Grant and Erin Stahler are the inspiring husband-and-wife co-founders of Stahler Services, a premium restroom and shower trailer rental company. Starting with a single trailer after college, they have disrupted a traditional industry by providing hospitality-level service and a product often described as a "hotel bathroom on wheels." Guided by their values and a passion for entrepreneurship, they've grown their family-run business across multiple states. The Stahlers are also the creators of Stahler Leads, an innovative online marketplace designed to help other vendors in the sanitation space grow their businesses by connecting them with qualified customers.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode, host Jonathan Goldhill chats with Grant and Erin Stahler about their incredible journey of transforming the portable sanitation industry. Grant shares the origin story of starting the business right out of college and how he and Erin joined forces to scale it with a commitment to quality and service. We explore how they innovated a commodity product into a premium experience, the systems they've used to scale effectively, and the genesis of their second company, Stahler Leads. Grant and Erin also offer an open and honest look at the dynamics of running a business as a married couple and how their faith serves as the foundational core for their leadership, culture, and life balance.KEY TAKEAWAYSInnovating a Commodity: The Stahlers elevated the standard porta-potty into a premium experience with amenities like flushing toilets, running hot water, A/C, heating, and Bluetooth sound systems, effectively creating a new market category.Values-Driven Leadership: Their faith is the "core of everything." They strive to run their business "like Jesus would," which informs everything from their company culture and customer service to maintaining perspective and life balance.The Dynamics of a Couple in Business: Erin shares that success as a married couple in business requires acknowledging the ups and downs, communicating openly, and finding a flexible balance that works for them, rather than enforcing rigid rules.From Internal Problem to New Venture: After spending over a million dollars on Google Ads and finding most leads were outside their service area, they created Stahler Leads—a marketplace to sell those leads to other vendors, turning a marketing challenge into a new revenue stream.Building to Sell, But Inspired to Hold: While they use the "build to sell" framework to ensure the business is systemized and valuable, their true inspiration comes from legacy companies like Chick-fil-A, focusing on long-term growth and value creation over decades.Scaling with Intention: The Stahlers have intentionally scaled using systems like the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), software like HubSpot and Smartsheets, and a commitment to embedding their core values across all locations to maintain quality and culture.QUOTES"We really want to be that rising tide that lifts all ships within our industry.""We want to do this business like Jesus would. So we want to own it like Jesus would and just manage like Jesus would.""Anything that you do, there's going to be some low moments and some hard things that you're gonna have to talk through, whether that's like purely a coworker or a coworker who happens to be your spouse.""If we're gonna have a business, we wanna do it right and we wanna keep building it.""Such a basic thing. But also it, it's so different than the standard plastic porta-potty."Connect and learn more about Grant & Erin Stahler:Grant Stahler's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grant-stahla/ Erin Stahler's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinstahla/If you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.

#587 What does it take to grow a multi-million dollar service business from the ground up? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Serge Rochon, founder of Complete Windows & Doors, to unpack how he built a thriving home renovation company over the past 13 years — starting solo and scaling to a 25+ person team. Serge shares the lessons learned from cold-calling and canvassing his way to early customers, how mentorship shaped his start, why he avoided new construction jobs, and the importance of building systems and hiring ahead of the curve. Whether you're just getting started or preparing to scale, this conversation is full of practical wisdom for creating a profitable, sellable service business that doesn't depend solely on you! What we discuss with Serge: + Started business after 12+ years in industry + Chose renovations over new builds + Landed early clients through cold outreach + Leveraged past customer base to launch + Focused on expert installation and service + Scaled from solo to 25+ person team + Built systems to reduce owner dependency + Offers “good, better, best” product tiers + Uses CRM and quoting tools to stay lean + Emphasizes hiring ahead of demand Thank you, Serge!

Touch the same piece of information more than twice – fix the workflow. That's the kind of CFO-meets-COO thinking we get into in this episode of The Handbook, where Harv sits down with Lindsey Head to connect the dots between finance, ops, tech, and people – and what really changes when you standardise how the business runs. Lindsey helped scale a PR agency from 5 to 125 people and $750k to $25m in revenue, leading finance, ops, HR, tech, legal and M&A along the way – so she's seen where the cracks form, and how to close them.Here's what we dive into:• The case for “non-billable” hires early – why dedicated new-business and ops roles pay for themselves, and a simple admin-as-%-of-revenue rule of thumb (aim for ~7–8%).• Systems thinking > shiny tools – map the ideal information flow first, then pick tech to automate it. If you're touching the same data repeatedly, the process is broken.• Change management that actually works – phase rollouts, involve users early, test, train, and measure adoption before you “go live.”• Multi-entity without the migraines – standardise what you can across entities, respect local nuance (currency, tax, PTO), and use partners/EORs when expanding fast.• Run the business by the numbers – utilisation, gross margin by client, and labour % tell the truth; AI can accelerate FP&A and reporting, but you still sanity-check the outputs.If you're feeling buried under tools, processes, and hiring questions, Lindsey's final nudge is simple: pause, map “how it's going” vs “how it should go,” and focus this quarter on the single change that unlocks the most leverage.Additional Resources:

