The Snap! Mobile territory
I started as the first rep in a territory doing roughly $300K. The motion I built was field-led: reach coaches and program leaders before the school day started, back it with calls, texts, referrals, and district relationships.
The territory hit $750K in year one. Then $1.3M, $1.8M, $2.0M, and a $2.5M annualized pace. Full cycle the whole way: I prospected the accounts, closed them, launched them, renewed them, and grew them.
Contracting years into reusable software
I ran my own residential exteriors company: roofing, siding, gutters. I built the software that ran it, from lead capture through estimates, production, and collections, because nothing on the market matched how the work actually moved.
Then I extracted that software into reusable contractor templates. Custom contractor builds at Buildout Studios now start from those templates instead of a blank repo, and Buildout Measure exists because I knew firsthand how slow roof measurement was.
A customer implementation
A home-improvement contractor in Chicago hired Buildout Studios for a custom CRM. He walked me through how an insurance restoration job actually moves, from first inspection through final payment, roughly fifty steps.
I built his workflow into software he owns: staged automations, e-signature, damage-report PDFs, photo documentation on every job, and an instant quote widget priced for his market. He paid $3,500 plus hosting, and he runs his business on it today.
