From Break Fix to Six Figures: Scaling Your Business for Large Projects (50)

from Unlocked Podcast · host Chad Lingafelt, Tony Hokanson, Lars Johnston

Are you ready to stop rolling trucks for $250 tickets and start landing $100,000+ projects? In this episode, recorded live from a conference in Windsor, Connecticut, Lars from Calgary Lock & Safe, Tony from Assured Security, and Chad from Loc-Doc Security dive into the intentional shift required to morph a small service company into a large-scale project business. They reveal the hidden complexities of managing six-figure projects, drawing from their own experiences with jobs involving thousands of door openings. The hosts share the brutal truth about why simply multiplying your time estimate by the number of doors will lead to bankruptcy, highlighting neglected factors like cash flow management, stakeholder meetings, and the massive time drain of re-walking sites. Learn why success at this level requires an on-site manager with a different skillset—someone who is great at managing people and tasks, not just keying locks.
