about The Podcast

Real talk. Real growth. For garage door pros.

About Lifted – The Garage Door Podcast

Lifted – The Garage Door Podcast is built for one purpose, to elevate the garage door industry through real conversations, practical strategies, and authentic stories.

This is where garage door professionals, marketers, and business owners come together to talk growth — from mastering SEO and lead generation to building better teams and scaling operations. Every episode is focused on helping you work smarter, market better, and grow faster.

Whether you’re an installer, service tech, or company owner, Lifted gives you the tools, insights, and motivation to lift your business to the next level.

Why This Show Exists

There are thousands of podcasts about marketing, business, and leadership.

But there’s almost nothing out there that talks honestly about the garage door business itself — what it’s like to run crews, deal with customers, manage the chaos, and still build something you’re proud of.

That’s why I started The Garage Door Podcast.

This show is my way of giving the industry a voice — a place to celebrate the companies that are out there doing the work, innovating, and raising the bar for everyone else.

We go beyond “how to” advice and talk about the why — why some shops scale while others stall, why certain markets explode, and why the best operators keep showing up day after day.

What You’ll Hear

Each conversation goes deep.

We’ll talk about early days — first installs, first customers, first big mistakes. We’ll talk about the shift from one truck to multiple crews, what it’s like to lead a team, and how owners manage growth without losing their sanity.

Expect to hear stories about tough calls, funny jobs, and the little details that make or break a company. And we’ll also talk about where the industry’s heading — from smart openers and connected homes to AI scheduling, automation, and the next generation of technicians.

This podcast is equal parts education and entertainment. You’ll walk away with something new to think about every episode — a tool, a tactic, or a mindset shift that makes your business stronger.

Who It’s For

The Garage Door Podcast is made for the people who make the industry happen.

Owners, installers, techs, suppliers, and the next wave of folks thinking about getting into the trade.

If you’re building something — whether that’s a company, a crew, or just a better version of yourself — you’ll fit right in here.

This show is your chance to learn from others who’ve been where you are and built something you can model after.

My Promise to You

No fluff. No egos. No fake success stories.

Just real conversations with people who’ve earned their stripes, told through the lens of someone who genuinely cares about this business and the people in it.

If you’re proud of what you do and you want to hear from others who feel the same, welcome — you’re in the right place.
