Blue collar grit meets boardroom-level execution in this powerful conversation on what it really takes to build a home services business that lasts. Chris and Chad sit down with Chris Crew, President of Blue Collar Success Group, to unpack his journey from dropping out of school and becoming an electrician at 16 to helping grow an electrical service company from $3 million to a $30 million run rate.

Chris shares the operational truths contractors cannot afford to ignore: pricing correctly, building a real sales system, protecting gross margin, training year-round, and resisting the temptation to chase shiny tools before mastering the basics. From weekly skill practice to implementing AI with purpose, this episode is a masterclass in disciplined growth for home service leaders who want profit, performance, and people moving in the same direction.

If you're ready to stop guessing, tighten your operations, and build a business that can grow without losing its soul, this one gets straight to the point.
