We help contracting business owners who are challenged by not having the expertise, processes and/or personnel to significantly scale the value of their business.

How We Help Contractors Thrive:

  • EAP coaches work with you to address the unique challenges of the construction industry—from improving project management and cash flow to developing stronger teams and winning more profitable bids. Through one-on-one guidance, you'll gain clarity on your business goals, implement systems that reduce costly errors and delays, and develop leadership skills to scale beyond being on every jobsite yourself. Whether you're struggling with growth, profitability, or simply feeling overwhelmed by daily operations, your EAP business coach provides accountability, proven strategies, and an outside perspective to help you build the construction business you envisioned.

  • EAP’s certified system implementation services help contracting businesses successfully adopt and integrate industry-specific software and operational systems tailored to your workflow. We guide you through the entire process—from selecting the right CRM, field service, accounting, or estimating platforms to configuring them for your unique needs and training your team to use them effectively. This ensures your business moves beyond spreadsheets and manual processes to streamlined digital systems that improve accuracy, reduce administrative burden, and provide real-time visibility into project costs, schedules, and profitability. With expert implementation, you avoid the common pitfalls of technology adoption, minimize disruption to ongoing projects, and achieve faster ROI on your software investment while building a foundation for long-term operational efficiency.

  • EAP’s expert sales trainers equip contracting business owners and their sales teams with the skills to win more profitable projects and build lasting client relationships. Our specialized training goes beyond generic sales tactics to address the unique dynamics of contracting sales—from conducting effective client consultations and presenting proposals that command higher margins to handling objections about price and differentiating your company in competitive bid situations. You'll learn how to qualify leads properly, communicate value rather than compete on price alone, and build trust that turns first-time clients into repeat customers and referral sources. Whether you're bidding on commercial projects, selling design-build services, or growing your residential business, sales training helps you close more deals at better margins while reducing time spent chasing projects that aren't the right fit.

  • EAP’s highly-experienced team provides contracting business owners with a strategic roadmap for sustainable growth and profitability. Our business planning specialists works with you to develop a comprehensive plan that addresses both the financial & operational realities of the industry—including revenue targets, project mix strategies, equipment and staffing needs, cash flow projections, and risk management. You'll gain clarity on which market segments and project types offer the best margins, how to position your company competitively, and what investments are needed to reach your growth goals without overextending resources. The result is a practical, actionable plan that moves beyond gut decisions to data-driven strategy, helping you navigate seasonal fluctuations, plan for expansion, prepare for economic changes, and build a construction business that achieves your long-term vision while maintaining healthy cash flow and profitability along the way.

Who We Serve

Residential Contractors

The key benefit of EAP coaching for residential contractors is gaining an outside perspective from someone who understands small business challenges but isn't caught up in daily operational pressures.

This allows business owners of contracting businesses to step back, evaluate their current practices objectively, and implement improvements that create lasting positive change in their business performance and personal well-being.

Commercial Contractors

The primary value of EAP’s coaching for large commercial contractors lies in gaining external perspective on complex organizational challenges, access to best practices from other industries, and structured approaches to managing the multifaceted issues that arise in large-scale construction operations.

This enables executive teams to make more informed strategic decisions while building organizational capabilities that sustain competitive advantage over time.

EAP’s Mission

EAP’s mission is more than simply transformation; it is about creating & building lasting value through every interaction we have with our clients, our team and our communities.

The exceptional value we deliver to business owners is rooted in the inspirational passage from the book, Atlas Shrugged, featured below:

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it’s yours.”
