    I’ve been in the painting business for over 21 years, and joining Painter Growth has been the single most impactful decision I’ve made for my company. Mike and the founding team have built something truly special here. It’s no surprise they won the prestigious PCA (Painting Contractors Association) Award this year for helping the most painters grow—their impact on the industry is undeniable. Before I teamed up with them, we were sitting at around 25 reviews. After plugging into their systems, we’ve skyrocketed to over 110 five-star reviews on Google, making us the dominant force in our local market. What Mike has created is essentially a "McDonald’s-style" franchise model for independent painters—it is pure plug-and-play. Even more impressive? I’ve only implemented about 25% of their systems so far, and the growth has already been explosive. They don’t just provide a service; they provide a roadmap to success. From the high-level Masterminds to the incredible discounts they negotiate for members (like 20% off Drip Jobs for life), they are constantly looking out for our bottom line. Mike and his team are genuinely invested in preserving the art of craftsmanship while teaching us how to scale from a transactional mindset to a professional, relational business. If you are a painting contractor looking to stop guessing and start growing, you need to be working with Painter Growth. They are the gold standard.

    Absolutely love the team and community in PainterGrowth. The coaches are all seasoned vets, and their wisdom shows. I’ve spent multiple 6 figures on coaching across different platforms and groups. PainterGrowth is by far the best. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to grow your contracting business. They’ve helped me grow from on the tools contractor to CEO these past few months. I would’ve burned myself out and quit without my PainterGrowth coach. Instead I’m now able to take some time off when I want, and can finally spend time with family & friends.(without stressing about my business the entire time). Thanks PainterGrowth team and my coach Chris

    Mike and the team at Painter Growth have been immensely helpful in providing the blueprint we needed to scale our business.

    If you run a painting business, I would highly recommend going with them to grow your painting contractor business

    It is well worth the investment. And it pays for itself in a short amount of time.

    Our painting business has completely transformed in the few months I have worked with Painter Growth. They have far exceeded my expectations! The personal business mentor has been a game changer!

    Before joining PainterGrowth, we thought we were a successful painting business because we were great painters: we were getting customer referrals, winning bids, working consistently, and had great reviews on jobs. BUT WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WE DIDN'T KNOW! We were on our way to being a cautionary tale common to many small business owners: we didn't know our numbers, we didn't have systems, and we didn't have reliable and replicable sources of leads that were good for painting company growth. As a result, we were making very little money after expenses and taxes, but we didn't know. It's been a tough wakeup all, but already within the first couple of months we're a totally different business. We now know where we were going wrong and how we can continually grow, increase profits, and do the kinds of projects we enjoy. A huge thanks to Mike Gore-Hickman, the PainterGrowth Team and the entire PainterGrowth community for helping us realize our blind spots and grow beyond them!

    Painter Growth is exactly what it promises. Massive change and growth, from knowing your numbers, tracking sales, advertising to get more leads, learning to be a better sales person and staying accountable with excellent coaches who share your journey of transformation. I highly recommend that you check out the program for yourself. After 20 years of painting I still learn lots of new things every week! You won’t be disappointed with this program.
