Is growing your electrical business exhausting you?
When you run a electrical business, and you’re great at what you do work floods in, and your operations can spin out of your control.
Clients and GC’s badger you with never-ending questions
Your techs call you 100 times a day, forcing you to work IN your business (not ON it)
And a lack of skilled tradespeople makes building the dream team feel like an uphill battel
All the while, fly-by-nighters are constantly underbidding you
Curious if this is right for you?
Not quite ready yet?
That’s why we created Breakthrough Academy.

Business networking on steroids.
Crowdsourced solutions, healthy competition, and endless inspiration all await you inside Breakthrough Academy’s one-of-a-kind entrepreneurial ecosystem.
BTA opened our eyes to what owning and running a trades business should be. We didn't know what we didn't know before BTA. The coaching and interaction with other like minded owners is amazing. The atmosphere is positive and encouraging, and your coach takes an active interest in your personal and professional well being. We've been with BTA for 3 years, but I can't remember what running our business was like before them.
As my electrical business is grew, I knew I needed to get professional help to grow it in the right direction. Working with BTA has been a game changer! Everyone at BTA is beyond helpful and a pleasure to work with. The community they have built with business-minded entrepreneurs is invaluable. Choosing to work with Breakthrough Academy has been one of my best business decisions yet!
All I can say is I wish I found BTA and my coach about 10 years ago.

Mike Van Capelle
Nik and Sam started painting houses to pay their way through college. Growth brought along serious challenges, though. Their business had matured, and headcount had grown, but their systems hadn't. After a few years of turning away work they couldn't get to, they realized they needed to overhaul their systems—badly.
By implementing a Strategic Plan, Goal Setting and Review (GSR) meetings, and an effective tech stack, Ryan was able to automate and delegate his way to a more strategic role in the company.
When VanCity Electric owner Cory Byron first joined Breakthrough Academy, he was struggling to make his business profitable. The company was growing.

With the help of Breakthrough Academy, Brad has implemented high-impact business systems, including an organizational chart, employment agreements, and ideal candidate profiles to improve hiring.
Like most builders, Mike Van Capelle started his entrepreneurial journey with a passion for quality construction and the guts to take the plunge.

Jason Hoke
Like most builders, Mike Van Capelle started his entrepreneurial journey with a passion for quality construction and the guts to take the plunge. A few years later, though, he was pulling his hair out.
Forest Street Builders’ first few years were rocky. Ian was the classic "One-Man Band," estimating, selling, project managing, forming, framing, finishing—he was doing ALL THE THINGS.
Scraping together every dollar to his name (and then some) Jason acquired A Cut Above Landscape from his previous employer. To say his first few years were a "grind" would be a gross understatement.

Jon Drew
Jon Drew always wanted to work for himself, and when he started Refined Exteriors with a long-time friend, he knew he'd made the right choice. But, the growth of the company led to new challenges.

Cory Byron
When VanCity Electric owner Cory Byron first joined Breakthrough Academy, he was struggling to make his business profitable. The company was growing and the work kept coming, but without understanding the ins and outs of budgeting, job costing or financial controls, Cory found himself doing side jobs outside the business just to make ends meet.
Everything else you need to know about BTA.
The more, the better, but we recommend a minimum of 5 hours per week. Our average Member stays in the Implementation Phase for between 2 and 3 years and many much longer.
When you begin Breakthrough Academy, you read and sign a Member Agreement, which recommends a 12-month minimum. But if it simply isn’t a fit, you can leave with a month's notice.
No problem. We start by prioritizing the most essential systems and begin implementing them at a tempo you can handle. The best time to start systemizing your business was 5 years ago; the second best time is now. Don’t wait; there will never be a “perfect time.”
Too early to say! Once you finish Blueprint, we will match you with one of our expert coaches based on your industry, size, and specific business needs. You can learn more about our coaches here.
Through software tools, video calls, and proprietary tracking systems, you’ll feel like your coach is sitting right next to you. We get to know you and your business intimately. You’ll be surprised at how effective our remote setup is.
