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.

“Before BTA, I was working 80 hours a week but not going where I wanted to be BTA has changed my business and outlook on what I need to be doing with my time, and now I’m working under 40 hours a week!”
“Breakthrough Academy has really helped me transition from thinking like a carpenter to thinking like a business owner. Their coaching and content has taught me how to organize and structure my business. The results are increased profits and more time to spend with my family.”
Being in this community has allowed me access to ideas and best practices through the mastermind events and our regular biweekly pods, where we have the chance to exchange ideas amongst our peers, problem-solve, and set goals to implement what is needed. My business today is light years ahead of where it was 5 years ago, and BTA and the community I am a part of has had a huge hand in that
“ Prior to joining BTA, we did just under a million dollars in revenue with myself and another salesperson. And then this year with just myself, we will be doubling our revenue overall to about two million.”
“ Allentuck Landscaping Co. grew a combined 55% and became more profitable than we had been in years. More importantly than that, we grew people who became leaders, developed a strong culture, and created processes that will continue to drive growth and strengthen our team.”
“The guidance and support of the team of Breakthrough Academy and our coach has been instrumental to our success and growth of our business. We look forward to continued success and partnership with the support of the entire BTA team. ”
“Before BTA, I actually lived on a pull-out couch in my office. It was a really stressful time. My life has changed significantly since that initial year prior to BTA. Rather than fighting to stay above water, I'm focused on how I'm going to create the next wave.”
“If you're not sure if BTA is worth the cost because you don't think you have the revenue to support it, then you definitely need their help and will be happy you did it once you are running a less stressful and more profitable business. ”
Highly recommend BTA for any trades business owner trying to grow their business, make more money, and have more free time. The coaches provide great accountability and guidance, but it's the BTA community that is truly sets BTA apart.
“I joined BTA three years ago, and it is the best business decision that I have ever made. Since joining BTA my company is more organized, I hire better employees, revenue and net profits are way up.”
“BTA gave me the tools. They showed me that I can be profitable. They showed me that I can make money. Within the first year, I actually was profitable. After four years of not being profitable. That's huge."
“When I first joined Breakthrough Academy, I was at 700, 000 in revenue with roughly around a 25 percent gross margin This year, we're going to do 1 million in revenue at a 50 percent gross margin.”
