18. How To Start A Multi-Million Dollar Electrical Business
About this episode
As long as people need power, an electrician business will never go out of style. Joel Walsman started Jefferson Electric in 2009 and has since grown it to $500K/Month. Today, he’ll share his advice on how to start an electrical business.
Joel started Jefferson Electric out of necessity, in the midst of the 2008 recession. He didn’t just want a job for himself. His vision was to create meaningful employment for other electricians, starting an electrical company based on values like integrity and passion. That model has proven a successful one, and today Jefferson Electric has grown to 50 team members and their revenue is increasing steadily year over year.
Joel sees skillful leadership as the key to this growth, and in today’s interview, he shares his strategies for business leaders. We’ll also hear about the practical side of starting an electrician business, like how he connects with customers, how he finds and hires employees, and what systems and software he uses to keep his business running smoothly.
