Roofing contractors- essential to solar panel installation- perfect candidate for dealer- "We love roofers." (LOL)

Old debt has been paid off. Note has been significantly decreased.
All accounting is current and on weekly basis (Payroll, A/R, etc)
(1:09:00) New model to be tested: RENU oversees candidate company and creates dealer in new terrirtory (Six figure pay in, made back in 90 days if follow program). Dealer- SubDealer Program
Texas is as big as Japan. (Host comment). wink
(1:13:00) Lynn Nemes EVP- running the day to day. Frees Jeff up to sell the company and do the public work, and still be in touch with business end.
Not afraid to hire someone that is smarter and let them do their job.
Having done all aspects of company, gives Jeff insight as to who to hire do specific jobs.
Lots of other tidbits, facts and interesting stuff. A must listen for any investor, IMO.
Best.
