Operator buys and integrates a plumbing business as a new branch

John Wilson, CEO of a $40M Ohio home-service company, describes acquiring a small but profitable plumbing business and folding it in as a branch, doubling its sales in 90 days by centralizing admin, marketing, and call-center functions.

“This might be something that you are not able to do. But for us, because we were buying this company and making it a branch, we were able to take on all of their administrative burden.”
