In this episode of Local Marketing Secrets, host Danny Leibrandt sits down with Al Levi, a renowned business strategist and author of the bestselling book, The Seven Power Contractor. Al, a third-generation contractor who transformed his family’s plumbing and HVAC business into a thriving enterprise, shares his proven strategies that have helped thousands of trades businesses systematize their operations for less stress, more profit, and sustainable growth.

Danny and Al delve deep into the Seven Power Framework—covering planning, operations, staffing, sales, sales coaching, marketing, and financial systems—and discuss how businesses of all sizes, from startups to multimillion-dollar firms, can implement these principles effectively. Al highlights common pitfalls contractors face, the importance of continuous learning, the power of effective delegation, and how systematization can dramatically increase your business's valuation and attractiveness to investors.

Whether you're running a pest control service, plumbing, roofing, or any other trade-based business, Al’s practical advice will help you transform chaos into calm, maximize profitability, and set the stage for lasting success.
