From an interview with Greg Randa in the October 2006 issue of Concrete Contractor. Reprinted with permission.
A One important way he got help developing his business was joining the American Society of Concrete Contractors. He joined a MIX Group - a small group of noncompeting ASCC members from around the country - and began attending the annual spring and fall conferences.
"I really owe credit to the ASCC," he says. "Talking to the members of the group has really helped me build the business. Because of their experiences, they could tell me what not to do and I could learn from their mistakes."
By looking at the better run, better developed businesses owned by some of the ASCC members, Randa was able to quickly improve how he ran the company.
"Just feeding off of the information from those guys was so important," he says. "They're willing to share with anyone. All I can tell people is if you're in the industry, you should become a member of ASCC."
