Big fan of this podcast. Mike does a great job of bringing in a variety of industry related guests. He branches out in areas that I would not usually seek out on my own. Always learning and growing from the information I get here. Thank you, Mike, for bringing this podcast to the construction industry!

United States2 years ago Thank you for doing this. This podcast is so helpful but also interesting. It’s exactly what I needed and I’ve listened to every episode. Many of them more than once!!
Podchaser52 years agoBlackChalkCharles- Very Helpful!
I started listening to The Contracting Handbook two weeks ago and love the show. Finding good information is next to impossible in this industry. What Mike Knoche does for this industry is so valuable and I greatly appreciate it.
Hoping that some future episodes will talk about numbers as that’s where I struggle a lot being a new contractor. I don’t honestly know what labor rates for certain installs go for and it’s been a very hard learning process. Great podcasts!

Always keeping it funny and in... more
