In this episode of Pest Control Legends, host Danny Leibrandt sits down with Jonas Olson for a deep dive into how he built Pest Badger from $0 to $10M in under five years, with projections of $15M next year and $30M soon after. Jonas shares the strategies behind his rapid growth, from recruiting and developing top talent to instilling discipline, grit, and a winning culture across 15+ locations.

The conversation covers everything from the impact of Jonas’s five years of sobriety on his leadership, to the EOS framework and KPIs that keep his company running at scale, to the tough calls on hiring executives who can 10x capacity. We also explore the difference in mindset between seven-figure and eight-figure owners, the role of brand and media (including Pest Badger’s massive following of 150k on YouTube, 70k on TikTok, and 40k on Facebook), and the lessons Jonas has picked up from spending time with Patrick Bet-David and Alex Hormozi.

Recorded while Jonas and Danny were working on the Pest Control Millionaires program and their upcoming book Zip Code Kings (publishing October 20), this episode offers pest control owners a rare look at the systems, mindset, and execution required to scale from startup to industry leader.
