residential service work = cash flow, reliability, scalable systems. most owners don't realize how important this is until the PE groups coming knocking to acquire
Want better cash flow? Start residential. 👉 Same-day payments, recurring jobs, scalable systems. That foundation later unlocked $70K+ commercial contracts for Johnny and Sergio.

Incredible convo with the 🐐’s @SqueegeeGod @sergiosilesky
🍩 From donuts to millions. In just 5 years, Johnny & Sergio went from their first “payment” — a box of donuts — to running a multi-million dollar home service portfolio. 👉 But make no mistake: it wasn’t overnight. It was years of grind, failure, and persistence.

the world's best products aren't just powerful, they're simple... "Fred Davis showed that people adopt a technology if they perceive it as useful and easy to use. These two dimensions - perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEOU) - are still the strongest

The biggest problem I see in home services marketing—asymmetric information. Owners are often fooled by these "snake oil" salesmen who are offering egregious services like "500 backlinks/month" I encourage every SMB owner to take time, and research. Talk with people you trust
Most home service businesses are wasting money on websites that don't actually move the needle. Owners don’t know what they don’t know when it comes to SEO - and “snake oil” solutions are everywhere. Local SEO isn’t just another box to check. It’s the make-or-break factor for

"What's the highest priority today?" I ask myself this question every morning, write a list, and chip away at those tasks. I can't tell you how incredibly effective this can be, especially when you pair it with high-levels of focus. Can be difficult at times with calls,

Spent Wed-Fri at the Lawn and Landscape Technology Conference. Incredible time. Most common question I got? "How do I adapt my online presence for ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc?" Didn't surprise me. SMB owners know that if they don't adapt—they will fall behind. Generative

Thanks for having us @BryanShankman!!
Most home service businesses are missing out on easy wins online. There’s a big knowledge gap in SEO, web, and digital marketing for trades - and most owners don't know where to start. That’s why the team at @getrebolt built an AI-powered, all-in-one kit to help any home

We've seen an increasing number of our customers get leads from generative engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.) Curious to see how this trends. My take is that the same way your local business got found in "SEO" will be the same for "GEO" (Generative Engine Optimization) 1)

Pitching the @getrebolt vision with my co-founder @laissezaf at @AntlerGlobal Expand SF was unforgettable. As a @UCBerkeley alum, the Bay Area holds a special place in my heart—seeing our Day-Zero investor launch here felt truly full circle. If you're a founder building in SF,

Spoke with a Roofer out of Miami, FL. Been in business for 20 years. Since he was 18. Still does everything with pen and paper. No website, no social media (only a GBP). Has never used a piece of software. Get's all his business through word of mouth. It's crazy to me how this

Met with one of the largest providers of Garage Door Services in SoCal and he told me he's in the office from 530am and often doesn't leave till 9 or 10pm. Sat in his office for just 1 hour and he got 6 different calls—ranging from his PE group, to his ops team, to cold callers
