Someone I have a deep respect for recently told me: "When things start to feel boring, that's your signal to double-down. It means you've started to figure it out." I needed to hear it. Maybe you do too.

4 years ago, today: my partner and I took over a small plumbing shop. Just us + 3 plumbers. $1m ann. revenue. Today, we're at 90 team members and recently crossed $20m revenue run rate (and finally got our margins dialed). Wild ride. 🇺🇲

Local service co M&A hack: Subbing work to sellers we're in talks to purchase. Allows us to see them work, shoot the shit on the job site, pay them quickly, and put our tight ship on display. Working beautifully with one local seller at the moment.
