    General Construction Firm

    I've recently started a construction company and I'm looking for ideas to make this into a fastlane business. A lot of industries are already being digitized and I think the construction industry will be the next. I'm looking for opinions on growth hacking this (e.g. leads, sourcing, manpower)
