Raises are harder than they look.

With rising costs, inflation, and a shortage of good people, many contractors feel pressured to simply pay more when an employee asks for a raise. But that’s not always the best move—for you or your team.

In this episode, I share a real client story and a different way to think about pay increases—one that turns a raise conversation into an opportunity to build ownership, contribution, and stronger results.

This isn’t about saying yes or no to more money. It’s about creating a win-win where your team grows and your business gets more value in return.
