In this episode of the Home Service Studs podcast, Andrew Hathaway speaks with Matt Pourier, founder and owner of Oak Interiors Drywall and Painting in Rapid City, South Dakota. Matt shares how he built a $1 million trade business over three years through raw hard work, and how investing in coaches (like Andy Elliott, Ben Jordan, and Justin Georgiopoulos) helped him implement CRMs, SOPs, and hiring systems to scale toward $4.5 million in a single year. He breaks down stepping out of his own way by handing his primary phone number over to a project manager, transitioning to a high-accountability subcontractor model, using local Facebook video marketing, and leading his company and family with a servant-first, faith-driven mindset.

In this episode of the Home Service Studs podcast, Andrew Hathaway speaks with Shad Teerlink, founder of Evolve Pest Control, which he recently sold to Certus Pest, and now Owner/CEO of Evolve Ventures. Shad shares how he and his business partner bootstrapped a one-man route in Mesquite, Nevada into a multi-location company by knocking doors in Vegas, averaging 50% annual growth and doubling the company when they opened their Dallas branch in 2019 with more than 30 in-house sales reps who sold about 4,000 accounts in one summer. The conversation covers learning to replace yourself with systems, processes and management, running the business as CEO from home, the freedom and the pull back toward building after an exit, searching for the right acquisition, learning to be present with family, wild stories from the field including a gun pointed over a fence and a house overrun with bed bugs, and intentionally building company culture around a documented mission and core values.

He breaks down building enterprise value for potential private equity buyers, overcoming a disastrous production manager hire that jeopardized major projects, using AI to audit sales calls and financing pitches, and transforming a local construction laborer into a high-earning production manager.
