When Hustle Stops Working in Your Roofing Business (And What to Do Next)

Roofing Success

About this episode

Scott Huffman built GSAS Construction Group to nearly $4M in his first full year of roofing, then hit a wall. Hustle got him there, but it couldn't get him further.

Scott shares what broke through the ceiling, from hiring a consultant to turning a 12-page notes doc into real SOPs, plus how his journey from prison to business owner built a company where second chances create top performers.

What you'll learn:
- The weekly sales metrics that finally got reps to buy in (150 doors, 120 cold calls)
- How to spot when you've hit your ceiling as an owner and what to do next
- Hard hiring lessons: friends and family, trust but verify, and right people in right seats
