Rick McGuigan asked Larry Braun to join his company for ten years. Larry kept saying "you can't afford me." They finally settled it on a napkin.
In this episode, host Clinton James sits down with Rick McGuigan and Larry Braun of Pine Ridge Cleaning and Restoration in Cleveland, Ohio. Rick bought a small carpet cleaning business in 2003 and grew it to $3.5M largely on his own. Larry came out of 30 years in steel. Together they've taken Pine Ridge into mitigation, reconstruction, and contents.
You'll walk away with:
Why the visionary and integrator split works, and why two visionaries would have sunk them
Why Larry spent a year learning the business before changing any of it
How they built a contents division in eight weeks after avoiding it for years
Why they hired a department manager with no restoration experience at all
Why Pine Ridge doesn't use job titles, and what that does for the culture
How they handle disagreements without letting them fester
