How the Top 1% of Contractors Think: Lessons from 25 Years in the Industry
In this episode of the Builders of Authority podcast, I got to sit down with someone I’ve looked forward to connecting with for a while, Bob Houchin. If you're in or around the home services space, there’s a good chance you’ve heard his name before.
Bob’s the host of The Successful Contractor podcast and has been in the industry for over two decades. He’s interviewed more top-performing contractors and private equity power players than probably anyone out there. We’re talking about people who are running $100M+ businesses and helping shape the future of the trades.
We had a real conversation about what those elite-level contractors are doing that most others aren’t. Bob shares insights from behind the scenes, things he's learned from hundreds of interviews and years of seeing what actually works. We also got into how digital marketing and personal branding are impacting the trades, and why there’s such a big opportunity for agency owners and marketers to serve this niche.
If you’re trying to figure out how to break into the home services space, or if you’re already working with contractors and want to understand how the top 1% think, this episode is a must-listen.
