In this week’s video, Contractor Coach Mike Draper (www.renovantage.com) continues his talk about “problem solving” with Canadian Contractor’s Rob Koci. As Mike says in the video, one of the worst things you can do, when there’s a screw-up or a glitch on a customer’s renovation, is to forge right in with what YOU think is the right solution for the client, without finding out if they think it’s an adequate way around the issue. “Make sure you get ALL the options out on the table,” Mike says. “Evaluate ALL the alternatives. Make sure you both agree of what the best solution to the problem is.”
