Hire Brandon James to speak
Brandon James built an $84 million roofing company out of one market, sold it to private equity as a single owner, and he’s still in it, building every day. He turned his own leaders into millionaires: leaders who create leaders who create leaders. He brings the raw story and the system behind it to rooms full of home service owners and operators.

Why rooms remember him
Brandon came home from 10 years in prison and built a 7-figure company in 3 years. At $5 million, he fired everyone and rebuilt on a standard. Then he took it to a national record, sold it as a single owner, and kept building.
He speaks like a man who has been to the bottom and refuses to pretend otherwise: direct, faith-driven, zero BS, and generous with the game. Audiences leave inspired and challenged, with something they can install Monday morning.
From the main stage to a breakout of twenty owners, Brandon brings the same standard.

90 min+
A working session where owners build pieces of the system on the spot.
30–45 min
Unscripted Q&A on leadership, culture, sales teams and private equity.
Flexible
