The Real Estate market is chock full of amazing personal stories. But it's not every day you meet someone whose father helped launch an entire segment of the industry! Specifically the Home Inspection Industry! But that's exactly who Kathleen Kuhn is, and what a conversation this was, talking all about the life and experiences of someone who began in the corporate sphere, only to leave it and eventually become an Executive for HouseMaster Home Inspections.
And before we get into that, we open once more with Wise Words with Wally!
Since we talk all about leadership development, what's the biggest lesson YOU have learned over the years? Sound off in the comments, and don't forget to like/subscribe!

Inspector Empire Builder is a phenomenal organization that does a LOT of good for the Home Inspection community. The number one goal of any leader should be to train up your replacement, and while the business coaching they offer is irreplaceable... they embody the spirit of "Leaders Making Leaders". And their process of personal development is wholistic focusing on bettering the whole person, not just helping you boost your bottom line. So it's with great pleasure and deep gratitude that I welcome Mark Hummel and Wally Conway to The Ride Along. Grab a notepad and pen... you're gonna need it :) If you've been to IEB or a similar coaching network, what's the biggest thing you learned from them?

This is the kind of panelist-style conversation you'd pay to hear at a conference... and you get to hear it for free!

How did they do it? Through ingenuity, persistence, wise decision making, and patience. They're some of the realest, most genuine people I've had the pleasure to meet, and you'd be sorely amiss not to listen as they share their secrets for success.

The best part about conferences is getting to meet people like Randy and Shante Lambert... the power couple behind Lambert Home Inspections in Northern Virginia. After years of working for someone else, Randy decided he'd had enough and struck out on his own. Since then, he and his wife have managed to scale their business to the point that they don't even invest in paid marketing anymore. So if you're looking for inspiration in growing your inspection business and taking over a market... look no further. And if you're looking for a job... he's hiring.

Nashville area Home Inspector Jeff Frankenstein started his inspection journey three years ago. But he's also been rocking stages globally behind the keyboard for the Newsboys for 30 years. So, how does one manage to run a local business successfully while traveling the world? And how does one even make the industry leap from professional music to Home Inspections? Well, COVID shutting down the music industry opened the door for the latter... and for the former, you'll have to listen and find out.

Nick Gromicko. If you've been involved in the Home Inspection industry for even a week, you've heard his name. After building a massive conglomerate serving Home Inspectors across the country and around the world... Gromicko finally took a vacation in sunny FL. He also graciously gave us the chance for an interview, where he talks about he started; the highs and lows of entrepreneurship; his greatest battles; where he's looking to go next; and even spills a bit of the proverbial tea about that notorious rivalry with another well-known industry entity.
Be sure to catch Nick Gromicko, and The Wrap Around, at InterNACHI's Pro Inspectors Convention this week in Atlantic City, NJ!

What do Airline Stewards and Home Inspectors have in common? They have Bailey McHugh, who's been both! So many home inspectors come to the industry from very different or unrelated backgrounds, but people like Bailey prove that's not a disqualifier as she's rapidly risen to one of the best respected and well-known inspectors in the Charlotte, NC area.

The best part of this podcast is the people who come on the show. Lisa Alajajian Giroux more than qualifies as one of those. I got to sit down with her at the beginning of her Presidency at ASHI and listen to her story and her vision for the future of ASHI... including bringing in younger members and training the next generation of leaders for the inspection community. Oh... and being as she's from Boston... I had to get her take on that one time these guys named Tom and Gronk left town.
