At nineteen years old, Jason Munson was making $10 an hour plus commission repairing hot tubs, pellet stoves, gas fireplaces, and the like. Ten years later, he was at the top of the industry as a repair technician and owned his own company. You could say he was a successful entrepreneur, but it’s not where he wanted to be. Following the crash of 2008, all that he had left to support his family was a little eBay business selling motors and other parts. With desperation and dumb luck, Jason was able to find a way to differentiate himself and was able to do $100,000 in gross sales a night with a 30% margin.
