Summary
This episode was sponsored by Cardiff & Top Tier Solar Solutions DM me "Top Tier" on IG at https://www.instagram.com/therealbradlea to get in on this gold rush LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ Today's Dropping Bombs episode features Sam Van Wynen — the 28-year-old founder who built a nine-figure residential solar and battery company from the ground up, with no outside funding, and landed #4 on the Inc. 5000 with over 41,000% revenue growth in three years. Sam breaks down the brutal $11 million loss that almost killed his company before it took off, the pivot he made within weeks of Trump eliminating the solar tax credit, and why the battery market is the biggest gold rush in home services right now. He also gets into what real masculinity looks like, his MMA record training alongside former UFC champion Chris Weidman, and the faith journey that turned a lifelong skeptic into a proud Mormon. There's a gold rush happening right now in home services and most people are completely asleep on it. Sam breaks down exactly where the money is and how to get in.
