Speaker 1 (00:00): General contractors Baton Rouge this episode is great to check your current business framework against.
<Silence>
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Hey, welcome back to the K-Cup episode 15. We’re excited to be here today. Hope you are too. We got some great information for you. Today. We’re calling this episode Lead Gen to Project Completion, the business of being a general Contractor. So, what we’re gonna do this week is we, this is a five part series that we’re gonna do, but we’re gonna give you the whole framework today, all five parts. We’re gonna touch the highlights of these five parts. John’s gonna explain how this process you know, unfolds from lead generation to project delivery and follow up at the end of the whole process. So, we’re excited about this. We think with the the series, the five part series following this framework, episode is gonna be great for you if you are into being a contractor, whether it’s residential or commercial even if you’re just into business, this kind of framework still is really about client acquisition and how to manage a client, how to take them from being a lead, and developing that lead into a client that you’re gonna do business with. General contractors Baton Rouge this five part series is going to help you refine your framework for everything from lead gen to project delivery.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
And hopefully, if you do business with them well you’re gonna have a return client that’s gonna come back and, and continue to be part of your business ecosystem. So it’s gonna be a great show. Please stay tuned and check it out. So, John, let’s go ahead and and dive right into this. Let’s go into part one. Part one’s about business development and client acquisition. So maybe you can hit some highlights there about what we’d be looking for in this part.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Okay, yeah. So what that looks like here at Kelly Construction is one we, we lar we lean into referrals. I mean, obviously everybody does, but referrals is something that we kinda got started on referrals, if you will, but as a young company or a new company, it really is not a ton of referral sources because you haven’t done a lot of work. Sure. But, you know, fortunately early on, I can think of a few people who, who had a little bit of confidence in me or, or just wanted to help me get going. And, you know, I was able to get started on referrals, honestly. Yeah. you know, the first real construction job that I ever did. And when I say real construction, I mean in the whole permitting inspections, yada, yada, yada. Yeah. Everybody has to be licensed. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
You know, that came off of a referral that came off of a referral <laugh>, and you know, that’s kind of how I got started. And so referrals have been a big part of our business. Mm-Hmm <affirmative>. They still continue to be. So, yes. And, and obviously that’s grown through the years, right. Because early on there was really not a lot of people that could refer me, because I hadn’t done a lot of work with a lot of people. Sure. Yeah. But you know, 17 years later, that’s not the case. I mean, we have plenty of referrals and yeah. It is a big part of our business. Absolutely. you know, the other thing is just, you know, networking. Go meet some new people go, you know, go be a part of some groups or whatever. Yeah. And that’s something that, you know, I did early on, but I didn’t find a lot of success.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Probably a little awkward for me, you know, I was pretty young didn’t feel like I had a lot to really offer, so. Sure. Kinda probably didn’t take advantage of that like I should have. But it’s something that we’ve been doing for the last, you know, five or six years and really, really starting to focus on it a lot more now than we have in the past. Yeah. but, but I guess now we do feel like we have something to offer to offer, so it’s a little easier to go out and do those kind of things. General contractors Baton Rouge make sure you are developing your digital marketing processes.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Makes the conversation a lot easier. <Laugh>. Right.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Yeah. And then, you know, the last part of it, or, or another part of it is just digital marketing. Just marketing in general. Like, honestly, you know, as a young contractor, I just didn’t feel like there was really, I didn’t feel like marketing and running ads and do different stuff, but really generate work. I just, I guess, young and dumb. I just didn’t really think that there was a place for it. I mean, I thought you had referrals. You know, I thought you could go meet some people in a, in a network or in a, at an event or whatever, and you could get something that way. Sure. I just didn’t see any way that you put an ad out there and somebody would call you, or you put something, you know, on your website or even something like a podcast. Yeah. Just didn’t really see that that would do anything. But I was certainly wrong in, in that aspect. <Laugh>. I mean, I know that we’ve, we’ve been doing this for a while now, and it’s it really changed our business in a big way, to be honest.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
