Episode 67: So You Want to Be a Builder, Pt. 1

On this episode of The Build Show Podcast, Matt goes deep with guest Will King of High Cotton Homes outside of Huntsville, Alabama.

They discuss their different experience in the industry; Matt, with a few decades, and Will as a relative newcomer to the field.

Will shares his fears over making the decision to leave the security and benefits of being a paramedic/firefighter to be a builder. They talk about how they handled the grueling hours of the trade and the benefits of being self-employed. They also touch on the importance of building a great team and the difference between owning a job and owning a business.
