Branding as Sweet as Honey: Adam Rossman's Standout Roofing Strategy 47:30

for 4 weeks siden47:30

47:30

What happens when you dare to stand out in an industry where everyone looks the same? Adam Ross of Honeybee Roofing discovered the answer when he traded in traditional red, white, and blue branding for bright yellow trucks that literally stop traffic. "When I had one truck, people told me they saw our trucks everywhere," Adam shares, describing how his distinctive branding transformed his business visibility in Rockford, Illinois. Within just 30 days of rebranding, their SEO performance skyrocketed, proving that sometimes the boldest moves bring the sweetest rewards. But Honeybee Roofing's success stems from something much deeper than eye-catching colors. Adam has built his $2.25 million company on relationship foundations that most contractors overlook. While competitors chase storms hours away, Adam focuses on serving his local community with what he calls "unreasonable hospitality." His philosophy is simple yet profound: "We treat our clients like neighbors because they are neighbors." This relationship-centered approach has yielded remarkable results. Adam recounts how a single relationship led to a contract for 14 duplexes—a job that generated more revenue than their entire previous year combined. "I had two hours of work into that specific project but years of work into the relationship," he explains, revealing the compounding power of consistent connection. Beyond business strategy, Adam shares candid insights about balancing entrepreneurship with family life and faith. From establishing financial systems to creating meaningful routines, he demonstrates that success comes from small, consistent actions rather than grand gestures. His humility shines through when he advises: "Be open to the fact that other people know things you don't." Whether you're a roofing contractor looking to differentiate your brand, an entrepreneur seeking sustainable growth strategies, or a business owner navigating work-life balance, Adam's journey offers practical wisdom you can apply immediately.

From Heart Attacks to Partnerships: A Roofing Owner's Journey to Sustainability 41:13

for 5 weeks siden41:13

What happens when a roofing company owner faces his own mortality through a series of heart attacks that were repeatedly misdiagnosed? For Austin Watterson of Royal Roofing, this life-altering experience completely transformed his approach to business growth and sustainability. Austin's journey begins with an unexpected background—starting as a Sonic Drive-in partner at just 19 years old before transitioning to roofing at 30. Unlike many in the industry who build their businesses through door knocking, Austin leveraged his natural talent for relationship building. "I've knocked less than probably 500 doors in my lifetime," he reveals, having built his company instead through strategic alliances, referral networks, and later, digital marketing. The conversation takes a profound turn when Austin shares the story of his health crisis. For months, he experienced what doctors misdiagnosed as back pain and muscle spasms. These were actually multiple heart attacks affecting his thoracic spine rather than presenting with the stereotypical chest pain. "Sixty percent of heart attacks are in your back, not in your chest," Austin explains, hoping his story might save others who mistake similar symptoms for muscle issues. This brush with mortality forced Austin to confront an uncomfortable question: what would happen to his business if he wasn't around to run it? The answer led him to completely rethink his approach to growth and ownership. "I'd rather have part of a watermelon than an entire grape," he shares, explaining why he's now pursuing mergers and partnerships to build Royal Roofing toward becoming a $100 million company within three years. Austin's wisdom extends to all roofing business owners wondering how to scale their companies without burning out. His advice? Define your end goal, build systems that don't rely entirely on your presence, and don't be afraid to share ownership with the right partners. "Most guys in business, if they were to take a month off work, what would their company look like?" he challenges listeners to consider. Ready to transform your roofing business from a one-person show into a sustainable enterprise that could survive without you? Listen now to discover why Austin believes the days of "working off Excel spreadsheets and Big Chief tablets" are over, and how the right partnerships might be the key to unlocking your company's true potential.…

What happens when a football coach with 32 seasons of experience decides to tackle the roofing industry? Ken Blankenship's remarkable journey from coaching NFL players to building Superior Roofing offers powerful lessons for anyone struggling with sales teams, business growth, or finding meaning in their work. Ken entered roofing in 2018 without knowing what drip edge or underlayment was—yet made nearly $400,000 in commissions his first year. His secret wasn't technical knowledge but a deeply human approach to sales. "Everything is about relationship building," Ken explains. "If you don't know how to handle that human interaction, it wears on you mentally and emotionally." The conversation reveals why door-to-door sales feels so challenging despite being physically simple. Ken's coaching background shines through as he shares techniques for handling rejection, reading subtle client cues, and transforming confrontational moments into meaningful connections. His story about knocking on doors after they've been slammed in his face—offering compassion rather than sales pitches—illustrates the power of genuine human concern in business. Having launched Superior Roofing's residential division just months before this conversation, Ken's fresh perspective on growth challenges resonates with both new and established business owners. His "five-minute rule" for handling disappointment and failure offers practical wisdom for anyone facing setbacks. The episode culminates with a fascinating story about eating off strangers' plates at a high-end restaurant that perfectly encapsulates Ken's philosophy: "What's the worst that can happen when you try?" Whether you're in roofing, sales, leadership, or simply interested in building better relationships, this conversation offers rare insights into growing businesses through genuine human connection. As Ken puts it, "I'd rather try and fail than not try at all."…

Yet his perspective on these setbacks offers a masterclass in resilience: "Everything's a lesson, nothing's a failure. You're only a failure if you quit." Matt shares his journey from reluctant industry participant to passionate business builder, detailing how he transitioned from the oil and gas sector to founding Trinity Roofing nearly a decade ago. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Matt reveals how he's completely transforming his sales approach with an inside-outside sales model that's already delivering remarkable results just two months after implementation. Perhaps most valuable is Matt's insight into maintaining mental toughness during business challenges. His morning routine combining physical training with prayer and positive self-talk provides a practical framework for other owners facing similar struggles. "If I tell myself that I'm strong and resolute... eventually it's going to be who I am, because I'm speaking it into existence." Whether you're struggling with business challenges or looking to refine your systems, this conversation delivers actionable wisdom from someone in the trenches.
