How do I be an effective general contractor?

I am based out of Wisconsin and have recently started to invest into realestate. Seeing as how I have background in construction, I obtained my pre-dwelling contractor license and am looking to get fully licensed in a few years to work on bigger projects. I am asking the BP community on what they think or wish every general contractor would do or know. What are some things or practices that I should have in order to be that 5-star contractor?

Do what you say you are going to do. If you tell someone you'll be there at a certain time show up at that agreed upon time or communicate if you need to reschedule/running late. Under promise and over deliver. Communication is my number one thing.
