S3 EP05 How Hayes Electrical turned a $24 Angi's Lead into $66K in 30 days06 Nov 202501:19:54

Most electricians write off cheap leads. Dorian Hayes turned one into $66,000.

In this episode, we break down exactly how Hayes Electrical used trust, process, and a six-option service strategy to transform a $24 Angi lead into a $66K whole-home upgrade all in under 30 days!

But it didn’t stop there. You’ll hear how Dorian:
- Trained his installers to upsell without selling
- Got 115 leads from his first Facebook ad
- Built a high-performing team from one organic Facebook post
- Replaced pressure with process, and burnout with mission

If you’ve ever said “lead aggregators suck,” or “my team won’t upsell,” this episode will shift everything! This is leadership in action.

This is what happens when process meets purpose!

This is the real kickoff. Just Joe and Clay stripped of pretense, reflecting on what it really takes to succeed in this trade, in this business… and in life.

This one is for the electrician who’s felt like maybe he’s not cut out for this.

We’re telling the truth, giving it all away, and holding nothing back.

💡What You’ll Learn:
- Why fear is not your enemy, it's your weapon
- How one electrician hit $105K in his 5th month in business
- The mental framework that separates winners from wanderers
- The power of full belief (even before the first win)

S2 EP 50 New homes need Electrical Service too! (And how to get that client!)07 Aug 202500:21:29

Ever walk into a brand-new home where nothing seems broken yet your gut tells you there's more beneath the surface?

In this episode, we dissect the *deceptive simplicity* of new construction and reveal how electricians miss thousands of dollars in missed service… just by seeing things the homeowner's way. Joe breaks down the mindset shift required to confidently build high-value option menus even when “everything looks new.”

⚡️What You’ll Learn:
- Why “it's just a GFI” is never just a GFI.
- How to ethically offer more without ever being pushy.
- What timing, perception, and peace of mind really mean to a homeowner who's just moved in.
- The invisible flaws of new construction that most electricians walk right past.
- Real examples of turning small service calls into $3,500 wins without ever selling.

This one is pure tactician gold but more than that, it’s a heart-check. Because when you serve with honor and understanding, your sales become service. And your customers never forget it! ⚡️

🏆 WIN OF THE WEEK:
Sam, a tech trained in the Loop Method, hit a new personal best with a $23,900 job then added a $3,200 generator prep the same day.

That’s $27,100 in one day without pressure or push.
Just clarity, timing, and the confidence to serve at the highest level.

S2 EP 48 The One Pricing Shift That Unlocks Time, Profit, and Freedom24 Jul 202500:30:02

Most electricians are undercharging, overworking, and stuck wondering why they can’t scale.

In this episode, Clay and Joseph share the one pricing shift that unlocks time, profit, and freedom and why slowing down might be the most profitable move you make.

 

What You’ll Learn:

Why most contractors stay stuck at $500K/year (and how to break free)

The “gas station” strategy that makes pricing objections disappear

How service can actually buy back your time, not steal it

The real cost of underpricing (spoiler: it’s not just profit)

How to build loyalty so strong that clients beg to pay you more

 

📈 This episode is a must-listen for electricians, HVAC techs, and any service pro who wants to escape the grind and build wealth through service.

 

🎉 WIN OF THE WEEK:

Our client Charlie used to refuse offering options.

Now? He just closed a $35K job, $10K more than his competitor,

and the client was thrilled to pay it.

That’s the power of slowing down and pricing right!
