Nathan shared his extraordinary journey, generating $75,005 in his first month as an Electrician Entrepreneur after implementing a proven business system. What makes Nathan's story particularly compelling isn't just the impressive sales figure, his approach to success? Putting customers' safety above sales.A simple two-outlet and doorbell call turned into a $10,000 panel replacement, after he discovered a hazardous panel covered in flammable lint. In that moment, he realized: "I didn't care about the money more than I cared about keeping them safe."Instead of using fear to push a sale, Nathan educated the clients, gave them the options, and let them decide. The result? A win-win situation where trust led to business growth!—---------------Loop Method - a wiring technique used to create an efficient, streamlined system by connecting points in a continuous flow. Nathan applied a similar principle in his business strategy—building a seamless system of customer relationships, referrals, and service delivery. Instead of relying on cold calls or ads, he looped his network together by leveraging past interactions, social media engagement, and customer education, creating an organic lead-generation cycle.—---------------Join our community and get access to strategies that'll help bring your electrical business to the top

    Master electricians Clay Newmeyer and Joseph Lukini are revolutionizing how electrical contractors approach business with their podcast and coaching program Electricpreneur Secrets. Through their captivating personal stories of overcoming adversity, they reveal why electrical contractors struggle to grow despite technical expertise.Clay shares his journey from losing everything in a failed concrete business to building successful electrical operations, while Joseph's remarkable transformation from "the worst salesperson" struggling with undiagnosed autism to achieving $1.3 million in annual service from a single van demonstrates the power of their methodology. Their candid conversation reveals why the electrical trade has been underserved by traditional business coaching that caters primarily to HVAC and plumbing contractors.The duo tackles the epidemic of "self-objection" in electrical contracting—where technicians undervalue their services based on misconceptions rather than business sustainability. They offer practical strategies for communicating technical information in customer-friendly language, transforming technical jargon like "to code" into meaningful concepts like "modern safety standards" that homeowners can appreciate.Perhaps most valuable is their innovative approach to service calls, beginning at the electrical panel rather than rushing to the reported problem. This methodology creates opportunities for education while identifying potential issues beyond the initial complaint. By offering multiple options from basic repairs to premium solutions, electricians can respect customer choice while maximizing both satisfaction and business outcomes.What makes their approach particularly refreshing is their emphasis on truly serving customers rather than just making sales. As they powerfully argue, one of the most "salesy" things an electrician can do is fix just one problem when a home needs multiple electrical improvements—a perspective that flips traditional selling anxiety on its head.Ready to transform your electrical business?
