Chantel and Ryan Finch interviewed Brent Garrett, author of "30 Days to a Better Business," about scaling businesses and AI implementation. 

Brent shared his background in plumbing and air conditioning, growing his business to 15 employees before selling it to ServiceMaster, and currently running a coaching business for small business owners. The discussion focused on Brent's approach to AI implementation in his plumbing company, including using tools like Gemini and Claude to streamline operations, automate processes, and create proprietary apps for gross margin control. 

Brent emphasized the importance of thinking about AI as a tool to rebuild businesses from scratch rather than simply adding it to existing operations, and highlighted that successful scaling requires strong leadership, proper pricing, and effective recruiting. The conversation also covered Brent's five key strategies for moving from the 80% of contractors doing less than $1.5M annually to the 15-20% controlling 60% of the $125 billion industry revenue.
