Manage episode 502497766 series 3594287
Aaron Shishilla sits down with Nathan Lippincott, founder of Knockout Inspections and a Certified Master Inspector, to unpack how he scaled his company from the ground up.
Nathan shares his journey from growing up in a construction family to launching Knockout Inspections in 2013, building a reputation as a trusted authority along the Gulf Coast. He reveals how Fortified inspections became 60% of his business, why patience and consistency are the real keys to scaling, and how he’s aiming to take Knockout from $3M to $10M.
You’ll hear insights on:
- How Fortified certification works and why it’s transforming the inspection industry.
- Mistakes Nathan made in marketing (and what he’d do differently).
- Why branding sometimes matters more than immediate ROI.
- The importance of building long-term relationships with agents and builders.
- Why enjoying the journey is just as important as hitting the next revenue milestone.
Nathan also shares his unique take on competition: “I’ll train my competitors—because it only makes me better.”
