From phone books to algorithms! 📱 Andrea and Jamie sit down with Teddy Rodgers, who started Anderson Rogers Construction in 2006, right before the recession nearly took everyone down. Two decades later, he's still standing and expanding across the Southeast. This episode is a masterclass in survival, partnership, and staying relevant in a rapidly changing world.
Teddy breaks down the truth about business partnerships (spoiler: your college roommate might be the perfect CPA), why treating everyone with dignity builds unstoppable teams, and how reading books literally saved his business. Plus, the brutal reality that three people will let you down by lunch every day in construction and how to keep building anyway.
Key takeaways: Stop creating just a job for yourself. Start building something bigger. And remember, clients will forgive mistakes, but never lies.
If you're in construction, real estate, or any business where trust is currency, this one's for you.
