Join Jonathon Henderson from Pressure Washing Marketing Pros as he sits down with Corey Edmonds—former owner of a $2.3 million exterior cleaning company and founder of My Service Robot—to talk automation, delegation, and the systems that separate chaos from scale.
In this high-impact episode, Corey shares how he went from losing money in a $700K business at 21 to building and selling a multi-million dollar pressure washing company in Washington State. Now running one of the most respected automation firms for home service businesses, Corey gives you the blueprint to systemize everything—from lead follow-up and crew reminders to automated safety training and performance-based pay.
If you're still on the truck or stuck chasing leads manually, this is your wake-up call. Corey breaks down what most pressure washers get wrong with CRMs like Jobber, Housecall Pro, and Markate—and how to fix it fast using the tools inside Go High Level and My Service Robot.
Key topics covered in this episode include:
✅ How Corey scaled from $0 to $2.3M with systems and automations
✅ The most important automation every pressure washer needs
✅ How to automate your hiring funnel from application to onboarding
✅ Why automating training protects you (and saves thousands)
✅ How to implement performance pay and drive technician accountability
✅ The difference between an FSM and a true CRM
✅ Why “I need more leads” is the wrong mindset
✅ How to capture and convert every lead (without chasing them)
✅ Tips for setting up follow-ups, review requests, and reactivation campaigns
