On this episode of the Quit Getting Screwed Podcast, Karalynn cracks open her book Trust Your Gut and reads Chapter One. She shares the cautionary tale of Carl, a masonry contractor who lost a lawsuit—and payment—after relying on a handshake deal. The lesson? No signed contract, no protection.
Cromeens explains how written agreements set clear expectations and shield contractors legally, urging pros to walk clients through each section in plain language and keep contracts updated. Skip the paperwork, and you risk losing both money and recourse. She closes with an invitation to connect and grab her book for more real-world contractor advice.
