✺ What's inside
A practical playbook — not a sales brochure.
Six pages, five disciplines, and a real case study showing what visibility is worth. Here's what you'll walk away with.
01
Know your most profitable jobs — and your riskiest
See which jobs make money and which quietly drain cash, time, or margin.
02
Catch underbilling before it wrecks your runway
Stop starving cash flow by invoicing behind your real progress.
03
Forecast cost and cash — kill the surprises
Build a rolling 13-week cash forecast so a tight month never blindsides you.
04
Operate with confidence, backed by real numbers
Track the KPIs that matter and run a monthly CFO rhythm.
Plus: 17.7% net profit — a real case study
See how one contractor went from tightening cash to beating the CFMA "best-in-class" benchmark — and what changed to get there.
✺ Who it's for
Built for growing construction & specialty-trade owners.
If you're running a $5M–$30M contracting business and revenue is growing faster than your visibility into cash and margin, this guide is written for you. Practical, direct, and field-tested — from a CFO who works only with the trades.
Revenue's up, but profit and cash don't reflect it
You can't quickly say which jobs make money
Big decisions feel more like gambling than strategy
You want a CFO rhythm without a full-time CFO salary
