In this episode of Main Street Masters, I sit down with serial entrepreneur Tim Hatch, owner of Blue Skies RV Parks, a Rolling Suds franchise, and a growing real estate powerhouse known as The Leaf Group.
Tim shares his brutally honest journey — from fixing toilets at 2AM as a struggling operator, to building a multi-company empire spanning power washing, hospitality, and property management.
We talk about:
The tough lessons that shaped his leadership
What it really takes to run multiple businesses
His philosophy on scaling small businesses
And what kind of buyer he’d trust with his legacy
Whether you’re a searcher, buyer, or business owner yourself — this episode is full of real-world insight, hard-earned wisdom, and practical advice you won’t get from a textbook.
🎧 Tune in and hear how one operator turned grit into growth.
