Elevating Safety, Anchoring Legacy with Premier Building Anchors

What happens when tradesmen turn frustration into innovation? Out of past conversations on this very podcast, a new partnership emerged—one that’s raising the bar for safety and growth across Philadelphia’s skyline.

In this episode of Constructing Greatness, Nick reconnects with Anthony and John Zurzolo and John McCarroll, whose earlier appearances remain among the show’s most downloaded. Since then, their journeys from window cleaning and construction management to entrepreneurship have led to the launch of Premier Building Anchors, a company already making a mark just 18 months in.

They share how hard work, family values, and relentless drive turned a simple idea into a thriving enterprise that now supports dozens of employees and their families. More than anchors and inspections, their story is about responsibility, legacy, and proving that the trades can create wealth, opportunity, and community impact.

Episode Takeaways:

• How a podcast conversation evolved into a business partnership and new company.
• Why entrepreneurship often feels like an addiction—and how to channel it into growth.
• The customer-first practices that helped scale Premier from a trade into a trusted brand.
• How creating jobs and supporting families fuels long-term motivation.
• Why safety failures aren’t an option in high-risk industries.
• How balancing growth with employee overtime builds loyalty.
• Why some building owners undervalue safety—and how to hold the line ethically.
• What legacy means for first-generation entrepreneurs and their kids.
• How the trades provide real alternatives to the college track.
• Why fast responsiveness can win more business than pricing battles.
• How recurring inspections create predictable revenue and stability.
• Where Premier Building Anchors aims to be in five years—and why they see national potential.

What happens when innovators decide that “normal” isn’t good enough anymore? A simple conversation can turn into a movement that changes minds and communities.

In this powerful return of Constructing Greatness, we dive into the launch of Woolwich Wellness Company and its flagship dispensary, Frosted Nug, located in Carneys Point, New Jersey. After a nine-month break from podcasting, Nich reconnects with three former guests to share how a casual conversation evolved into a groundbreaking wellness venture.

These four entrepreneurs—each driven by a shared passion for purpose and innovation—open up about their mission to shift mindsets and break free from conventional wellness models. Together, they’re building more than a cannabis business: they’re shaping a community-centered destination where content, connection, and well-being go hand in hand. With authenticity and vision, they reflect on how collaboration, media, and grit are transforming an idea into impact.

Why delays in cannabis licensing can become a blessing in disguise for smarter decision-making.

How premium dispensaries can become community hubs that go beyond selling cannabis.

Why modular, evergreen content is more powerful than chasing viral moments.

How combining cannabis with other wellness products like mushroom coffee or THC cold brew opens new markets.

How legal challenges can result in groundbreaking business models that set industry precedent.

How to position your brand so vendors compete to be part of your product lineup.

How in-house media production acts as a business turbocharger for marketing and storytelling.

Why the future of dispensaries lies in creating meaningful human connections (not just transactional sales).
