Most inspection business owners start out doing everything themselves, but what happens when you want to scale beyond a one-man show? If your systems rely too heavily on you, growth will always hit a ceiling. So how do you grow a business intentionally, one that can thrive even when you step away?
In this episode of the Inspector Empire Builder podcast, host Matt Williams sits down with Kurvin Gordon, owner of Ugly Duckling Home Inspections in Oregon. From working in construction in Texas to building a thriving multi-inspector firm in the Pacific Northwest, Kurvin shares the step-by-step strategies he used to plan, launch, and scale his business with the end in mind. This isn’t a story about overnight success, it’s about building a long-term, sellable asset from day one.
You’ll learn how Kurvin:
Pre-planned his business for 6+ months before launching
Created service packages that average nearly $1,000 per inspection
Uses systems and VAs to streamline operations
Builds strategic partnerships with mold remediation companies
Maintains business continuity with backups and smart planning
“We don’t work nine to five, we work start to finish.” - Kurvin Gordon
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to scale past technician mode, this episode will give you a real-world roadmap to build a business that works even when you don’t.
👉 If this episode sparked ideas, subscribe, share with a fellow inspector, or spend 10 minutes journaling what your next intentional growth step should be.
