Everyoneβs focused on gas prices. Donβt buy into the hype.
I did an analysis of financial statements I had from 2025. Across 600+ home service businesses, fuel expense was 4.6% of revenue. Wages were 57%.
You donβt grow by optimizing 4%.
You grow by fixing the 57%.
Every home service business goes through three stages.
First, you DO the work. That gets you to $100K.
Then you TEACH others to do it. That gets you to $1M.
Finally, you LEAD the people who teach. That gets you to $10M.
Stop driving around fixing your crew's mistakes. Hold employees accountable by making them resolve issues with clients themselves. Then, improve training. Better yet, cut the service causing 80% of the problems. Simplify and standardize. #Business#Accountability#Leadership
Stop bragging about being 12 months booked out. If you're that far ahead, you're likely underpriced, scared of a recession, or lack confidence in your lead generation. Raise your prices and master your pipeline. #BusinessStrategy#Pricing#LeadGen
Stop leaving money on the table. Scarcity + Urgency = Sales. Limited spots? A deadline? Make them act NOW. Offers are meaningless without it. Customers always think 'later,' which means never. #SalesTips#BusinessGrowth#MarketingStrategy
Stop overthinking equipment and trucks when you're starting. Focus on getting customers. A 5% efficiency gain means nothing on $30k, but $50k on $1M. Grow first, then optimize. #BusinessGrowth#Entrepreneurship#Hustle
