    How a 21-Year-Old Garage Door Contractor Went from 40 to 140 Five-Star Reviews in 6 Months | Ep. 36

    Send us Fan MailGarret started the Garage Door Doctor at 18 years old in Mission Viejo, California, and in just two years he has built one of the most reputable garage door companies in his area. In this episode, Ryan sits down with Garret to break down exactly how he did it, from building his brand on Nextdoor from scratch to creating a referral and review system that took him from 40 to over 140 five-star Google reviews in six months.What makes Garret stand out in a market full of flaky contractors who don't answer their phones is pretty simple. He responds fast, he shows up, and he actually does what he says he's going to do. But he doesn't stop there. Garret created a branded thank-you bag he leaves with every customer after the job, complete with a branded cup, magnet, business cards, an air freshener, and a referral card that rewards both the referrer and the new customer with a discount. Nobody in his market is doing this, and it's paying off big.Ryan and Garret also dig into how personal brand building through Instagram helped Garrett attract customers and establish authority, why the Nextdoor app became the unexpected foundation of his business, and how the discipline he built in the gym carried over directly into how he runs his company. Garret also shares the mindset advice that guides him through the highs and lows of entrepreneurship: stay consistent, don't ride the emotional roller coaster, and the snowball will start to roll on its own once you just start.If you're a home service contractor trying to figure out how to get more referrals, stack Google reviews, and build a local brand that people actually remember, this episode is worth your full attention.Connect with Garret: Website: https://www.garagedoor-dr.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/garretthegaragedoctor/Connect with Ryan: https://www.instagram.com/ryankearneyofficial/Learn more about OutWorkem Digital: https://outworkemdigital.com/Apply to be on the Outworkem Podcast: https://outworkemdigital.com/podcast/
