Episode 27 - The Air Conditioning Podcast | Al Levi | The 7 Power Contractor

Hey guys!  Welcome to Episode 27 of The Air Conditioning Podcast and wasn’t it a beauty!  This week we were up bright and early to Welcome Author of The 7-Power Contractor, business and life coach and all round nice guy, Mr Al Levi.  If you haven’t already heard of Al Levi, you need to. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, Al started out working in a family HVAC & Plumbing business before eventually selling his shares of the company to his brothers and heading out in to the big wide world on his own.

Fast forwarding to current day, Al Levi has gone on to become one of the most successful mentors to some of the biggest names in the Home Service industry, including Tommy Mello.  We had a blast speaking with Al and tried to cram as much of his Gold Nuggets into the episode as time would allow!  But don’t despair, we didn’t get to cover anywhere near as much as we’d hoped to, so Al has kindly offered to join us on the Show again in the future for Round 2.  (Ring-a-Ding-Ding!)

We hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did bringing it to you and be sure to grab a copy of his incredible book The 7-Power Contractor, available on Amazon, Audible and where ever else you get your hands on it!

Here’s a snippet to whet your appetite…..

> Al, can you take us back to where it all began and share with our audience how you got started? (3:00)

> Running a company as you did with some 70 odd employees, how difficult was it to introduce systems? Were you met with much resistance from your staff? (7:00)

> For someone just learning about systems and starting out, it can be very overwhelming.  What would your advice be around exactly where and how to get started? (14:00)

> In your book you cover the 7 power points for a successful business, can you expand on those briefly to give our audience a taste of what you cover? (19:00)

> You refer to marketing and advertising as being two different things, can you elaborate? (27:00)

> When it comes to hiring good staff and then retaining them, can you tell us how you went about doing that? (31:00)

> When it comes to handing over the operation manual to a specific staff member for a specific task, do you just hand it to them and they go through it at their own pace or do you coach them through it? (35:00)

And guys that was just the tip of the ice berg!

You must get yourselves a copy of The 7-Power Contractor, even if you’re not keen on reading, its sharp and to the point.  More gold than Kalgoorlie and what’s more is available on Audible so you can listen on your way to and from work, between jobs and mowing the lawn!

We’d like to sincerely thank Al for joining us as our guest on the show and are already looking forward to speaking with him again.
