The Brutal Truth
About Your Business
You're working 70-hour weeks but somehow still broke. Your margins shrunk from 18% to 9% while you were busy fighting fires. You're losing thousands per project in unbilled change orders, and the operations manager you desperately need costs more than you can afford.
You didn't build a business—you built a job that owns you. We've helped 312 builders escape this exact trap, not through more leads or marketing gimmicks, but through systematic transformation that creates predictable profit and owner freedom.

What Our Clients Say

Maria V. President, Rabina Builders "Our sales process felt like guesswork. In just six weeks, Grant and his team helped us install a clear, tech-enabled system that brought immediate predictability to our pipeline." Jessica Chen Owner, Anderson Design + Build "Finally have processes that make sense for us. The MAP helped set up tech that actually simplifies things, didn't just add more logins." Daniel P. Owner, Builder Brothers Group "Our lead process was a mess. Grant helped us get it dialed in. Finally know where qualified leads are coming from and how to close them."

“Too Many Failed…”
After 15+ years in construction, I saw talented builders trapped—working endless hours, risking burnout, and missing out on family life. The breaking point came when a close friend, a brilliant remodeler, nearly lost everything, not from lack of skill, but from a business that couldn't run without him.
This inspired GO First. Combining Cognitive Neuroscience with deep construction expertise, we developed the AI-powered FrameWork™. It’s a proven system that has helped 312+ builders reclaim their lives, scaling their businesses by focusing on the right things, not just working harder.

Our transformative approach isn't just about efficiency—it's about empowering construction business owners to reclaim their time and drive predictable profits. We don't offer generic advice; we install tailored AI-powered systems that make your business run like a well-oiled machine.

6-Week Transformation, Not 6-Month Contracts

Our MAP™ (Method, Accountability, Performance) program is a rapid, intensive process designed to install 10 core AI business systems in just six weeks, ensuring you achieve independence quickly. Weeks 1-2: Foundation We kickstart with a Critical19™ diagnostic to pinpoint profit leaks. Voice Guides capture your invaluable expertise, and our Daily Priority Engine helps eliminate those 70-hour workweeks. Weeks 3-4: Acceleration Implement the Sales Wizard to prevent margin bleed on bids, while FinSight AI™ reveals exactly where your money goes. LeadFlow™ pre-qualifies prospects, so you stop chasing tire-kickers. Weeks 5-6: Independence Team training ensures seamless adoption, making processes stick. Robust documentation ensures systems endure employee turnover, culminating in a final handoff where you no longer need our direct support.
