Is Perfection Your Blessing or Curse?
The podcast discussion begins with the reveal of Hammer and Grind’s private contractor, business community, called The Profit Club.
While Eric believes striving for perfection is a Blessing and a Curse, Brad plays the Devil’s Advocate and says the need to achieve perfectionism is a curse, but striving for perfection is a good thing. Eric and Brad agree, what is perfect for one person is not always perfect for another.
The podcast jumps to Comparing top end Chefs, like Gordon Ramsey and Bobby Flay in their pursuit of perfection in a meal, to how contractors deliver their products and services to clients.
Storytime with Triplett tells of a time when Eric got his feelings hurt after he built what he felt was the perfect waterfall for a client. Eric explains his client hated what he believed was a perfect waterfall and how he turned the problem into an opportunity.
Since perfection is in the eye of the beholder, as a contractor, it is important to have a clear understanding of your clients expectations.