So I think, you know, marketing huge, digital marketing just, just a big part of, of that first initial phase of, of, you know, generating leads, generating new customers. And so that’s, that’s kind of the three areas that we really, you know, really try to create some, some activity in that, in that front end. Yeah,
Speaker 2 (05:03):
For sure. So, all right. So we, we did our lead gen. We, we did our marketing, we’ve got some leads, and now we, we have one that’s gotten pretty warm and we’re determined to turn them into a client <laugh>. So we’re going to go to that next step. And the next step is project planning and preparation. There’s a lot obviously in this and, and several steps to this, but just give us the high notes again, and knowing that we’re gonna drill in on this series.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
So I series this, this part, this is a big phase. The you know, this, this part two or whatever you wanna call it. Yes. It’s a lot happens in this, in this phase, but yes, to your point, we, we’ve already we’ve already kind of generated a lead. They, they’ve reached out to us. They usually come to our, to our office at this point. And, and, you know, they already have an understanding of who we are. They already have a feel for how we do things, things. And they’ve done this by, by going to our website. They’ve done this by listening to, you know, the podcast or what, however, typically when they call us, they’re already fairly familiar with, with the way we do business. Yeah. but what we like to do is, is bring them in, in this, in this, you know, part two and introduce ourselves formally. It’s almost like a person to person meeting now. Yes. and it feels like you kinda already know each other. Right. Because they come in with some knowledge of us. Yes. we’ve usually already had a, you know, an extensive phone call where we’ve asked a bunch of questions and we kind of understand, you know, their direction and what they’re wanting to do. Yeah. So it’s the first time meeting in person, but it’s not like it’s this awkward first time we’ve ever talked, you know The pre-construction part is important for all contractors including general contractors Baton Rouge.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
What I mean? Little bit of rapport exists already.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Right. So we do that we start to understand, you know, what their project is. We, we try to understand what their budget is, you know, how, what, what, you know, how do they intend to use this space? What, what do they want their employees or what do they want their clients to get outta this space? Yes. And, and really just start to understand their project as a whole. You know, from there, we’re, we’re looking to start to build a design team, start to build a construction team you know, build a preliminary budget. Yes. And typically after we have, you know, after we understand their project, we do, we kind of roughly put together a construction team and the design team, and then we bring everybody back together again. Yes. And let you know, let the client, you know, understand who they’re gonna be working with. You know, let all of our guys understand who the client is. Mm-Hmm <affirmative>. Just to kind of get that, I guess, a second meeting where everybody gets a good feel for each other. Yes. And, and kind of, you know, feels good about where we’re headed for sure. And you know, from there we actually go build some hard budgets. Get, get under contract for design, get into construction. Yeah. And then and then move along to the next phase. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Alright. So can’t wait to come back and, like I say, drill in on all these different parts. ’cause That one has so much meat.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Yeah. There’s a lot to that one. I mean, that, that can, that’s gonna be, that could be a long episode
Speaker 2 (07:59):
For sure. Yeah. And anyways, we look forward to that one. So let’s go ahead and move into part three. So you, you’ve done your lead gen, you know, you’ve done your marketing, you got leads. Now you have this perspective client. They’re very warm. You’ve, you’ve worked up preliminary budgets. They’ve been introduced to what we feel is a good fit for a design team. And and, you know, we’re, we’re all going in the same direction at this point. We’re pulling in the same direction. So now we’re at this, what we’d call the pre-construction phase part three. And there’s a lot of things that are going on here. A lot of logistics happens in part three. So maybe you can touch on, so how this unfolds in, in preconstruction.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