Joseph Lambert was just 17 when a single four-hour junk removal job netted him $1,600 in cash. While his friends were focused on college applications, Joseph saw a different path—a simpler, more scalable business model that others overlooked. That one job was the spark that ignited a multi-million dollar enterprise, growing into a $1 million-a-month operation before he was old enough to legally drink.In this episode, Joseph sits down with Ryan Atkinson to pull back the curtain on his rapid success. He reveals the exact marketing strategies and sales tactics he used to get his first customers and generate thousands of five-star reviews. You'll learn his non-negotiable hiring rules for building a trustworthy team, the secrets to creating an unforgettable customer experience that fuels repeat business, and the critical financial lesson he learned about the difference between revenue for vanity and profit for sanity.If you're looking to start a home service business or scale your current operation, this interview is a masterclass in smart business growth. Joseph provides a practical blueprint on P&L management, leadership, and turning a simple, "unsexy" idea into a highly profitable empire. Tune in to discover the actionable advice you need to build your own successful business from the ground up!Takeaways:- The most important part of any service job is creating an exceptional customer experience that turns one client into five referrals through word-of-mouth.- Make getting customer reviews a non-negotiable process by incentivizing your team with bonuses and monthly competitions; this is crucial for building social proof and trust.- When starting out, build your marketing funnel from the bottom up, focusing first on high-intent channels like Google Ads before scaling to broader branding efforts.- Your hiring standard should be simple: never hire someone you wouldn't feel comfortable sending to your mother's house. It's better to be understaffed than to compromise on quality.- Prioritize profitability over revenue. "Top line is for vanity, bottom line is for sanity." Master your P&L management to ensure smart, sustainable growth.- Track the KPIs you can control on a daily basis, such as labor and fuel costs. Give your team access to simplified financial reports to get their buy-in on hitting profit targets.- For early business growth, leverage free marketing tactics relentlessly. Use your personal network, knock on doors, and be creative to acquire your first customers without a large budget.- Find a mentor who is at least 20 years older than you. Their wisdom and experience are invaluable for avoiding common entrepreneurial mistakes.- In the first few years of your business, pay yourself as little as possible and reinvest heavily—as much as 20-30% of revenue—back into marketing to accelerate growth.- True fulfillment in entrepreneurship comes from a "bigger why" than just money, such as investing in your team and caring for customers. The dollars will follow if you do those things well.Tags: Business Growth, Service & Consulting, Business Scaling, Hiring, Google Ads Resources:Start Your Business Today: https://links.upflip.com/45JBr1e Connect with Joseph: https://www.linkedin.com/in/josephcohenlambert/

Ops Quickies – snackable episodes on tech, tools, and systems.

In this thought-provoking episode, Ryan tackles one of the most overlooked transitions in the home service world: moving from the field to the office. After receiving a powerful listener question—"What should I do now that I'm finally working on my business instead of in it?"—Ryan unpacks the journey that many business owners face but few talk about.Drawing from his own path, including his infamous 10-hour first install and his management background, Ryan walks through what it takes to zoom out and lead your business strategically. He dives into setting a vision, building systems, investing in branding, and creating culture that extends beyond your company walls. You'll hear why leadership development is non-negotiable if you want to scale and what “CEO Day” looks like when done right.This episode doesn't shy away from hard truths—like how ego keeps you feeling “needed” but stuck, or how taking out the trash may be costing your business more than you realize. Ryan introduces the “bucket value” analogy to help business owners prioritize their time and delegate low-value tasks. He also shares real-life advice from HVAC legend Matthew Holtkamp, including how to ask, “Can someone else do this?” before taking action.Ryan breaks down why working ON the business means installing systems, not just garage doors, and how to avoid falling back into old habits by setting triggers and KPIs that expose where you're slipping. He also covers the guilt many business owners feel when stepping back—and why it's time to stop apologizing for being a leader.The episode ends with a clear call to invest in your personal and business growth through coaching, masterminds, CRMs, automations, and smarter communication tools. Ryan even teases a new all-in-one messaging platform that could reshape how contractors manage customer interaction across channels.If you're ready to stop wearing every hat and start leading with clarity, this is the episode that'll nudge you forward. Whether you're doing $200K or $20M, the challenges are the same—and the answers start here.Fort Lauderdale Intensive – 2 Seats Left!

A lot of contractors are great at their trade but end up stuck when it comes to pricing their work in a way that reflects its real value. The old way of quoting jobs—flat fees or guessing what the customer will accept—just doesn't cut it anymore. Too often, it means walking away from jobs with less money than you should've earned, even when you did everything right. A smarter pricing system doesn't just help with the numbers—it changes how customers see the value of what you're offering. And when that clicks, the whole business starts to feel less like a hustle and more like it's finally working for you. Danielle Putnam is the president of The New Flat Rate, a company revolutionizing pricing for home service contractors through menu-based systems. Coming from a multigenerational background in HVAC and plumbing, Danielle knows the industry inside and out. Today, she emphasizes how offering tiered pricing options empowers technicians to close higher-value jobs, improve customer satisfaction, and boost earnings—without feeling like salespeople. She also addresses common pushbacks to adopting new pricing models and how a strategic pricing reset can drive long-term business growth and technician confidence. Stay tuned!
