Hi! – My Name is Nicholas Hurd
I have been working with contractors and developing software for the construction industry for decades. Most of my clients in the past were successful construction companies because they could afford my services.
In working with them, I uncovered the reasons they are successful. I decided to take the secrets I learned and use them to assist small and medium sized contractors achieve the same level of success.
The result is
The Contractor’s Profit System™
The original version of The Contractor’s Profit System was introduced years ago and has sold over 4,000 copies. The program is a desktop app that requires a PC to function. In 2021 we decided to move into the 21 century and develop a mobile app that will work on any mobile device.
The Contractor’s Profit System Mobile provides all the functions and features of the original desktop app and more!
- Your estimates by sections, like foundations, framing, roofing, etc.
This means that you will be able to find duplicated or missed items in your estimates. And, you clients will love the organization of your estimates when you present to them. - Measurable Items are the core of making money on your estimates
When you estimate with measurable items, you can find where you are making money and adjust losing items to make money on your next estimate. - Simplified budgets make it easy for you to track the costs of your jobs
Many contractors do not track the costs for their jobs because they think it is to hard or too much work. And, if you are attempting to track each nut, bolt and screw, it is! Simplified budgets take the drudgery out of tracking your job costs. - You will find the integration with QuickBooks increases the confidence level in your estimates
At the click of a button simplified budgets are created in QuickBooks so you can track your costs as you pay your bills. You will receive a copy of “How to Wring Every Dollar out of Your Projects Using QuickBooks”. This e-book illustrates how you use QuickBooks to maximize your profits, job after job.
The Secrets to Making Money
I wrote this book in 2009 as another way of helping small and medium-sized contractors thrive in today’s competitive world. The forward to the book was written by Mike Weiss who was the training manager for the National Association of Homebuilders at the time. And, he was also a Contractor’s Profit System client.
