Wise Up Wednesday: Essential Contract Law

It’s Wise Up Wednesday!

A series of short emails to help you stay on top

Essential Contract Law

Our Wise Up Wednesday Guides are sometimes quirky, sometimes hard hitting, but always guaranteed to make you think and take no more than 2 minutes to read.

 

This week I have a very important but very straightforward message for you, and it’s this;

Without exception, those Specialist Contractors that take time to understand their contractual obligations, and do what needs to be done, when it needs to be done make £thousands more per year than those that don’t!

Specialist Contracting in the construction and engineering industry can be a complicated business and it’s no surprise that at some point you are going to face problems relating to commercial and contractual matters.

Our courses provide a practical no-nonsense approach to learning all the basic principles that can easily be understood and used for the benefit of your business on a day to day basis.

We have been successfully presenting courses for Specialist Sub-Contractors for 16 years and we have practised what we preach, because in that time our experts have recovered literally millions of pounds on behalf of Specialist Subcontractors using simple techniques that you can easily learn.

“Understand Your Contract to Minimise Risk and Maximise Profit”

“Introduction To Contractual Awareness and Using JCT Subcontracts”

WHAT WILL WE GET OUT OF IT?

The Secrets To Getting Paid and Minimising Risk and Maximising Profit!

Specialist Contractors don’t get paid because they don’t understand the contract or don’t apply it when they should. We will reveal all you need to know to enable you to understand the fundamentals of those subcontracts, and how to get paid.
