From $700K to $15M: How He Built an Electrical Business in 5 Years

From $700K to $15M in just five years. Shane Viggiani has nearly doubled his electrical business every year, growing from one truck to a 50-person operation in Las Vegas. John Wilson sits down with Shane, owner of Ampere Electric, to break down the strategies behind that growth. They discuss how Shane built over 3,000 Google reviews, structured technician commissions, developed his management team, and maintained roughly 15% net margins while scaling. They also get into the mistakes that nearly derailed his early growth, why hands-on technician training has been so effective, and how he's thinking about acquisitions as he works toward $30M in annual revenue. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In This Episode: ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Growing an electrical business from $700K to a $15M annual revenue pace How 3,000 Google reviews became a competitive advantage Hiring managers, building teams, and scaling operations Technician commissions, sales training, and incentives Maintaining profitability during rapid growth Buying vs. building a home service business The path from $15M to $30M ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Sponsors ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FieldPulse Ready to ditch the whiteboard and spreadsheets?
