Change and evolution rarely come easily or naturally for an entire company. As the founder and CEO of Next Gear Solutions, I have spent years helping thousands of restoration contractors do one primary thing: drive major change in their business. 

I admit that when starting Next Gear Solutions, I thought the same thing. A family is much better than a cold business environment that cares only about the company’s needs and not about the needs of the employee, right? If faced with only those two options, I would continue to choose the “family business model,” but I believe there is another more optimal choice, which is the “sports team” business model.  

As the founder and CEO of a restoration industry software company, I have recently had to do some soul searching on what kind of business I want to run and what core values should guide the decisions I make. 

Expectations of restoration contractors have been changing for several years, and we are facing a tipping point where fast is no longer fast enough — real-time is all that matters.

There is nothing more powerful in life and business than the ability to harness the power of now.

What if there was a tool that could dramatically improve company culture, raise net profits, and increase customer satisfaction?
