In this episode, we dissect the *deceptive simplicity* of new construction and reveal how electricians miss thousands of dollars in missed service… just by seeing things the homeowner's way.

Most electricians are undercharging, overworking, and stuck wondering why they can’t scale.

In this episode, Clay and Joseph share the one pricing shift that unlocks time, profit, and freedom and why slowing down might be the most profitable move you make.

What You’ll Learn:

Why most contractors stay stuck at $500K/year (and how to break free)

The “gas station” strategy that makes pricing objections disappear

How service can actually buy back your time, not steal it

The real cost of underpricing (spoiler: it’s not just profit)

How to build loyalty so strong that clients beg to pay you more

📈 This episode is a must-listen for electricians, HVAC techs, and any service pro who wants to escape the grind and build wealth through service.

🎉 WIN OF THE WEEK:

Our client Charlie used to refuse offering options.

Now? He just closed a $35K job, $10K more than his competitor,

and the client was thrilled to pay it.

That’s the power of slowing down and pricing right!

We unpack what happens after electricians hit record-breaking sales months and why it often feels like you’re more trapped than before. You’ll hear real examples of 100K to 300K jumps… and the growing pains that follow.

You’ll discover:
- Why your biggest month might actually be a loss.
- The “bottleneck effect” of fulfillment.

- The one thing you *can’t come back from*: bad service

This one speaks to anyone who’s ever asked, “How do I keep up… and still grow?”

💥 Win of the Week
One of our clients just crossed $300K in a single month after months hovering around $100K but what followed revealed everything he still needed to fix. Another broke his company record at $275K, all in residential service!

You’ll discover:

🏆 Real wins from Ramon & Mike using the Loop Method.

Most electricians are chasing the wrong thing, high-dollar installs with low repeat value. But what if the real power play has been sitting in your truck bed this whole time?

In this powerful episode, we’re joined by Jesse Hurt, a sales leader at DuroMax Power. With a career that started from the bottom and now spans decades in the generator industry, Jesse brings hard-earned insight into why portable, dual fuel, and tri-fuel generators are a hidden goldmine for service electricians.

We share why the real money isn't in the install, it's in the relationship.

If you’ve been ignoring generators, this might be the most important episode you listen to this year.

Discover how one electrician turned a single service call into $52K of booked work using Service Loop’s 3D service method. This episode dives deep into advanced client experience, trust-based selling, and building lifetime relationships in residential electrical.

What if a $16K install wasn’t the ceiling... but the first step? Clay and Joe unpack the hidden framework behind one of the most stacked, trust-filled sales in residential electrical: a $52K multi-layered client relationship built from service, not sales.

You’ll learn how to:

• Stop being a commodity and become an experience
• Prevent tiny inspection fails from derailing trust
• Use “relational touchpoints” to turn CSRs and installers into sales allies
• Unlock a homeowner’s full potential with expert-level discovery

#ElectricianSales #ServiceTitanFail #CRMCrash #HomeServiceBusiness #ElectricianPodcast #SalesTraining #SixOptionStrategy #MillionDollarElectrician

What do you do when your CRM crashes and your client is still ready to buy?
 This is the painful truth most electricians aren’t ready for but need to hear.

In this episode of the Million Dollar Electrician Podcast, we break down a real-world sales failure caused by a CRM crash and the bigger failure it revealed.

A premium buyer. A confirmed appointment. A perfect offer. Still, the deal died. Why?  Because the tech failed and the technician didn’t have a system that could survive without it.

If you're an electrician or home service pro relying on software like ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, or Jobber, this episode will shake up how you view your sales process.

We reveal:

• What really happened when Service Titan failed mid-sale
• How to close $8K+ jobs without an iPad, price book, or CRM
• Why presenting six hand-built options makes the difference when tech fails
• How to build emotional value in minutes, not hours
• The key differences between techs who close and techs who stall

Real training. No fluff. And a serious call to be better than your tools.

⚡ BONUS:

$8K SAME-DAY CLOSE: How a tech built new options on the fly in his car and closed it.

TEAM EXPANSION: How a simple “We don’t do that” became a new service offering.

PREMIUM BUYER TURNED AWAY: Why making the customer do the extra work kills trust.

 00:00 – Intro: The sale that should have closed
 02:30 – What went wrong: A buyer with cash meets a failed system
 06:00 – Value equation breakdown: Time delay and customer effort
 08:45 – Real wins from real clients using our Loop Method
 12:30 – Six-options vs. CRM dependence
 18:00 – How to recover after you’ve already failed
 22:00 – Final coaching: What to do differently next time

What if your rock bottom became the foundation for something unstoppable?
In this episode of the Million Dollar Electrician Podcast, Billy Harper, Founder of Empowered Electric, lays bare the gritty truth behind his transformation from addiction to inspiring business owner, community leader, and faith-fueled servant.

Billy doesn’t preach. He proves. With six employees, three vans, and a rapidly growing business barely a year old, he’s not just running service calls, he is running a mission. From wiring homes to rewiring lives, Billy shares how he leveraged faith, recovery, community, and systems (like the Loop Method) to turn his darkest moments into daily breakthroughs.

You’ll hear how faith, real brotherhood, and a drive to serve changed Billy’s trajectory, and how his team’s ability to care more deeply about the people in the homes, not just the wiring, sets them apart.

