“Alright you guys… lol. Making a guy legitimately tear up a bit here this evening haha. Man… Since I've been a part of this group I've had people give real constructive criticism, actually trying to help each other out, PM me to see how I'm doing, or to reach out in case I wanted any extra help, offer advice and just genuinely want to HELP!!! I am absolutely blown away and wish that I had found this AMAZING community before now. I've been (as I'm sure many others were as well) completely alone it seemed before… I've tried all the other BS groups, Contractors helping other blah blah blah… All anyone does in there is talk shit about each others work… Nothing to actually help run a successful business. Anyway… I just wanted to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Seriously. From myself and my family.”
READY TO START MAKING REAL PROFITS?

Surpassed 2Q Goal In April!
“Why yes, Mr GC we can do both projects for $74k. And thanks to Tom Reber and our coaches we will be doing them at 48% GP. Just gotta update the quotes and work out the timeline and this will put us over our 2Q revenue goal. It’s f***ing April y’all! I love this group! I love having confidence, I love not losing sleep over money every damn night, I love that I haven’t had a panic attack since the beginning of February, I love that I can give our team bonuses, I love that I am thinking about our future without anxiety. And most of all I love the people in this group and the support! I love that this is a safe space to share wins, have breakdowns, and get help rebuilding. There is no judgment and everyone here has walked in our shoes. It’s incredible to have found my tribe.”

Zero To 12 Months Booked
“I'll be sending a development agreement tomorrow on a $800k home build that was one I thought was gone. By reaching out for a follow up, it turns out I'm the guy they want to have help them through the process after so many other builders didn't give them the time of day. Went from zero contracts for 2023 and zero confidence that I wanted to continue in business just back in December to possibly having the next 12+ months booked, and just joined BATTLEGROUND January 18th. Don't be scared… Listen to Tom Reber, and stop stealing money from your families! Thanks everyone! Love the group!!”

I Brought My Golden Retriever
“$800,000. That's my baseline cost for today's first meeting. This is for a 40x80 timber framed bank barn (think drive under garage). Insulated, climate controlled, car and entertainment space.
This will be my biggest job ever if I can reel it in. I'm good with people and totally comfortable with my base number. Now all I have to do is convince the potential client that we are the way to go!”

***UPDATE***
“I killed it! He wants to see a finished barn (I have several). I put out a base number and he told me he spends $2million a year on construction projects. The rapport was established immediately. I brought my 3 month old golden retriever… He fell in love!”ROBERT B.

OPEN LETTER TO REMODELERS, LANDSCAPERS AND HOME IMPROVEMENT CONTRACTORS FROM TOM REBER:
Give me just 7 minutes and I’ll show you the secret weapon other contractors don’t want you to know about – and the path to contractor business success.
Tom Reber is the founder of The Contractor Fight, author of Winning the Contractor Fight and host of The Contractor Fight Podcast, the world's top podcast for contractors. His content has helped hundreds of thousands of contractors improve their lives and businesses. Tom is a United States Marine Corps Veteran, lover of fine tequila… and kettlebells.
If you are absolutely sick of the status quo, read on…
You are not the only one.
Most Contractors are fighting for their livelihood
every
single
day.
Without anything to show for it.
You’re tired. You get home after a long day and there’s nothing left in the tank. But there are phone calls to return. Estimates to do. Quotes to prepare. Invoices to write up.
Your customers get the best of you and your family ends up with the scraps. And that’s not much.

