Mostly Middle Tennessee Business Podcast
Business:Entrepreneurship
A Middle Tennessee Business Podcast....subscribe/follow/rate/review at www.mmtbp.com
With one of my businesses (J2Lighting.com) being in the lighting manufacturing space, I reach out to a lot of electricians. Once upon a time, I was an electrical apprentice…I still am to a certain extent!
Over the last 4 decades, the talent pool for the trades has diminished. They were painted as a last option for kids in High School who just weren’t cut out for college…as if they would be relegated to a miserable life of using their hands and having a skill that could serve their families and provide a good living for many years.
Thanks to people like Mike Rowe, kids today are being exposed to the trades as a very viable and fulfilling route to a bountiful livelihood.
Michael and Lauren operate American Veteran Electrical Services, which focuses on helping Veterans and Civilians with their electrical services and requirements.
We discuss finding the right people to build an electrical business and the challenges that exist in Tennessee for a trade business.
They’re even starting an online course of sorts that will help people do their own surface level electrical work with Empowered Academy.
Highlights:
Electrical trade and licensing. (4:22)
Starting a business and marketing strategies. (12:16)
Business growth and talent acquisition in the electrical trade. (19:10)
Local SEO and personal branding for electricians. (24:28)
Franchising and running a successful electrical business. (32:16)
