What It's About
The heart of profitability lies in the skill and accuracy of estimating projects. But times have changed, especially for remodelers. You need a system that ensures you meet your true costs of project execution and overhead, provides margins that are responsive to market conditions and offers the transparency that today’s sophisticated consumer demands. This session teaches you a pioneering new methodology for estimating that eliminates the shell game and provides clarity and control over your numbers: Cost of Project Execution (COPE). Learn to turn the dials on your estimates, markup and pricing to make your company more consistently profitable and deliver a better experience to your customers.
