What do garage doors, custom windows, and fast food have in common? According to Justin Bartley, they all rely on one thing: a reliable, repeatable system.

In this insightful conversation, Adi Klevit interviews Justin about how he built Next Door & Window into a scalable, systems-driven home improvement company. They discuss the customer journey in depth—starting from the first inquiry to post-installation follow-up—and the importance of managing expectations every step of the way. Justin shares how his team created a one-page visual timeline to communicate what happens during the 8–10 week custom order process, minimizing anxiety and maximizing trust.
