In this From the Vault episode of Brush Busters, we're tackling the gritty stuff: unpredictable weather, unpredictable employees, and unpredictable clients. 💥

We share advice on:

• How to schedule around bad weather
  
• Holding your team accountable without blowing up morale

In this solo episode, I break down exactly how to build a door-to-door (D2D) marketing team that can generate consistent, high-quality leads—without relying on expensive ads. 🤑

I’ll walk you through how I used D2D to scale painting businesses fast, from choosing the right neighborhoods to hiring hungry, positive marketers who can book 30+ estimates a week.

If you’re ready to grow your painting company and want a low-cost, high-impact strategy, this is it.

Learn how to:
• Pick the best neighborhoods to start your 2D2 Approach
• Recruit the right people (even if you’ve never hired a marketer)
• Train your team to get results on day one
• Use simple tools like Strava for accountability
• Generate up to $225k/month in sales without increasing ad spend

If you’ve been waiting to try D2D, this episode will give you everything you need to get started—fast

In this solo episode, I open up about what it’s really like when your painting business starts to grow—but instead of feeling successful, you feel stuck.

You’re preparing quotes late at night. Crews are texting you at all hours, and somehow you’re still the only one holding it all together. 😵

I’ve lived it. And I’ve helped a lot of other painters through it too.

This is for anyone who’s tired of grinding nonstop and wants to get back in the driver’s seat—building a business that gives you freedom, not just more responsibility.

And while we wait for Season 2 of Brush Busters to drop, I had to bring back this episode because these lessons still hit hard. 😎

In this episode, I sat down with Coach Gavin Simpson to talk about the real reason some painters grind all year… and still feel like they’re falling behind.

We dig into the exact strategies we’ve used with clients to help them niche down, land six-figure projects, and finally build a business that doesn’t rely on them being on-site 24/7.

If you’re quoting jobs at night, chasing crews during the day, and stuck doing all the things yourself—you’ll want to hear this. 🎧