Yeah. So, you know, in this phase, and I may have got a little ahead of myself in the last phase, but in this phase, we’re, we’re gonna lean on our, our design team a lot and even our subcontractors, because I mean, this is where, you know, in, in that initial, in that part two meeting, I guess we, we kind of put that high level budget out there. Yes. and, and it was really based on just, you know, other projects just experience and that kind of thing. Mm-Hmm <affirmative>. Just to make sure that, you know, we’re halfway in line with, with what the owner’s expectation is. Yeah. You know, in this, in this pre-construction, we’re really leaning on, we’re really leaning on our our design team to verify that all the things we talked about in the part two meeting can actually happen, you know? Exactly. Yeah. According to code, according to the, you know, can this space be used or can this, this property be used
Speaker 2 (09:30):
According to budget
Speaker 3 (09:32):
<Laugh>. Right. And and then we also, you know, we’re getting things lined up like our surveyor. Yes. We getting, you know geotech reports. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Do some soil testing, all
Speaker 3 (09:44):
This kind of stuff that, that our, that our guys are gonna need to be able to design this project. Absolutely. and then, and then even, you know, lean on the subcontractors for a little bit a little bit, I guess, yeah. Deeper knowledge of, okay, initially we kind of threw this budget out there. Yeah. But what was that based on? How, what were you thinking? And we need our, you know, design team to have that information so that we can budget according to, or they can plan according to budget. Yes. so, and that’s, that’s kind of that pre-construction phase where we’re pulling all those things together to make sure that we’re, we’re in line with, you know, part two or that first meeting with the client.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Yeah. And, and I think the subcontractor, there’s again just like the last part with, with design team assembly, you know, the subcontractor thing is such a huge piece, and I can’t wait till we do the, you know, the the deep dive on that because they really they’re, they’re gonna inform the schedule a lot. Yes. We, we rely on them to tell us about according to the scope that they would be covering and, you know, like long lead items and turnaround times for this and that. So it, it’s, it’s, there’s a lot there that they’re gonna help us kind of put, you know, the, the final touches on being able to put this package together and get ready to actually, you know, go to, you know, con actual construction phase. General contractors Baton Rouge you need to refine your processes for design team assembly.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah. So to me, every everybody is in this, in this method. Everybody’s really integral part of the, you know, the project. Absolutely. and it’s kind of a checks and balance, you know, the subs have already kind of put some preliminary budgets out there. Yes. So the architect has to know, or the design, the designer has to know, like, how did you get to that? Like, what was your thought process? Yes. and this, at this phase, it really just verifies that we can actually do what we talked about in part two in that initial meeting. Yeah. With the client. And, and just everybody’s important. I mean, it’s, it’s a huge, it’s a huge part of making sure this project gets kicked off in the right direction and, and gets kicked off in the direction that we all had discussed.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, for sure. And like you said, discuss, that’s, that’s really a, a key term there because unlike like a public bid or something where, you know, there’s this giant spec book and, and, you know, every sub for every scope is just expected to go through that spec book and know every line, every, you know, every period and comma and, and what, what it means. A lot of times in private work, the design is not as extensive because it doesn’t have to be Yeah. You can save the client a lot of money. So again, with the back to the subs, you know, in the design team, having those team members all come together like that is, is really crucial because a lot, I think the design team is gonna probably have to answer a lot of questions that the subcontractors are gonna have about some of the details that you normally would find in this spec book that, you know, very, you know, possibly doesn’t exist on this project. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
So, well, I, I really wanna continue to elaborate, but I guess we’ll save that for the next
Speaker 2 (12:53):
<Laugh>. I bet.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
But yeah, it’s,
Speaker 2 (12:54):
There’s a lot there.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
It’s definitely definitely key.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Okay, so let’s go ahead. We’ve done our pre-construction work, we’ve done all our logistics. So, you know, we, again, this is, this is the business pro process. We’ve, we’ve, you know, generated our leads, got our client done all our logistics to actually make this, this, you know, concept that this client had this vision that they had that they want to build. Now it’s taken shape, we’ve got it on paper, we’ve got it in a budget, and we have all the teams, the team members assembled to be able to execute this thing. So now it’s time to actually go break ground and do the work. So what, what’s going to transpire through this, this part four of the construction phase? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
