In this episode of the Window Cleaning Millionaire Podcast, Ryan pulls back the curtain on the real math behind growing a profitable service business.

With Christmas light season in full swing and sales already topping $405K by mid-October, Ryan breaks down how he and his team hit record numbers this year — not by guessing, but by reverse engineering their goals with precision.

You’ll learn how to turn “I want to make more money” into a measurable, repeatable, and trackable growth plan using a simple framework that works for any service business — window cleaning, pressure washing, Christmas lights, and beyond.

If you’ve been stuck at the same monthly revenue for too long, this episode will show you how to finally get clarity, consistency, and control over your growth.

In this powerful and personal episode, Ryan shares a message inspired by a recent LDS General Conference talk titled “The Lord Looketh on the Heart.”

Through the story of David’s anointing and his own experiences building multiple seven-figure businesses, Ryan explores how real success isn’t found in appearances, money, or hype but in the heart behind what you do.

He unpacks the difference between motivation and conviction, the importance of a “why” that’s bigger than money, and how to build a business rooted in purpose, family, and faith.

If you’ve ever felt tired, unmotivated, or questioned why you’re doing all this this episode will help you realign your heart and find the fuel that lasts.

In this episode, Ryan breaks down one of the hardest and most frustrating stages in business growth the $250K ceiling. You’ve built some momentum, you’re hustling nonstop, and revenue looks decent on paper… but you’re still stuck doing everything yourself.

Ryan explains why this stage feels like running in place, what mistakes keep most service business owners trapped there for years, and the exact steps to finally break through and scale past half a million toward freedom.

If you’ve ever felt maxed out, burned out, or like your business owns you this one’s going to hit home.

In this episode, Ryan pulls back the curtain on his very first Window Cleaning Millionaire Live Event, what went right, what went wrong, and the powerful lessons that came from saying “yes” before he felt ready.

After only six weeks of planning (and a lot of late nights building slides), Ryan hosted a small but mighty live event that became one of the biggest wins of his business career. He shares how leaning into discomfort, surrounding yourself with bigger thinkers, and taking imperfect action can create breakthroughs you never saw coming.

Whether you’re just starting your service business or scaling past seven figures, this episode is your permission slip to stop waiting for “ready” and start moving anyway.

Ryan breaks down one of the most important (and most overlooked) factors in scaling a service business: seasonality. Sharing hard-won lessons from years of running Reach Window Cleaning, he explains how to prepare for busy season with the right crews, trucks, and marketing strategy and why most owners actually spend marketing dollars at the wrong time.

From building your revenue curve to pre-selling jobs and using demand as leverage, this episode gives you a practical playbook to maximize profit when work is hot and survive the slow months without stress.

Fresh off a late game and a long day, Ryan gets real about two things: the tragedy dominating the news and a hard business lesson from his own shop. After briefly condemning the online celebration of violence, he pivots to an in-the-trenches breakdown of a marketing misstep—how a wildly successful “front-end offer” brought in hundreds of customers but started burning out his techs. The fix? Owning the mistake, listening to the team, and simplifying the offer so it serves customers and employees. If you’re growing a service business, this is a masterclass in humility, lifetime value thinking, and leading people first.

Sometimes the smartest move in business (and life) looks “dumb” to everyone else.

In this episode, Ryan shares why he and his family sold their house, started renting in a luxury neighborhood, and how that one decision exploded both his income and his mindset.

From saving hours of wasted drive time to being surrounded by high-level business owners, Ryan explains how proximity to bigger thinkers forces you to play at a higher level and why entrepreneurs must stop making decisions based on cultural stigma and start making them based on what moves the needle.
