Welcome to the Restoration Domination Podcast with your host, Rico Garcia.  In this episode, we are joined by Brandon Reece and Chris Nordyke of Floodlight Consulting Group.  Floodlight Consulting is a business consulting company for the Restoration Industry.  We discussed the changes that we see coming in the industry, more effective ways of marketing, mentorship, the technology that could change the industry, and more!

Biggest Takeaways:
1. The Restoration Industry is rapidly changing and businesses are going to need to adapt and try new things in order to survive.
2.  New Technology could completely change the way we conduct crucial aspects of our businesses and the positions we hire for.
3. Leadership starts with self-discipline and the modeling of the behaviors we want to see.
