Stop Making Bad Hires: Build the Right Team for Your Roofing Company
Q: What is a great 30, 60, 90 look like from a framework perspective to you?
Alexander recommends setting milestones, key relationships, learning requirements, first deliverables, check-in rhythms and escalation guidance. Regular pulse checks at 14, 30, 60 and 90 days help compare the employee's view with the manager's and identify whether issues stem from the person, the process or the manager.
Stop Making Bad Hires: Build the Right Team for Your Roofing Company
Q: What's the starting and ending point of getting the right people in your company in the right seat?
Alexander says to first establish why the role needs to exist and define its measurable outcomes, daily priorities and a small set of performance indicators. Then determine the role's behavioral demands, hire through structured assessment and interviews, and support the employee with a clear onboarding plan and ongoing coaching.
The Roofing Companies That Thrive Do This Differently with Jacob Vanhorn
Q: What are the three variables that push or depress sales and market conditions?
Insurance changes, deductibles, and payment schedules; plus overall economic factors like COVID-era impacts and consumer disposable income. These drive when homeowners buy roofs and how much they're willing to pay, so you must adapt your sales approach and margins accordingly.
