AI is exposing everything that's broken in your contracting business…
…before it fixes anything.
Everyone's racing to adopt AI right now. But here's what nobody's saying: if your workflows are messy, AI doesn't clean them up. It accelerates the chaos. This episode is your filter; a practical, no-hype walkthrough of where AI for contractors actually fits, where it makes things worse, and how to know if your business is even ready.
If you're running a contracting company and feeling the pressure to "do something with AI" before you fall behind, this is the episode to listen to first.
