Jayson Waller. The Highs and Lows of Creating a Business. Episode 605 with The Real Brad Lea (TRBL) - a podcast by Brad Lea: CEO, Entrepreneur, and Host of The Bottom Line

Raised in a trailer park with no clear path to success, kicked out of high school and faced with becoming a father in his teens, Jayson Waller is the definition of a “True Underdog.” The True Underdog podcast is inspired by Jayson’s journey as listeners hear high-profile guests share motivational tips, inspiring stories and business-building lessons to help other potential underdogs pave the way. Jayson went from driving a limousine on weekends to support his young family and his young business to eventually becoming a partner in a second home security business, Power Home Technologies. He helped grow the company to $28 million in annual revenue. After seeing another home security entrepreneur, Vivint’s Todd Pedersen, successfully transition into the solar industry, Jayson felt that it made sense for him to make the same move. In 2014, Power Home Technologies rebranded as POWERHOME SOLAR.

 POWERHOME SOLAR has grown to over 1,600 employees and nearly $200 million in annual revenue. In 2020, the company was ranked the seventh residential solar installer in the U.S. by Solar Power World and 255th on Inc. 5000’s list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. In 2019, Jayson was named Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year in the Emerging Services category, proving that hard work can get you anywhere.

In this episode, Brad and Jayson discuss the highs and lows of creating a business.
