  • Key Questions

    (00:29) Can you tell us a little bit about how you got to where you are today, your entrepreneurial journey?

    (01:13) But I think one of the key things is, though, that You didn't stay down. You picked yourself back up again, right?

    (05:10) Did you start that company or did you join them?

    (06:52) So you had mentioned about the shingles not holding up to a hailstorm. How do the solar panels hold up?

    (07:43) So it wasn't like the part where the sun hits?

    (09:25) Your stone-coated steel, is that more like a tin roof type of idea? Does it have that look to it?

    (14:03) Do you guys install a battery bank then that the solar energy is put into?

    (14:22) So if let's say the power goes out on average, because I know a lot of variability there, right? Like my roof size, my house size, all But do you think it would be at least be able to run my main things, whether it's refrigerator or the furnace during a power outage?

    (17:19) So I guess what I'm wondering is, In Colorado, would you notice that difference in the wintertime with the battery bank staying full versus being in Florida or Texas, where they would get more light?

    (19:28) Some people might be wondering Oh, no. Do I have to have this whole big space to put all of these batteries if I do get the solar? How do you accommodate space with that?

    (20:19) I would like to focus on the growth that your business has seen. Can you share a bit of that with us?

    (22:33) Do you have any tips or things like that for how you scaled so quickly?

    (28:47) What other ways do you guys get your name out there?

    (29:17) Do you guys do anything with social media?

    (29:54) Which states are you in? Are you in all over the US or just certain ones?

    (30:46) So this past year, you doubled your business. What are some of your big goals that you have the next year or two?

    (32:06) Having those install teams in each state would be huge in and of itself, just with the logistics of traveling and organizing people that can travel. But how would your goals of further development, your team in those states, and then the more battery installs, how would that affect your business?

    (35:17) So what do you feel like is your number one roadblock from getting there?

    (37:30) What is the best advice that you've ever been given?

    (40:59) So on that note, what's the best advice you've ever given?

    (44:27) Do you offer mentorship or leadership training or anything like that to people outside of your solar workspace?
