In this episode, Michael shares his journey of going from an outdoor kitchen company to now owning a plumbing, restoration, and roofing company.

He also speaks about the need to stand out from the crowd and have a unique brand identity in such a competitive market. Additionally, he discusses how to use an avatar to target customers, be honest with them through offering value, and understand their needs so as to close sales. Moreover, he encourages technicians to be mindful of their customer's needs and time so as not to have them repeat tasks or trips unnecessarily. Finally, he highlights the importance of having an understanding of numbers in order to grow a business and suggests that if we are not sure how to do this, we should reach out for help from a virtual CFO.