You’re tired. You get home after a long day and there’s nothing left in the tank. But there are phone calls to return. Estimates to do. Quotes to prepare. Invoices to write up.
Your customers get the best of you and your family ends up with the scraps. And that’s not much.
The fact is, you’ve been fighting for your livelihood every single day.
But you want to provide. To build a contracting business you can be proud of. So you can make more money, and your family can get you back. Because that’s why you’re doing it in the first place… Isn’t it?
But you want to provide. To build a contracting business you can be proud of. So you can make more money, and your family can get you back. Because that’s why you’re doing it in the first place… Isn’t it?
That’s why I created BATTLEGROUND. YOU are why BATTLEGROUND exists.
The outcome is simple: Take back control from the chaos, make more money and build the Contracting business you and your family can be proud of.
Our aim is to 10X your investment. TEN TIMES. (In fact, we regularly see Contractors in BATTLEGROUND 100X their investment! It's that powerful.)
So we’ll give you everything you need to make that happen, and nothing you don’t.
No ads. No tricky internet stuff. And it’s low-tech. The only tool you’ll need is your phone.
BATTLEGROUND solves the 3 biggest problems that prevent contractors from succeeding:
Our aim is to 10X your investment. TEN TIMES. (In fact, we regularly see Contractors in BATTLEGROUND 100X their investment! It's that powerful.)
So we’ll give you everything you need to make that happen, and nothing you don’t.
No ads. No tricky internet stuff. And it’s low-tech. The only tool you’ll need is your phone.
BATTLEGROUND solves the 3 biggest problems that prevent contractors from succeeding:
Problem 1: Not Knowing Your Numbers or worse still, Drowning in Debt
Problem 2: Inconsistent Sales & Profitability
Problem 3: Marketing That Doesn't Work
The first problem we'll solve together is an issue that almost every Contractor faces.
Drowning in debt. Owing more than you’re making. Just not knowing your numbers.
And knowing your numbers is not just about knowing your accounts. It can show up in all aspects of your business – from that job that was supposed to make you a tidy profit but ended up costing you a fortune, to paying everyone involved in the project except yourself, living job to job and deposit check to deposit check, or even owing the bank tens of thousands of dollars.
Drowning in debt. Owing more than you’re making. Just not knowing your numbers.
And knowing your numbers is not just about knowing your accounts. It can show up in all aspects of your business – from that job that was supposed to make you a tidy profit but ended up costing you a fortune, to paying everyone involved in the project except yourself, living job to job and deposit check to deposit check, or even owing the bank tens of thousands of dollars.
- We’ll start with the 50% Gross Profit Method
We’ll show you how it works and how you can apply it to your business to immediately impact the estimates you’re doing – so that you’re doing less work and making more money. - Next, we’ll install the perfect pricing formula into your business.
We'll show you what it's costing you to run your business for an hour, a day, or a week. No more guessing what it's costing you to run your business. Build this new knowledge into your estimates. Stop overthinking your pricing dead in its tracks, and make every estimate you do incredibly easy and ridiculously fast. - Then, we go deep (and meaningful) into what you're building as your legacy – because we want you to be profitable and STAY profitable.
This is the kind of thing that impacts generations. You get to change the destiny of your family tree.
The result? You’ll be 100% confident in your numbers, and have a plan not only to get you out of this debt hell-hole but a step-by-step process that will have you profiting on every single job you do. You’ll say goodbye to overthinking and second-guessing your estimates, no more writing proposals late into the night. You’ll have a pricing strategy that will guarantee your profits every single time you write an estimate – going from consistently low profits to literally changing your family tree.
“I didn't know where to start… You gave me the resources. The very first time I used the job costing sheet, it made a difference in how I ran a job.”
– Adam, Copher Tile & Stone
“I was stuck with percentages – now my spreadsheet is impeccable. From the downpayment all the way through to what goes in my pocket.”
– Marino, Nulook Cabinet Refinishing

Second, let's attack the sales problem.
As a Contractor, chances are you’re probably getting ghosted… You drive out to meet your prospect, do a tap dance for them, come home and write up a detailed proposal, negotiate against yourself for hours, hit send on the email and then…
…nothing. Nada. They ghost you.
As a Contractor, chances are you’re probably getting ghosted… You drive out to meet your prospect, do a tap dance for them, come home and write up a detailed proposal, negotiate against yourself for hours, hit send on the email and then…
…nothing. Nada. They ghost you.
- First, we’ll get you out of that feast or famine job (and money) cycle with a pre-qualified leads process.
We’ll focus on helping you get consistent clients you can rely on week in and week out. We call it the rainmaker method. - Next, we’ll show you exactly how to know what to say and when to say it – when it comes to winning those contracts rapidly.
You no longer have to be at a loss for what to say to get prospects to turn the corner. And they’ll stop ghosting you too. Say goodbye to awkward sales conversations. You’ll start to experience rapid sales results and you’ll have contracts signed in record time. - Then we’re going to broaden your mindset and transform what you think is even possible.
You’ll go from thinking like a tradesman to understanding the secrets of a successful business-owner mindset. You’ll learn how to wear the right hat at the right time to ensure success in every area of your business. (And this flows over powerfully to your home life too!)
By now we have a solid process for creating really profitable estimates, putting you back in control – eliminating the sales problem permanently, and getting those contracts signed – actually winning jobs you want to do because you know you’re going to make money.
And that is starting to positively impact your home life too. In fact, most BATTLEGROUND members say they are finally able to provide in the way they always wanted to, and are blown away by the unexpected yet incredible benefits the program has on their family life too.

“Had our first meetings with clients today that were properly vetted beforehand, and given a ballpark range before setting up a meeting. We signed approximately $250,000 worth of work in 3 meetings!!!! WTF!!!! This shit clearly works!! My wife also signed a design contract with one of those clients as well.”
– Scott, Bungay Renos
“A customer called me yesterday wanting to get a quote. she told me she always gets 3 quotes. After talking to her and her husband on the phone for about 20 minutes (not even about the project) she told me they are going with me and are not getting any more quotes. We sold them right over the phone. If you are on the fence, just do it. The longer you wait the more money and time you’re wasting. It has completely turned my business around from where it was last year.”
– Steven, The Fence Company
“Man I’m blown away. We destroyed company sales records this week. Seems like everything I touched, we got. Sold more in 5 days than my total revenue for my first 3 years in business combined at 50% GP. We broke past our company goal and record of $600,000 Q2. Also we are at $1.3 million so far this year. And we did $1.7m all of last year. I’m excited!”

