Series 3 of this set of class will begin in January 2023 \nSession 1: Customer Service & Sales (October 19\, 2022) \nMost business owners are looking for the latest marketing strategy\, a new source of leads\, or a fairy-tale salesperson who is going to come in and turn all the prospects into customers without breaking a sweat. As awesome as these strategies sound\, they rarely work out. But wait! There’s good news! The secret to growing your business is very likely right under your nose. In fact\, we have found that most businesses obliviously leave a percentage of their current revenues on the table every year. This workshop will show you a proven sales methodology that will not only bring in new customers but create repeat business for years to come. \n  \nSession 2: Understanding Your Numbers (November 2\, 2022) \nAre you confused by your financial statements? Do you have trouble recognizing what they are telling you? This workshop will help you quickly master the fundamentals and develop a comprehensive understanding of how they work\, how to interpret them accurately\, and how to use their information to make more effective\, better-informed business decisions that have a positive impact on your organization’s bottom line. You will also learn the importance of a dashboard and how to easily set one up for your company. \n  \nSession 3: Personal Performance (November 16\, 2022) \nCritical thinking is a lost art. Whether you are refining operations\, evaluating strategic plans\, or brainstorming better ways to assist customers\, businesses with the best ideas come out on top. This workshop will teach you how to recognize key mistakes that company leaders make which undermine their effectiveness at running and growing a company.  You will also walk away with tips that you can implement immediately to improve your personal performance and help you reach your full potential to build an amazing team.  If YOU want to build an amazing team\, it starts with YOU! \n  \nSession 4: What is Your USP? & Communication (November 30\, 2022) \nAre you tired of feeling invisible in your field\, of not being recognized for your talents and expertise? Are you losing potential customers to your competitors solely because your prices are higher? Many professionals have felt the same way and decided to do something about it. The answer lies in the strength and value of your USP. This workshop will teach you the art and science of identifying what sets you apart and turning that into a brand that will make you more valuable and memorable than others in your field. \nThis Seminar is Hosted by ABC Member Paramount Business Development

SUMMARY:Dealing with Delay: From Contract Negotiations to Claims
DESCRIPTION:Description: The presentation will provide strategies for contractors to protect themselves against the impacts of delays and will identify practical steps that a contractor can take at various stages of a project\, from bid to close-out\, that will increase the contractor’s chances of successfully obtaining additional time and compensation.  The strategies presented will include: \n\naddressing schedule requirements at the proposal stage and negotiating contract language to reduce the risk of cost impacts associated with material shortages\, force majeure\, changes\, unforeseen conditions\, delays cause by others\, and non-excusable delays attributable to the contractor;\ndocumentation practices during the performance of the work to avoid contractual pitfalls and effectively supporting claims for additional time and compensation; and\,\nsuccessfully resolving disputes and pursuing claims for additional time and compensation as a result of delay and impacts.\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\nProvide an understanding of basic “delay” related terminology;\nPresent bidding and pre-construction strategies to mitigate delay and impact risk;\nIdentify key contract language posing risk in relation to delays and impacts;\nProvide guidance on why and how certain standard contract language (i.e. “no damages for delay” clauses and liquidated damages clauses) should be modified in pre-contract negotiations;\nOutline steps for effectively documenting delay during construction to support requests for additional time and money;\nIdentify contractual pitfalls to be avoided during construction to preserve the contractor’s rights to additional time and money;\nProvide guidance on proactively addressing disputes during performance of the work and after completion;\nPresent an overview of how a delay claim is properly developed\, supported\, and prosecuted to give the claim the best chance of success.\n\nThis seminar will be hosted by ABC Eastern PA Member: \nHENDRICK PHILLIPS SALZMAN & SIEGEL\, P.C.
