I had the privilege of sitting down with Michael Venidis, Chief Experience Officer at Ryno Strategic Solutions, for a powerful conversation on the Service Crucible Podcast. This wasn’t your average discussion about digital marketing tactics. We dove deep into what truly drives home service business growth—especially for companies aiming to scale from $2M to $10M and beyond.
If you think marketing alone is the answer, think again. Sustainable growth in the trades comes from building customer trust, developing high-performing teams, and implementing operational systems that create predictable results and long-term momentum.

➡ Your Call Center Is Marketing: The customer journey starts the moment the phone rings. I break down how to train your CSRs to build trust—not just book calls.
➡ Create Marketing Through Service: Every great service call is a future lead generator. Happy customers refer more and amplify your brand organically.
➡ Culture Drives Compounding Growth: You’ve heard me say it before—hire for character. Then build the systems around those people. Don’t dump money into ads until your culture and team are dialed in.
➡ Personalized Leadership Works: Tools like the Color Code and Predictive Index help you lead more effectively. When you understand your team’s behavioral makeup, you can unlock better communication and performance.
If you’re committed to scaling your home service business sustainably, without draining your marketing budget or damaging your company culture, this episode is essential. We break down the real-world strategies, mindset shifts, and operational moves that separate companies that stall from those that successfully scale to $10M and beyond.