The third and final problem is that if you’re not a digital marketing professional, 99% of the time any marketing you try just doesn’t work.
People make entire professions out of being marketers, and let's face it; you’re no more a marketer than they are a contractor (I’m sure you’ve seen your fair share of home handyman work gone wrong!) So let’s fix that. Having worked with thousands of Contractors just like you, we’ve gotten marketing for contractors down to an art form. We will show you the simplest methods that just downright work. All you need to do is copy and paste.
- First up, we’ll turn your phone into a selling machine.
Goodbye reactive marketing, hello new lead enquiries. You’ll be confident because you’ll know exactly what to say to convert enquiries over the phone into strong prospects. - Next we’ll show you how to create undeniable social proof.
Your business will start to be recognized as you develop a high quality, reliable reputation online. You’ll develop the authority to ensure you’ll not only be noticed – but your clients will see you as the no-brainer choice, and will feel stupid to go with anyone else. - Then, we’ll install a daily lead generation engine into your business.
You’ll learn how to set yourself apart, so that you’re not swimming in the same pool as your competitors. You’ll go from invisible to seen, and your sales calendar will fill with new job enquiries.
This is how…
“After applying just a few of the techniques I learned I managed to sell $103k in the past 2 weeks. Now to some that’s not anything huge, but for a guy that has managed to consistently average $250k a year in sales, that was a huge win for us. This has been a record breaking month in sales and brings my year to date to almost $200k and its only March. Let’s see if I can’t hit $500k this year!!!”
– Alex, Fiferum Construction
“Fast forward to a few weeks ago. I get a call from Jeremy. He leads with “I want you to know I remember our conversation, and I have a set of plans I’d like you to look at.” He could hear the apprehension in my voice. “This project is a long term client of ours, and quality is the driving factor. In fact, pricing is probably the least of the concern.” Ok, you’ve got my attention! Lol. Well, I don’t know yet if I have that project or not, but my high anchor on that one is $185K! (For tile only, in 2 bathrooms!) He reached out again asking me for a number for a second project. Sure, $83K+/-. After a little back and forth to clarify the exact scope, I received a call today awarding me the project based on my quick estimate of $77,444! Hell yeah!”
– Matt, Paragon Tile Installation
“Three short months ago I was rarely posting anything on my business pages. Over the past month I’ve been doing every single thing that Tom tells us to do. We’re getting more notice and actually starting to see a rise in people reaching out to us. We aren’t where we want to be by no means but with the help of you bad ass people we're on the right train that's headed in the right direction.”
– Bo, Red Barn Designs

THIS is the BATTLEGROUND where you get to conquer The Contractor Fight.
Any one of these things can move the needle immediately for your business, and my experience is that ONE of these is going to stand out as the BIG opportunity for you specifically… So we’ll be able to spend more time on that one with you.

This is literally like having a team of coaches on retainer where you can get help with any specific situation you’re facing, so you’ll never be more than a few hours away from the help you need.
Let's face it.
Contractors live on an island.
Your family doesn't understand.
Your friends don't get it.
Your customers don't want to hear about it.
And your employees certainly aren't meant to bear your cross.
So where do you turn for support?
BATTLEGROUND is a community and coaching specifically for you. Created by contractors for contractors.
We’ve called this program BATTLEGROUND because that’s where we come to join you. In the thick of it. On your side. Fighting for you. Fighting with you. Supporting you at every step.
Showing you how to WIN.
BATTLEGROUND is the secret weapon other contractors don’t want you to know about.
And we know that because that’s what our members tell us.

The P.S.
Any time you invest time and money to work with a coach, there’s a risk. Right? What if it doesn’t work? What if it’s not as good as he said? What if it’s all just a load of BS?
So let’s look at the best and worst case scenarios.
Best Case: Over the next 90 days you transform your business and you 10X your investment (minimum!). You’re winning new, profitable jobs. You’re back in control. Chaos no longer reigns supreme. You’re making good money AND you’re spending more time with your family. You get new skills, a ton of confidence, and the systems we install mean you can keep growing every month.
That’s the best case.
But what about the worst case?
Worst case: Maybe it doesn’t work. Maybe you’re a few weeks in and decide it’s not for you. Or the content isn't quite right, or maybe you jumped in too soon.
In which case, let me make this super easy for you with my 10X Guarantee.
Complete your first 90 Days in BATTLEGROUND. Invest just five hours per week by attending your personalized coaching calls, completing our worksheets and checklists, earning your green belt in our Shin-Fu sales process, and learning everything you need to run a profitable contracting business. After that, if BATTLEGROUND has not added at least $18,550 worth of value to your business, ten times what you paid for it over the first 90 days, my team will personally work with you until it does. Worst case is you’ll be smarter and you’ll still have made money.
The truth is, I know BATTLEGROUND works. I've seen it time and time again with people who complete their first 90 days in BATTLEGROUND. They make HUGE strides in their business. That's why I'm 100% confident I can make you this offer.
In fact, I've seen contractors 100x their investment in BATTLEGROUND! It's that powerful.
I’ve purposely created BATTLEGROUND so that there’s no risk to you.
