!

This course is broken up into sections that cover each part of recruiting needed in your business to be successful. It's grouped into sections on how to find recruit, screen, interview, and onboard new team members. 

Along with the videos, get checklists, processes, templates, and interview questions that will help you find your next great hire before the next project starts!

I Put in Half the Time I Used To

Before I met Vicki, I was working out of my house with part-time help. I was routinely putting in 80-100 hours a week on my business. I didn’t have time to do other things I enjoy, and I was exhausted and unhappy. Vicki helped me put the systems and people I needed in place to sustain and grow my business. Now, I put in half the time I used to and get much more done, and make way more money.

How to be More Strategic

With no real business background, we had become accustomed to basing business decisions on our intuition. Our guesses were pretty good. But as we grew, we realized that keeping things running was harder than it had to be. Vicki showed us how to plan on budget, explained what our numbers are telling us, and showed us how we could be more strategic in how we spend our time and our money.
