In short, our guests will show you how to transform your home service business into a masterpiece. [Sid Graef]: Thanks for joining us on the wild journey of entrepreneurship. Let's dive in.

You may know Brandon Vaughn as the guy who built All-Clean SoftWash—a power washing company in Oregon—from zero employees (just one guy) up to 70 employees in a very short period of time, or you might know him from the Conquer coaching program, or you might know him from HireBus. He is truly a serial entrepreneur, but he started on the ladder, in the truck, running a home service business, washing windows with his dad. Eventually he took over his dad's company, grew it exponentially, then sold it. He built another business to serve home service businesses, and he continues to do that.

I'm so thankful Brandon was able to join us. Enjoy our time with Brandon Vaughn. [Sid Graef]: Hello, everybody, and welcome back. It's the Huge Transformations Podcast, and today you're going to be really excited, like I am. We have my friend and an industry leader for a lot of years, Brandon Vaughn, on the show. Brandon, thank you so much for joining us. How are you? [Brandon Vaughn]: What's up, Sid? I'm doing great, man. Thanks for having me. [Sid Graef]: Good. For those who can't see: Brandon, you're on the treadmill. You posted—and I chatted with you about it—your body fat dropped. You credited the ...
