RRP Contractor Business Coaching
Strategies for Remodelers & Contractors, the EPA RRP RULE & OSHA Requirements

A New Opportunity for Residential Remodelers, Home Improvement Contractors and Trades

Become a Certified Renovator and stand out from the rest of the industry who wont. This certification can be used to educate your customer and show them that you are a true professional. Once homeowners know the risks of hiring a non-compliant company they will disqualify them. This Rule raises the bar for our industry and will force companies to comply, go out of business or work illegally. Properly educated homeowners will not want to risk their home, health, or project hiring illegal contractors. Embrace this opportunity and make it part of the reasons why it is in their best interest to hire you and not the non-compliant contractor. Napoleon Hill once said "every adversity carries with it the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit". The seed here is leveling the playing field and forcing contractors who don't play by the rules to reconsider and professionalize their business. EPA Certification will force other standardization that will necessitate a change in how they conduct business. By educating the public homeowners will seek out contractors who are safe and can prove they are worth the risk. For more information on how to capitalize on this opportunity The Contractor Coaching Partnership can help with the development and implementation of effective strategies. 

Contact Mark the Coach to learn how to use this new opportunity to win the prospect's respect, trust and business.
