10 things successful local contractors do

I saw an interesting story on LinkedIn listing the 10 things successful local contractors do. The list suggests that contractors look at markets with local job growth, know about investor involvement in their market and the relationship between job growth and new construction spending.

The list, from Genie Bazaar, also suggests contractors meet deadlines, provide free estimates, network with contractors in other trades and advertise. Contractors are having many of the same problems as millwork and cabinet makers.
