"Every year we bring in people who have actually done it, not just talked about it, and I think this year's lineup is the strongest we have put together. If you run a home-service business and you want to get better, this is the room you need to be in." Session topics include navigating acquisitions, coaching and leadership development, scaling into new markets, the mindset shift from technician to business owner, building high-performing teams, AI in digital marketing, financial planning, and capital investment.