So part four is the fun part, right? That’s
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
It it’s where we actually get this thing, get to construction and get to build it. Yeah. It’s something we’ve been trying to do for months now, right? That’s right. We it’s always exciting to see one kickoff, you know, after you’ve been planning and working as a team for, for quite a, quite a while. I mean, this thing’s gonna take months to, you know, to get ’em to permitting and get ’em through permitting and get ’em into construction. Yeah. But, you know, at our office, what, what the construction phase looks like is, is typically we, we bring the same team together and, you know, first pre-construction meeting or whatever you want to call it, kickoff meeting. Yeah. And get everybody out there and, and everybody excited. You know, it’s something we’ve all been working towards. It’s the start line, I guess.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Right. And we get it under construction. We usually, we’ll set up, you know, set up some meetings, it’s biweekly or monthly, just depending on the project, how big and how intricate it is. Yeah. but we’ll, we’ll go ahead and set up, you know, some, a routine meeting, a scheduled meeting. Hey guys, John Kelly here, founder, CEO Kelly Construction Group. Like, I just wanted to say, we appreciate you guys tuning into the podcast. We try to put some good information out there. Hopefully you guys are enjoying it. We’re gonna continue to do it. You know, please like, and subscribe. Let us know if there’s anything you guys wanna wanna hear about. Feel free to leave some comments. Also wanted to let you guys know we’re putting together a, you know, mastermind class or a workshop on commercial development. We’re looking to have a few speakers in the area.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
We’re gonna have a, you know, somebody from a financial institution, architects engineer. We’ll be there speaking as well. You know, we will end that with a question and answer session, give you guys an opportunity to ask some questions to all the professionals that, you know, tick, take part in it. So we’re gonna leave a link in the in the, in the description of the show that you guys can, you know, fill out, just to gauge some interest. We’re not gonna reach out to you, we’re not gonna bug you. We just simply wanna know, you know, what the interest level is. And we’d love to have you guys attend. So look for that link, fill it out. And again, we appreciate you guys tuning into the podcast, and hopefully you’ll keep doing. So have a great day, guys. Ever. So often, General contractors Baton Rouge consider putting together your own masterclass.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Of course, that starts with the pre-construction meeting where all the stakeholders are there and all that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
But from there, you know, the way it works at our office is, is it, it turns over to, it kind of goes from our estimator who was a part of all this pre-construction process and all this, and it goes over to our pm Yeah. And our project manager, you know, they communicate, you know, they communicate with the owner, they communicate with the designers, engineers, whatever. They also relay that information to our, you know, our supers. And, and our supers are actually in the field running the job, keeping subcontractors lined up, you know, trying to keep things on schedule. They’re, they’re notifying the PM of any kind of problems or any issues that need to be addressed. Yeah. And and, and then the PM is the kind of the go between. He’s, he’s, you know, talking back and forth between the super and, you know, design team owner, you know, our PMs are also, you know, making sure that submittals, making sure products are correct.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
They’re updating schedules long list of things. I know this ain’t the show for it, but that’s kind of what construction looks like. You know, at our office, we set that initial meeting up where everybody involved is there, you know, from there we, we kind of put out a routine meeting that, you know, whoever needs to be there, whatever subs are working at the time, typically always includes, you know, our pm our superintendent, the the project owner. Yeah. And then whatever other people may be involved at that point. And we kind of go from there. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
So communication and budget seem to be two huge aspects. Once you’re in that construction phase, you’re managing communications on a lot of channels, it sounds like. And and then of course the budget is, is constantly having to be monitored,
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Right? Yeah. Yes. Absolutely. Very important to to ma to manage all those things. That’s
