Deep dives
Launching a Plumbing Business
The journey of starting a plumbing business often begins with the realization that technical skills do not automatically translate into business acumen. The speaker shares experiences from their initial months, noting that, after getting a business license, they struggled to secure jobs, completing only five or six in the first two months. A turning point occurred following a significant weather event, which drastically increased demand and prompted them to scale operations efficiently. This highlights the importance of adaptability and timing in successfully launching a business, particularly in response to external factors.
