In this episode of To The Point, Chris sits down with Alyssa Rogers, Vice President of Rogers Heating & Cooling, to talk about explosive growth in a tiny market, navigating doubters, scaling to multiple locations, and the bold vision of building a $100M home services company out of South Boston, Virginia (population <10k).

Alyssa shares how she and her husband Joey took the business from $600K to $10M, why they turned down a life-changing private equity offer, how they opened their second location, and the real sacrifices behind building a generational company including selling their dream home and living above their office.
