                I know I certainly would, and that is why I have written this book (and several others). It is also why I spend so much time prepar- ing and delivering professional development programs. Certainly, I like to make money, but the real reward is knowing I made a difference.

                If I can help contractors—particularly trade and specialty contractors—do better, I will have left a legacy of which I can be proud. I will have made a difference.

                When I work with contractors, I want them to see beyond the money. I want them to see the business as a process for making money and creating a good lifestyle. With this focus, it is easier to build a contracting business that will be both your legacy and a legacy for your family.

                You will find some informative gems within these pages; my hope is you will enjoy using them to your advantage and to the advantage of those in your sphere of influence.

                Create your own legacy, starting now!

                With some 30 years of experience on four continents, and having analyzed more than 2,000 sets of financial statements for con- tractors—interviewing the owners and helping them enhance their businesses—Ron knows what’s going on and, more im- portantly, why! You will be surprised at seeing yourself in these pages time and time again.

                Wouldn’t you like to make a difference in this world?
                Ron is a professional accountant, certified management consul- tant and professional speaker. Benefit from the experience of your peers; use this book as your guide to more money and more fun.

                Becoming Contractor of the Year
                “I’m stuck. I’m tired. I never have a weekend free. I need help. I need to make the next step in this company’s evolution. I can see it. I can sense it... I don’t want to lose what I’ve started, what we accomplished and worked so hard at building.”

                EBMag announced that as their “It’s Your Business” columnist I've  published a new book entitled: Becoming Contractor of the Year: While making more money and having more fun. This book follows the transformation of a contractor named Dave, who went from “doing okay” to becoming Contractor of the Year.

                This book is not for those looking to build themselves a job, but those wanting to build their business, because a real business can run effectively without your daily presence."  



                Becoming Contractor of the Year goes through the same steps undertaken by Dave, including:
                • Developing the right mindset 
                • Analyzing your numbers
                • Executing change

                Also included are helpful appendices containing handy worksheets, and so much more. Becoming Contractor of the Year also explores why small businesses fail, how to tackle overhead, how to measure and manage and, ultimately, how to make more money while having more fun. After reading this book, you will have the tools you need to build your business; you will be able to lay out your blueprint and make it happen. 

                NOTE: Contractor Associations are encouraged to buy and promote this book for the advantage of their membership and to raise funds for their organization. This book is available at special quantity discounts to use for sales promotions, employee premiums or educational purposes. A 40% price discount is offered on quantities of 100 or more.  Contact Ron at ronald@ronaldcoleman.ca for details.
