How Tim Boulden’s Tight Handling of His KPIs and Operations Have Boulden Brothers on Target for $9.5M at Double-Digit Profitability in 2021
Today’s show features Tim Boulden of Boulden Brothers in Newark, Delaware. As you will see, Tim has Boulden Brothers on target to hit $9.5M at double-digit profitability in 2021. Tim has been steering Boulden Brothers for more than 20 years, and it has become a legacy business in their market—and one that has almost always enjoyed growth and strong profitability, so much so that it has allowed Tim to become an investor/part-owner of SGI. Talk with Tim for any period of time, and you will walk away with a head full of information. Tim knows and loves the contracting business—and he loves helping other members. And in this interview, Tim dropped tons of helpful nuggets, including: his rule on adding children to his business; his insights into what really happens when you add a new trade to an existing service business; the importance of focusing on effectiveness—not efficiency; traits of a great service manager; how VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) transformed Boulden Brothers; the necessity of a manpower plan when building your annual budget; tips on how to properly track technician performance; insight into how to incentivize your senior management team; and so much more!
