Welcome back to Season 2 of Brush Busters! This time we’ve got Coach Gavin in the hot seat alongside one of our new Brush Busters, Coach Lucas Mangotich.

This episode is packed with honest answers and no-fluff advice on what actually keeps contractors stuck: team chaos, leadership confusion, and trying to grow without systems.

If you’ve ever said “no one wants to work anymore” or “I can’t trust my crew to do it right,” this one’s for you.

We talk about:

• Why your crew keeps letting you down (and what to do about it)

• What Lucas learned building a crew from scratch (and the mistakes you can skip)

• The shift from tradesman to true team leader

• And why clarity is more powerful than any CRM

  
  

Whether you're new to the painting industry or neck deep in the grind, this episode will remind you: you're not alone—and there’s a better way to build your business.