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Right. So, all right. So we’ve, I’m gonna, I keep recapping these points ’cause I like, I like you to take the journey with us. We’ve done marketing and sales, and we got clients, we got leads, we turned ’em into clients, we took warm leads, turned ’em into clients, presented our package and our value proposition, and w was able to put a deal together. And then we went to construction. So now we’ve, we’ve done our part. We’ve actually taken this thing that started as a vision in the mind of, of this potential client who, who we’ve met and and developed this relationship with. And we’ve created a budget for this, this thing that they envision. And we put it on paper as a design. Then we actually went to the field, built this thing. And so now you have this built environment where, you know, whatever purpose they had behind this, this this vision and this, this structure is gonna take place, whether it’s a business or people living or whatever it is. So now it’s, it’s you know, post-construction phase. We’re delivering the project completely to them. What takes place in that post-construction phase as far as like documentation, warranty, and then relationship management with the client?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Yeah. I think ultimately our goal is you know, client satisfaction. I mean, we say that all the time for sure. And and that’s, that’s where we want to end. Yes. I mean, you know, obviously as the project’s going along, you know, the temperament, you know, the heartbeat of the owner. Yeah. Hopefully it’s good. Most of the time it is. Yes. <laugh>. But, you know, there’s always, there, there’s always a potential for little issues that can, that can, you know, ruffle a feather or two, and that’s just construction. But at the end of the day, we want the client to be satisfied. Yes. So that’s our ultimate goal. Sure. we start off, you know, the close out by doing a final walkthrough with the client, just making sure everything meets their need. Everything meets their expectation. Yes. and if if it don’t, then we make a punch list and we, we try to make sure that it does.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
That’s right. Generally speaking, we we’re pretty good at that. And I do think that most of our clients, you know, walk away fairly happy. Yes. so that’s our ultimate goal is, is client satisfaction. Yes. you know, from there we wanna make sure that they know and understand their space and how to operate it. So we’re showing ’em things like, you know, where your breaker box is and what’s important, you know, what, what, what operates, what Sure. Make sure it’s clearly labeled. Make sure they understand that kind of stuff. Yeah. you know, maybe they have a special controls under HVAC system, let’s show ’em how to operate that. Yes. Let’s show ’em how to, you know, to use that. Let’s make sure that they have all the proper documentation. So we kind of give ’em a, you know, a quick run through of how to use their space, if you will.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Yeah. sometimes that involves, you know, subs that in, you know, that installed certain systems or whatever. Yeah. But, but just to make sure that one, the space meets their expectation. Two, they know how to use it and they know how to operate whatever it is that, you know, that we’ve left them with. Sure. Yeah. And then, you know, lastly, or, or not lastly, but one of the other key things that we do is, you know, talk about the warranty and, you know, put that out there. Like, what does that look like? Because, I mean,
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Set the expectation,
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Set the expectation because you know, a lot of times you, you think one thing and the owner thinks something else. Yeah. But, you know, I’ve, I’ve had it to where, you know, people call me 10 years down the road and want me to warranty a roof or want me to warranty, you know, I don’t know, whatever it is. Yeah. And, and obviously there’s different levels of different things. You know, warranties depend on the product Yeah. Depending on what
Speaker 2 (21:51):
It is and the material. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
So that expectation, that expectation needs to be set. Yes. You know, and it also needs to be clear, you know, whether it’s a, a manufacturer warranty or something that we, you know, so yes, there’s lots of, lots of areas for, to, to put clarity in, in the warranty realm for sure. So, so I think that that’s kind of how we close ’em out. You know, we wanna make sure that they, they have an understanding of, or we wanna make sure that we meet the expectation that the client’s satisfied. Yeah. We wanna make sure they know how to use their space. Yes. And then we wanna make sure that they understand from a warranty standpoint, you know, what that looks like. And, and you know, where do we, how does that work? Yeah. Because to me, that could be one area that, you know, you’re looking to have repeat work, work with a client, but yeah. If that warranty wasn’t explained in the beginning, they could easily become sour over a situation that shouldn’t, shouldn’t really Exactly. Be that. You know what
