Mike tells me he did not start out planning on HVAC, but after life took a few turns and he teamed up with the right partner, he found work he believes in. He explains that UKV HVAC solves comfort problems for homes and businesses, from heating and cooling issues to water leaks from a system. What hits me most is his point about betting on yourself. He talks about reaching a place where life looked stable, but the work did not light him up, and now he wakes up ready to go. We also get into common misconceptions about pricing in the HVAC world and the real challenge of finding people who not only know the trade, but also care about doing the job right. Mike closes by talking about sharpening sales skills, keeping the right outlook, and holding to his faith no matter what.","meta_description":"In this episode of the Kanawha Valley Hustlers podcast, I talk with Mike Means of UKV HVAC about how he got into the business, what his company does, and…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":285,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/kanawha-valley-hustlers-6379539/episodes/mike-means-on-building-ukv-hvac/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/kanawha-valley-hustlers-6379539/mike-means-on-building-ukv-hvac.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
