Live from Build It to Sell It in Marco Island (formerly the Roofing Process Conference), Sarah Ghirardo and Eric Thomas unpack what it really takes to scale a home service business you can eventually exit. They dig into the true bottleneck to growth (spoiler: the owner), why buying more software rarely fixes anything, and how agencies and marketers are reacting to the “shift” happening in search as AI changes how customers discover contractors.
From AEO and AI search visibility to the fundamentals that still win (brand, community presence, content that actually answers questions), this episode is a rapid-fire reminder that marketing can’t revolve around Google alone. The conversation wraps with a practical list of community-driven marketing ideas contractors can implement immediately, plus a challenge to rethink lead aggregators, referrals, and the long-term game of building a business worth buying.
If you’re trying to grow, simplify, and build something that doesn’t depend on you for every decision, this one’s for you.
