Record Revenue & Profits: Extreme Ownership Spurs Joe Martel & Advanced Air Conditioning and Heating in Cedar Park, TX
Manage episode 393656633 series 2934440
A year ago, Joe Martel found himself in a rut. His company, Advanced Air Conditioning and Heating in Cedar Park, TX, was doing well, but Joe knew it could be doing better. Personally, he was feeling unfulfilled, as well. He called his CertainPath coach to leave the organization. That one, simple conversation changed the trajectory of the business and rekindled Joe’s personal ambition.
During this interview, Joe will share the details of that conversation. And he will explain the incredible changes he made to Advanced Air Conditioning and Heating over the next eight months. It spurred tremendous growth. Sales jumped from $1.6MM to (at the time of this interview) a projected $2.4MM+, and profits jumped from 8% to 13%.
Over the course of this interview, Joe talks about…
· How a rebrand, including truck wraps, has stimulated calls.
· What his new mindset is when approaching the business.
· How his focus on gross margin has helped stimulate his top and bottom line growth
· Why training is so important to his company.
· How often he meets with his CertainPath coach and why.
· How he’s attracting top talent from outside the industry.
· And so much more!
