Bad economy causing large contractors to go small

January 22, 2009 businessbeware.biz 1 comment

You know normally large contractors are the ones on the big projects but with the economy being the way it is and things taking more of a hault than a slow down, it has become a ripple effect for all contractors. 

The smaller companies and contractors that go after the smaller jobs and bids that pop up are now having to fight with the larger ones as well and outbid them too.  Larger contractor companies are having to go after the small ones to so they can stay alive. 

It was already a tough market with the smaller companies battling out bids for jobs but now it makes it even a tougher market, especially for the smaller contractors across America.

Contractors, Businesses….a New Year…

January 5, 2009 businessbeware.biz 1 comment

First of all Happy New Year to everyone!  I personally cannot believe it is 2009 and fast 08 went but time to start fresh! 

I was reading the other day an article that had statistics about contractors for the year of 08.  To give you an idea it was saying that contractors now have the worst rating of all businesses because of so many bad ones.  This is why contractors get such a bad name because of the certain ones that do screw over customers that are not licensed. 

There are so many websites out there that rate contractors for consumers because of these certain contractors.  This is not fair to the ones who do a great job with their work and stay true to the customers. 

We have some contractors/businesses that have come together in their area to report these certain unlicensed contractors so they cannot scam anyone else.  If you are a contractor or business who are tired of certain unlicensed contractors in your area, we encourage you to get others you know and fight back against these contractors giving you a bad name. 

If you want to start it yourself, just write a letter asking others to join you and fight back, it is simple as that.  If you need some help and want some advice on this, please contact us.   You can contact us at contactus@businessbeware.biz if you have any questions. 

Let’s start the year off right, and good luck to every business and contractor out there!
