## Resource

On this episode of TSpark Talks , Ben is out sick so Travis welcomed his brother, Lee, to take part and discuss how he migrated from the world of sales into construction. They also talked about how the contrusction world is a world full of managing expectations. It's a personal industry working with families, oftentimes, or business owners where livelihoods are being worked on, and construction companies need to remember that and clients can work to remember that the companies, like TSpark, are really interviewing with the client for a job interview. It's a two-way street. Thanks to Lee for stopping by in this episode! Listen to Our Archive of Episodes Missed an episode or want more real-world construction insights?
