How do you scale a home service business to 75+ franchise locations in under two years? In this episode of The TradeMarke, hosts Eric Thomas and Sarah Ghirardo sit down with Dan Claps, CEO of Voda Cleaning & Restoration, live from the 6th Annual Roofing Process Conference in Marco Island, Florida (hosted by LB Capital).

  • Marketing strategies for franchise growth, including the role of networking and partnerships.
  • How AI is disrupting home service marketing and SEO—and what business owners need to know to stay ahead.
  • The importance of building a repeatable, scalable business model in the trades.
  • How restoration businesses leverage insurance to drive profitability and create a sustainable revenue model.
  • We also discuss how AI, automation, and data-driven marketing are reshaping the trades, plus actionable insights on how to scale, systematize, and optimize a home service business.
