There are both free and paid softwares that can help you automate mundane tasks and free up your time to focus on your goals and grow your business..Find ways to mute distractions: Whenever you need to focus on one task, close down your email, put your phone on do not disturb, turn off notifications and set a timer for exactly how long you have to spend on the task at hand and ignore all distractions until the time is up or your task is completed.Utilize time blocking: If you aren’t sure how you currently spend your time or don’t ever seem to have enough time in the day, try a time blocking exercise for at least 3 days where you write down everything you did throughout the day - 6:00-6:15: Ate breakfast, 6:15-6:35: reviewed MLS listings, etc.

Hi Joshua,Here are just a few things that come to mind:Look for a history of "On Budget/On Time".By PM I assume you mean a general contractor.Ask for several RECENT references similar to your job and go review the work quality, call the owners and discuss their experience with this business.Ask for copies of any needed licences and check with the licensing authority to make sure they are current.You must understand you areas Lien Release procedures, and follow them to a "Tee".Decide how you will pay, paper checks vs etc..., and understand in writing when and for what you will pay.Be prepared to walk thru (or have the contractor do it via video) the work done before releasing the payments.Understand that in many areas (it is common for) "Construction Types" to "Knock off" at certain earlier time on Fridays and begin drinking beer.
