  • Game changer

    Tommy and the show has been so helpful to me. I’ve learned so much in the last 8 to 10 months since I met Tommy and started listening to this podcast. I recommend this to anyone to everyone with a home service or like me a home improvement company. One day I’m gonna be a guest.

  • Weekly “can’t miss” podcast

    Tommy’s podcast has been a staple in my weekly routine ever since we met last winter in Marco Island. He’s locked in every week—bringing on sharp, like-minded guests and delivering valuable, easy-to-digest conversations. The only downside? It’s a firehose of inspiration and innovative ideas that’ll leave your brain spinning with ways to level up.

He Lost His Company as a Minority Partner. Then Built It Back From Zero.
Q: What historical moment made you realize you needed to change your approach to pricing and operations?
The realization came when the business nearly failed due to underpricing and supplier debt; selling enough roofs in a single month became the deciding factor that kept the company afloat and forced a rethink on pricing, overhead, and supplier payments.
Peter H Thomas (Century 21 Canada Founder) Losing $70 Million and Why He Never Panicked
Q: What were your three biggest mistakes?
He cites not listening to his wife as a foundational mistake and notes early negotiation missteps where he agreed too quickly, leaving value on the table; overall, the importance of a patient, team-based approach to deals.
The Sales Reframe That Changes How Every Technician Thinks About Their Job
Q: What is the core reframing of selling in a home service context?
Selling is about helping customers by completing the sentence beyond 'sales'—selling them on friendship, permanent solutions, and giving them real choices, not ultimatums.
