About L-E-E.com
Learn-Electrical-Estimating.com was created as a free industry resource so that contractors can continually increase their knowledge of electrical estimating, better manage their business and successfully grow revenue and profits. As a rookie contractor, John Kelsey struggled to understand electrical estimating. In his early days in the business, he received a lot of well-intentioned, but very bad “how to” estimating advice from other contractors. John’s objective in developing this site is for others to learn about methods, tools and electical estimating software in a simple and quick manner, without the long trial and error of hundreds of mistakes.
