Also being my own boss and earning profits instead of a paycheck, this is most rewarding. Please comment on those relationships. Are they stressful or pleasant and why. Vendor prices is a major consideration when determining cost to our customers. The higher vendor prices the higher the bids must go.
Low bidding gets the jobs.
Dealing for better prices from the vendors can sometimes be stressful. Good communication with site superintendents, paving foremen, estimators, and general contractors are necessary in determining customer wants and needs. If the customer is happy then I am happy. Too much work, too little time. More personnel will have to be added as my company continues to grow.
