## Resource

In our penultimate interview episode of Season 9, we sit down with Adam Powell from Powell Insulation for a proper, honest conversation about building a modern trade business while staying rooted in family values. Adam takes us back to the early days, growing up around the business his father built, and what it was like stepping into that world before putting his own stamp on it. We get into how he’s taken Powell Insulation in a new direction, embracing social media and paid ads to generate leads and grow the brand in a competitive industry. From there, we talk about levelling up standards, the importance of uniforms, wrapped vans, and presenting a professional image that reflects the quality of the work. We also break down the real benefits of home insulation, and the government grants available right now that homeowners should be taking advantage of. And to wrap it all up… we finish with:What’s the weirdest thing Adam has ever found in an atticTrust us, you’ll want to hear this one.