If you're still stuck under your pricing fears, or hiding behind the "right timing," this might be the mindset shift you've needed.

Electricians think their customers are price shopping.

But what if the truth is... they’re actually ready to buy and you’re making it hard?

In this episode, Joe breaks down his real-world frustration trying to hire tree work, and how FOUR different contractors ghosted what could’ve been a $10K job.

We uncover the 3 biggest sins contractors are committing that kill sales, destroy trust, and leave cash on the table.

WIN OF THE WEEK:

John, a new client, was facing a competitive quote situation. The customer said, “We’re going to get more quotes.” But instead of folding, John calmly dropped a 24-month, 0% financing option and walked away with a $9,500 close.

Proof that when you serve their way, they pay your way.

Stop making your customers work to buy

Use emotional drivers, not logic

Close with structured service options

Ever feel like the weight of business, family, and your health is all pressing down at once? You’re not alone and it doesn’t have to be that way!

In this episode of The Million Dollar Electrician Podcast, Clay and Joseph unpack the five bottlenecks most electricians face that lead to stress, low sales, and a business that runs you instead of you running it.

We’ll show you how to coach yourself out of overwhelm, manage your emotions like a pro, and take practical steps to break through to your next level.

From wearing every hat to building ladders that go nowhere, Joe and Joseph dive deep into how to untangle the mess and rebuild with intention.
⚡ Whether you’re in year 1 or pushing 7-figures, this one hits home!

Here's what you'll learn:
•Electrician burnout & chaos addiction.
•Time management traps in the trades.
•Fixing your bottlenecks: Leads, sales, admin, team, YOU.
•Why emotional intelligence might be your unfair advantage.

Win of the Week:
Will gave a quote at $4,800 for a panel upgrade.
Others were $2,000 cheaper but Will didn’t drop a dime.
Instead, he used our value articulation process, leaned into his lifetime craftsmanship guarantee, and told the customer to go shop around.
They did. Nobody matched his service.
Result? Deal closed.
That’s how electricians win without playing the price game!

Are you still pushing for the close on the first visit? In this episode, we challenge one of the most common sales beliefs electricians hold and reveal why the Two-Call Close might be the highest-leverage shift you can make in your sales process.

Discover why the traditional same-day close often fails and how splitting your sales process into two focused calls can increase your conversion rates, build stronger customer connections, and lead to bigger jobs.

Here's what you'll learn:
• The psychology behind why same-day closes fails more often than you think and how to tap into better customer decision-making.
• The Two-Call Advantage: Learn exactly how splitting the call enhances clarity, builds trust, and ultimately leads to more electrical service sales.
• Objection Handling Mastery: Watch a roleplay demonstrating the best way to handle the common "Can't you just email it?" objection like a seasoned pro!

This one isn’t about sales tactics. It’s about building trust, buying time, and serving at the highest level.

Big Win of the Week:
Charlie closed a $35,000 job even though the competitor was $10K cheaper. Why?
Because he built trust over two calls and served at a higher level. That’s what the Loop Method is all about!

#ElectricianSales #MillionDollarElectrician #electricalbusiness  #SalesFramework #HomeServicePro #ServiceElectrician #ElectricianPodcast #TradeBusinessTips

In this episode, Nathan Miles shares how he leveraged the Loop Method to generate $75K in just 30 days! If you're looking for a proven strategy to scale your business, you won’t want to miss this!

After years working for others and putting in grueling 70-75 hour weeks to overcome financial challenges and after recognizing he had maxed out growth potential with his employer, Nathan finally took the leap to entrepreneurship. Nathan shared his extraordinary journey, generating $75,005 in his first month as an Electrician Entrepreneur after implementing a proven business system.
 

What makes Nathan's story particularly compelling isn't just the impressive sales figure, his approach to success? Putting customers’ safety above sales.

A simple two-outlet and doorbell call turned into a $10,000 panel replacement, after he discovered a hazardous panel covered in flammable lint. In that moment, he realized: "I didn't care about the money more than I cared about keeping them safe."

Instead of using fear to push a sale, Nathan educated the clients, gave them the options, and let them decide. The result? A win-win situation where trust led to business growth!

—---------------

Loop Method - a wiring technique used to create an efficient, streamlined system by connecting points in a continuous flow. Nathan applied a similar principle in his business strategy—building a seamless system of customer relationships, referrals, and service delivery. 

Instead of relying on cold calls or ads, he looped his network together by leveraging past interactions, social media engagement, and customer education, creating an organic lead-generation cycle.

We explore the critical importance of establishing control during service calls and how it can dramatically improve your sales process and customer relationships.

• Going to the electrical panel first is a non-negotiable step that establishes professional control
• This approach creates a pattern interrupt that shifts customer expectations and establishes you as the guide
• Standing firm on your process helps quickly identify difficult customers who won't follow your recommendations
• Safety provides a truthful and effective reason for insisting on seeing the panel first
• Customers who resist your process early are likely the same ones who would resist your recommendations later
• One technician generated $80,000 in sales over just two days by following this structured approach
• Process adherence across your entire team creates a consistent customer experience
• Saving time by disqualifying the wrong customers early protects your family time and emotional wellbeing
• Your process should be team-adopted, thoughtfully planned, and consistently executed
