CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS 40% GROWTH.

OWNERS HOURS REDUCED BY 50%

Kevin Nind owner of London Building Renovation talks about how working with Jamie Goral grew his business by 40% and reduced his hours by 50%.

London Building Renovation Story According to Kevin the Owner

While we have always prided ourselves on our expertise and commitment to creating fantastic projects, the real success story in terms of where we are today and where we are going started with a reorganisation of the company in 2010.

We had built up a great reputation and were, arguably, the busiest, most well-known building company in the area. However, the internal business infrastructure was simply not in place to take the business to the next level.

Led by our ActionCOACH, whom we started working with in 2015, we divided the company into two areas of discipline, build and restore, and developed small teams of craftsmen with specialist skills to sit within the bigger team. We appointed a head foreman to lead each team and ensure everyone clearly understood their distinct roles and responsibilities.

This crucial, first step was the start of a whole new era for London Building Renovation. By unmuddying the waters and having a crystal clear strategy, day-to-day operations became far more efficient and, freeing up wasted time and resources, we were able to formulate a longer-term business growth plan, building on the positives we already had in place. Key to all this was our ActionCOACH introducing the L.I.O.N. framework into our company practices.


 

“I did think maybe people would laugh at me. I thought maybe it wouldn’t be the done thing for a tough building firm owner to do. I still jumped in. It’s been 20 months that I’ve been working with Jamie and I’ve gone through a great deal of changes. He didn’t only work with me, he came to work with my team and some of the benefits include a 40% growth in our turnover and my hours have reduced by 50%.

I would say that the journey has been exciting, exhausting, challenging. But there’s one constant I get off my coach and that is, he keeps me on track, keeps me honest and keeps reminding me that my business has to work for me.

I couldn’t recommend a coach strongly enough to anyone in business. Find the right coach like I did and I guarantee it will make a difference to your life.”
