Miller coaches for success
Article Abstract:
Incoming National Roofing Contractors Assn Pres John Miller believes that consolidation will not affect the roof contracting industry as adversely some industry experts believe. He opined that a tighter focus on profitability in a largely volume-driven industry is one of the key challenges facing roofing contractors. If industry players could achieve this, he believes they could subsequently devote more resources to pressing issues such as industry image, workforce problems and insurance company concerns.
