He's the President of CourTex Construction, and he manages the Backyard Pickleball FB Page, where he supports players and builders, but is also able to collect a ton of information on what people want, common questions, and trends in the market. In this episode, we talk about court substrates, but specifically dive into the differences between reinforced (rebar) concrete and post-tension concrete. When should you use them, how do you surface them, what do you need to watch out for, and how do you help a customer make the best choice for their situation? We touch on overlay systems, cracks, and most importantly...setting good expectations for your customers, knowing there's no PERFECT answer!

What's striking about David's story is how far simple acts of kindness and care to your early clients can lead to a full schedule of referral clients years later. It can be tempting when you're facing the unknown of a new business to try to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible...but David's story is a testimony to what can happen when you have faith, treat people right, stay humble, and are in it for the long haul. --- My name is Joe Freudenberg.

This is the deepest dive into asphalt (and concrete) surfacing you never knew you needed as a court surfacer. It's one thing to surface whatever court you find. It's another thing to know what issues to look out for so you're not getting called back to fix problems that aren't your doing. My guest Luc is a 40 year veteran in this space, my own personal coach over the past few years, and the most knowledgeable surfacer and court builder I know. This episode is going to level up your knowledge big time and help you be a better surfacer. --- If You Want To Build Your Own Court-Surfacing Business, Book A Free Consultation Call To See If Coaching Is Right For You: https://www.courtprocoaching.com/ --- Luc Lessard is the Director of DynaFlex and Grizzly Court.

Today I'm joined by my good friend Kaleb Dees of Palmetto Court Pros in Myrtle Beach. Like most new court surfacing entrepreneurs, Kaleb had imposter syndrome when it came time to start talking to clients and quoting jobs. But, he pushed through, utilized mentorship both on the business side and the actual process side, and after just one year in business, feels confident to tackle any problem that comes up in his business. Kaleb did $300K his first year, so if you're looking to get over the initial hesitation and fear that comes with starting a new business and succeed despite fear, this episode is for you! --- If You Want To Build Your Own Court-Surfacing Business, Book A Free Consultation Call To See If Coaching Is Right For You: https://www.courtprocoaching.com/ --- Find Kaleb Online: https://www.palmettocourtpros.com/ https://www.instagram.com/palmettocourtpros --- My name is Joe Freudenberg.

This is the story of how I started our court building business with ZERO experience, ZERO construction skills, and ZERO initial desire to do something like this. Hopefully you're inspired by some of the shots I took that made no sense to me at the time...but I just kept moving forward and asking for help. I want to encourage you that this is a viable business that can bless your family, because if I can do it with literally no experience and bring in $300K our first year, I know you can, too. --- If You Want To Build Your Own Court-Surfacing Business, Book A Free Consultation Call To See If Coaching Is Right For You: https://www.courtprocoaching.com/ --- Resources Mentioned: DadTired Podcast: https://www.dadtired.com/podcast/ Jeremy Pryor's Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@jeremypryorspodcast5258/videos --- My name is Joe Freudenberg.
