Shed Industry Consulting - PART 1

Send us Fan MailThe shed industry doesn’t usually change overnight, but right now it’s shifting in ways you can feel on the lot and in your ad dashboard. We recorded from a coffee shop on a “make it work” kind of day, and pulled together a panel to introduce Shed Geek Consultation: a practical way to get experienced eyes on your decisions before they get expensive.Tyler Mayhan shares what it takes to scale a shed company when the hustle that got you started stops being enough. We talk about moving from gut-feel leadership into clear mission, stronger org structure, defined roles, and systems that support growth. If you’re stuck between small business chaos and the next level, this hits that exact tension.Richard Mashburn brings a data-first, no-sugarcoating view from years across sales, marketing, finance, and now operating as a shed dealer with multiple locations. We get into the real market story behind “sales are down,” why consolidation is accelerating, and how bigger players are gaining share through more aggressive marketing, better tech, and tighter execution. We also unpack warning signs like too-good-to-be-true consignment offers, how customers react to add-on fees, and why knowing your margins matters more when shoppers get payment-sensitive.Christopher Sedlak rounds it out with shed marketing strategy you can measure: SEO, PPC, cost per lead, and why the plan has to follow the goal, not the other way around. This is Part 1 of a two-part series, and it’s built for dealers and manufacturers who want to compete smarter, not just spend more.Subscribe, share this with a shed owner who needs it, and leave a review so more builders and dealers can find the show.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?  Sign up on our website: shedgeek.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube at the handle @shedgeekpodcast.To be a guest on the Shed Geek Podcast visit our website and fill out the "Contact Us" form.To suggest show topics or ask questions you want answered email us at [email protected] episodes Sponsors:Studio Sponsor: Shed ProIdentigrowSolar BlasterCardinal ManufacturingDigital Shed Builder
