Direct mail isn't dead… in fact, it's one of the most underrated marketing tools for home service businesses today. In this episode, we sit down with the PostcardMania team to break down how print marketing can drive measurable, predictable results when done the right way.

We cover best practices for building an effective mailer campaign, what separates high-performing postcards from wasted ad spend, and how contractors and local businesses can use direct mail to consistently generate leads, win new customers, and scale their brand in a crowded market.

In this episode, I break down why we re-drafted nearly our entire team over the last 12 months — from fuel and payroll to insurance, CPA, and bookkeeping. Growth changes the game, and the people who got you here aren't always the ones who can take you where you're going. We talk about how to evaluate your team, when it's time to make a change, and why drafting the right people is one of the most important leadership decisions you'll ever make.

Customer experience doesn't happen by accident. It's designed. In this episode, I sit down with Kristen Kiley from Leanscaper to break down how to intentionally map the customer experience from first contact through long-term retention.

Recorded at Leanscaper, we walk through the key customer touchpoints most contractors overlook, how small gaps create big problems, and how designing the journey on purpose leads to better retention, referrals, and long-term growth.
