@STLChrisH@msaskin The one searcher I know who went BK was self-funded with an SBA. I agree this isn’t talked about enough.

@STLChrisH This will likely save someone’s life, but they’ll never know it! Driving is the mostly dangerous part of every industry with hours of drive time per day.
@STLChrisH For those that do successfully make this shift, I would bet most of them have a strong relationship with an executive coach/mentor to recognize the need to change and make the substantial effort to do it
@STLChrisH A lot of people I’ve spoken with value the membership purely based on the monthly fee charged, but this misses the forest for the trees. Could you share your average revenue per member per year? What % of members get some additional service/install other than their yearly tuneup?
@zwilson@WilsonCompanies@thehvacjack Thank you! Still not sure what it takes to get illegitimate reviews removed, but I certainly appreciate you flagging it. Of course, the best way to counteract it is to get more 5 star reviews!

Shoutout to @WilsonCompanies and @thehvacjack for unveiling the mysteries of Google LSA to me and other OwnedAndOperated conference attendees last week. Following their guidance, we now have our first "Google verified job" review
@shalomnissim11 @WilsonCompanies@thehvacjack It’s hard to prove directly, but these reviews can boost your ranking for Google LSA substantially more than regular GMB reviews
