Almost $1M: How Dusty Hoerler from Craftsman Plumbing made steady changes to close in on $1m in sales this year with a strong profit!
Today’s show features Dusty Hoerler (Hoy-ler) of Craftsman Plumbing in Seattle, Washington. Dusty is a still relatively new SGI member, as he started incorporating SGI principles in late 2018 and definitely well into 2019. Since then, the man has been a machine! He’s looks at implementing change like cutting trees and stacking wood. He chops one tree, stacks the wood, and moves to the next tree. He’s done the same with his business, making one sizeable system or procedural change and then moving to another. It’s been hard work, but Dusty is already seeing tons of change. He began with revenues in the $700,000 range, and he’s pushing to hit $1,000,000 at a stronger profit margin.
