Roofing Success

AI is taking over. Fast.
Some roofers are getting scared. Others are getting rich.

In this video, I sit down with Rosalynn Verges (Roz), the founder of the AI Roofing Revolution, to show you how smart roofers are using AI to win more jobs, build better teams, and grow like crazy.

Roz shares the exact tools, workflows, and use cases she’s teaching roofing companies to automate their day-to-day…

So they can do more with less.
And dominate their markets.

From streamlining production schedules… to automating sales training… to using AI as a personal data analyst - this isn’t a “someday” thing. It’s happening now. And if you wait, you’ll be left behind.

This episode is a wake-up call to every roofing company owner, GM, and sales leader out there.

What happens when a true craftsman teams up with private equity?

Jason Eustis, President of Eustis Roofing, shares how they scaled from $30M to $60M without sacrificing install quality or company culture.

You’ll hear how he built the business around installers, turned repairs into a lead generation machine, and why they treat every roof like a 15-year marriage instead of a one-day job.

Jason also explains how they fight denied insurance claims, avoid bad leads, and why many KPIs can be misleading.

If you want to build a strong team, protect your brand, and deliver high-level service at scale, this episode is for you.

Would a customer really wait 3 months to work with YOU?

At Steadfast Roofing, they do. And Jon Starry shares how his team earned over 900 reviews in just 3 years by doing things most roofers skip.

Jon didn’t start in roofing, he was laid off from IT. But what he lacked in experience, he made up for with obsession: with automation, communication, and doing right by the customer.

⚠️ Spoiler alert: Reviews are the new currency of TRUST in the AI era.

In this episode, you'll see:
- Why repair jobs were the KEY to his first 100 reviews
- How his team asks for reviews and referrals on EVERY job
- The automations he uses to keep customers happy (even when they wait 3+ months!)
- The “secret sauce” behind building a trustworthy brand
- Why you DON’T need to start with a big team (just a crew and a dream)

Roofers: If you want to grow fast without selling your soul, this one’s for you.

When things aren’t working in your business…
You don’t need a tweak.
You need a HARD RESET.

In this episode, Martin Shepard (owner of Reset Roofing and host of the Hard Reset Podcast) reveals how he turned personal breakdowns into business breakthroughs.

✅ From building a values-driven company…
✅ To creating a culture of real teamwork (no more lone-wolf reps)…
✅ And treating every homeowner like they’re part of the project (literally blessing the roof on install day)...

Martin shares the behind-the-scenes of Reset Roofing — where former bartenders, missionaries, teachers, and even his wife (with no roofing experience) are helping him scale a company built on empathy, clarity, and customer obsession.

If you’re feeling burnout, culture issues, or like your roofing company is just off...
This episode is the RESET you need.

🎯 Real talk on:
- W2 vs. 1099 struggles
- Insurance audits and “dumb taxes”
- Balancing marriage & business (with therapy tools that WORK)
- Building an unshakable team culture
- And what to do when your business (or life) is at a breaking point

🚨 THIS IS A MUST-WATCH for any owner, leader, or sales rep who’s ready to reset, rebuild, and reignite their roofing company.

Most roofers hire the wrong people.
They’re too quick to say “yes.”
And too slow to fire.

That’s what David Dees did at first. And it cost him MILLIONS.
But then… he fixed it.

In this episode, David shares how he went from supply rep at Beacon…

To building a roofing company that wins new construction, service work, and multifamily jobs — in under 4 years.

You’ll see:
✅ Why your hires can sink your company (fast)
✅ How to build a team that actually lasts
✅ What to do if you’ve hired the wrong person
✅ And why some builders FIRED him… and then came back later

This is a must-watch for anyone trying to build a real roofing company. Not just sell jobs.

It’s all about people, systems, and culture.
David shows how to hire right, fire fast, and build a team you’re proud of.

You’re not losing sales because of price. You’re losing them because you avoid the word “no.”

In this interview with the one and only Dashaun Bryant, we unpack the real reason most roofing sales reps miss deals — and how learning the Art of Saying No could change everything.

Dashaun breaks down why “no” is the second-best answer in sales, how to get it early, and why reps MUST stop running from hard conversations like contingencies, deductibles, and paperwork. You'll hear the exact frameworks he's using to train teams nationwide — saving them time, weeding out the wrong customers, and closing more of the right deals.

Plus:
- Why conversations is better than presentations
- How to flip objections BEFORE they come up
- The “door-to-door proclamations” to own the sale
- What it really means to love the game

If you want to become a dangerous rep who owns the block, controls the sale, and gets chosen for how you lead — you need this episode.

- Know if your marketing is working
- Stop wasting money on junk leads
- Measure the 4 numbers that matter most
- Think like a GC (General Contractor) of your own marketing

I’ll also break down the BIGGEST money-wasting mistakes roofers make. (One member saved $121K just from what I shared!)

You’ll see why most roofing companies struggle with marketing… and how to flip it into your biggest growth engine.

If you want marketing that’s trackable, predictable, and gets results — this is for you.
