Joe Bates, SC Fabrication - Get out of your own way, Pigment Loading, Proper Mixing

Jon and Brandon chat with Joe Bates about getting out of the way of ourselves. We all create self-imposed obstacles that make our lives harder in certain ways. This is a multifaceted conversation, but this week we are focusing on training. Forgoing mentorship and quality hands-on workshops from successful business owners is a tough row to hoe, they are worth their weight in gold. We also chat about how to calculate pigment loading, blocking out the undersides of concrete countertops, and how to properly mix concrete in a bucket, despite what the unqualified experts may say. We do this for a living, and have for decades - this is why we do this podcast, to share our real-world experience with you. Want to continue the conversation?
