Michael Murray entered the painting industry the summer before his junior year of high school, years before Textbook Painting was a real company. By college, the side hustle had grown enough that he had to make a call: stay a solo painter, or build a real business.
He chose to build, and in this episode he walks us through how. We talk about the mindset shift that pushed him to hire ahead of need, the org chart moves that took propelled Textbook into a market leader with a full leadership team, and the pricing changes behind that growth.
If you're an owner staring at a growth ceiling, this one's for you. What moves the number is the fundamentals: the right leadership structure, P&L ownership pushed down to your team, and selling value instead of price.
