Review
Business health is dependent on strong processes and systems. Wendy and Bill s book give you a great blueprint. --Mark Richardson, Co-chairman, Case Design/Remodeling and Author

I strongly recommend this book to fast-forward a start-up remodeling company and provide tools to improve existing companies. It will save remodelers from years of trial-and-error learning. --Lonny Rutherford, CGR, CAPS, CGP, Legacy Construction, Inc.

Most remodeling companies are started by people with all of the tools in the back of the truck but none of the tools up front that will help them run a successful business. Asdal and Jordan provide indispensable office tools for the remodeler just starting out and for the seasoned pro. --Larry Zarker, Chief Executive Officer, Building Performance Institute, Inc.
