Subscriptions For Success

Staying current with business trends, technology and just generally provoking outside-the-box thinking has a lot to do with staying current with industry subscriptions.

The magazine and audio subscriptions on this page are all highly recommended.

I read these every month and many are the basis for the Article Blog section. Do you have a favorite magazine or other subscription? Send me an e-mail.

Audio Subscriptions

Most likely you spend a lot of time on the road. Most people in construction spend 15+ hours on the road driving every week. Use this time productively to learn more about the business.

Key Paid Subscriptions

Most trade subscriptions are free but there are a couple of subscriptions that I always pay for and read regularly.  ENR provides an overview of the industry Worldwide while Journal of Accountancy touches on enough subjects to keep you updated with what your CPA firm is or should be working on. 

Know your industry, know your money.

Selected Free Trade Publications

This selection of trade publications will give you good perspective on the industry, general trends on business management and a variety of other ideas.

Don't overlook management ideas from other trades - you would be surprised at how many good ideas are in every issue of Qualified Remodeler. 

Stay informed about technology - there are few things that will change the world more for contractors in the next decade than technology.

The construction equipment you use makes a huge difference in your production - stay current.
