David Lupberger draws on more than two decades of experience in the residential remodeling field to work with remodelers in developing proven business systems. Through his work in the remodeling industry, he hopes to redefine the way the remodeling industry operates so that the trust between quality Remodelers, their customers, suppliers, and trade contractors can be leveraged and improved.Lupberger has been involved with custom home building and remodeling for over 30 years. Over 90 percent of his work came from repeat and referral business, demonstrating the trust he developed with clients.That experience in managing customer expectations led him to write a book called, Managing the Emotional Homeowner, which has become one of the bibles of the remodeling industry and helped hundreds of remodelers improve the level of service they provide clients.Lupberger believes fervently that the best customer service only comes when a remodeler can deliver consistent results, which happens only with proven systems. He spent nearly 4 years writing the Remodelers Turnkey Program. This series of manuals is a basic how-to text on running a remodeling company. He recently authored the Home Asset Management Plan, a business system showing contractors how to implement a “client for life” program with their homeowner clients.He travels extensively, speaking to thousands of remodelers across the country and is a regular on the seminar series at national trade shows. He is also a columnist for numerous industry trade magazines.

Millie Hindes was born and raised in a suburb of Columbus, OH. Millie was bartending when she met a storm chaser, moved to Portland OR, fell in love with the town, riding a truck, climbing a ladder and getting on roofs, and sweating her “tookus off”... Millie chased storms for a few years, in 9 different cities... then she had her last TERRIBLE boss (story of climbing 10:12) and opened her business about 10 years ago. And YES she is the founder - it is not her father's business, it is not her husband's business... She “OWNs THIS B****!!!” ;) Watergate Roofing: covers up what's inside. What makes them different is the company outlook and motto: Do it right. Do it well. The office is a happy, fun place to be - Nick, her “Beyonce” (we’ll expand on that) and she, has learned the importance of positive reinforcement with the staff. “EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES - it's how you fix them that counts.” Millie started taking the growth of the company more seriously after she had Louie, her 4-year-old. Now Watergate Roofing is in a growth phase, and she doesn’t have control of everything- which is SUPER difficult to deal with, she says. Millie states, “I don't know all my customers, we get leads off the interweb, they're not all referrals - stuff goes wrong that I don't know about - and I am expected to deal with this sh** like an adult!!” Amanda Fisher is the company's sales coach and management/strategy coach - she helps the company back up out of the day-to-day - so they can see the BIG picture - long-term growth, hiring, firing. Amanda helps Watergate Roofing make important decisions.On this episode, we talk about ways to keep your company at the top of consumers' minds.
