In this episode of the Fitz & Franson Show, we sit down with Liz Berman, General Manager at DiStefano Brothers Concrete Coatings
— a Penntek Concrete Coatings dealer leading the way in Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Southeastern Massachusetts.
Liz shares her journey from running a Chamber of Commerce to building one of the fastest-growing concrete coatings divisions on the East Coast. From working side-by-side with her husband Tony, to scaling from 1 crew to 13+, Liz reveals what it takes to lead a team, build culture, and keep growth smart — without losing the trust of customers or employees.
🔥 Highlights in this conversation:
Why “never half-ass two things, whole-ass one thing” became her leadership motto
What it’s really like being a woman leader in construction & remodeling
How she turned COVID shutdowns into an opportunity to grow coatings while others stalled
The blunt truth about leadership: “Sometimes you’re the villain in someone’s story — and you have to be okay with that.”
How DiStefano’s culture is so strong their sales reps quote the core values to each other in texts
Why continuous improvement (1% better every day) matters more than chasing perfection
👷 Shoutout to Liz and the team at DiStefano Brothers Concrete Coatings
for the incredible work they’re doing with Penntek Concrete Coatings.