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I mean? That’s exactly right. Yeah. That’s why setting that expectation is so important because it’s like the old saying, <laugh>, I know I fall back on this one all the time. I’ve used it in several of our shows, but frustration begins where knowledge ends. Yeah. Once said, an old horse trainer, <laugh>. And and it’s so true. You know, sometimes just not knowing will make a person mad, you know? Yeah. You matter in an old wet head or matter in a hornet, whatever you wanna say. Right. But it’s, if you just fill that empty space with a little bit of knowledge Yeah. You can prevent that from ever happening. And, and like you said too, you know, you could have, do a great job, have a great experience for the whole process, and then because they don’t understand the warranty aspect, you, you take this great client that probably would’ve been easy to retain and maybe have business with them later and maybe turn ’em into not a great advocate for your brand anymore. Right. Just ’cause you know, they got their feathers ruffled, like you said, ’cause they didn’t understand something.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Yeah. Yeah. The communication wasn’t clear.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Yeah. So, so that’s great. I think, I think that’s important. Of course, we could talk about, you know, warranties just like the other parts of this process for hours. ’cause There’s so much meat there. The one thing that you hadn’t mentioned yet that you do that I appreciate, and I think that anyone watching this, if you’re in business, you, this is something you need to take a note on and actually try to do this yourself, is that you have a it’s a completely anonymous post project assessment or review of your company. And it’s a document in you know, somewhere along the lines of the closeout phase of the job where you’re sending out like all the documents and manuals that you talked about for all the different pieces of their project. You send the links out to whatever team members that stakeholder may have and the stakeholder themselves.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
And that link can be used at any time. So we don’t know when these surveys are gonna come in. And so we don’t necessarily, you know, are able to say, ah, it’s them or it’s that person because it’s completely anonymous and, and it could happen anytime. But they can send this survey in and give us their opinion on all the different aspects that we ask about their experience of working with us and, and going through the project you know, process with us. And I, I think that’s just an awesome thing to get. Like we talked about you know, a lot of times people are, are scared to get feedback. You know, there’s, there’s usually two camps in business. You got a camp that, you know, they, they, they perform a service or, or sell a product and then they don’t even wanna see that customer again.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
‘Cause They don’t wanna know if they loved it or hated it. I just soon go on and get me a new client. And it’s, you know, have the warm fuzzies like you get when you first meet somebody, you know. And but the reality is, is that you don’t know that how well you’re shooting and how close you are to the bullseye of the target if you never can see where the shot lands those assessments are telling you exactly where, you know, the arrow hit the, the target and how to adjust your site to get on that bullseye. So feedback loops are, are amazing tools for people in business to be able to really iterate their product or service and just become just a bullseye hitter every time they’re, they go out of the gate because they’ve made the adjustments based on these, these assessments or sightings of where where you landed.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Yeah. You know, on, on the target. So anyways, I, I appreciate that. If you’re in business, definitely you can create one of these assessments for free anywhere, like Google Docs for example. You can create a an anonymous survey of product or service and list it, you know, in your digital material to your clients and get that same feedback and help you iterate your product or service and and hit the bullseye. So, but I appreciate that about you. ’cause You, you embraced the feedback. You don’t run from it where a lot of businesses don’t necessarily want to hear anything after the sale. They just wanna move on. Yeah,
Speaker 3 (26:59):
It’s good. No, I think we, I think we I think we came up with that one of our leadership meetings and just thought it would be a good idea and, and to get, you know, yeah. Some anonymous feedback too, because a lot of times people don’t wanna put specifically if it’s negative, they don’t want to put put their name to it, so can you blame ’em <laugh>? Right. but, you know, we encourage people to, to use those, you know, use those type of things because Yeah. At the end of the day, it really, if as a, you know, client, you’re expecting a, a good project or you’re expecting, you know, a good experience Yeah. You know, that feedback helps make that happen for sure. So we love to get it, love to understand it. It helps get us on track. Yeah. But it also helps the, the client get the product they need at some point down the road or whatever, you know, so
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Very very good information and super helpful for, for really both, both parties.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
