Show Notes: 
From pink plungers to private jets... this episode breaks down how 1-Tom Plumber went from a startup idea to 100+ franchises, a 7X business exit, and the kind of scale that changes lives.

I sit down with Rocky Hensley, the man behind the system, to talk about:
🚀 How to build a business worth buying (instead of one you just want to sell)
💰 The secret to hitting a 7X multiple on an exit
⏱ Why the real commodity is time—and how to condense it with systems
🔧 How plumbing became the “boat anchor” that unlocked millions in restoration revenue
🔥 Why most business owners fail (and how to avoid being one of them)

Whether you run a restoration company, plumbing business, or any service-based business, this conversation will rewire how you think about growth, scaling, and exits.
