To The Point - Home Services Podcast

The 5-Year Sprint from $5M-$65M with Zero Technical Skills


Listen Later

In this episode of To The Point Home Services, hosts Chris and Chad welcome Michael Brewner, co-owner of Iceberg Home Services, for a powerhouse conversation packed with wisdom on leadership, scaling, and staying grounded while building an HVAC and plumbing empire in Florida.

Mike shares his journey from professional poker player at 22 to HVAC sales, and ultimately to co-founding a thriving home services company that reached $47M in revenue last year — and is on track for $65M this year. He dives deep into the mindset shifts, team-building strategies, and personal growth required to scale without private equity, while maintaining a strong family and team culture.

 

Whether you're an aspiring business owner or seasoned entrepreneur, this candid conversation is full of golden insights, hard-earned lessons, and a few epic dad jokes.
