I've been the contractor, the branch manager, and the rep. Now I coach lighting contractors one-on-one to sell bigger jobs, hold their margin, and stop competing on price.
This is not a course and it is not a seminar. We work together one-on-one on your actual bids, your actual designs, and your actual jobs. Every engagement starts with a free 20-minute strategy call where you tell me your biggest challenge and I tell you exactly where I'd start. From there we set a plan and meet regularly to work it. You get a coach who has stood where you're standing and has no products to sell you.

How to walk a homeowner through their property, build the value before you ever talk numbers, and win as the highest bid on the job without dropping your price when they push.
You can't bid, design, or troubleshoot what you don't understand. The core technical knowledge that everything else is built on.
The principles behind lighting design that looks great, sells itself, and holds up over time.
Stop bidding to lose. Use field-tested strategies to command elite margins and close the deal based on expertise, not the lowest number.
Training that cuts callbacks, warranty claims, and the headaches that eat your margin.
Advanced diagnostics so your crew can fix problems on-site instead of calling for help.
Maintenance contracts that keep cash coming in and clients coming back.
The basics of running a lighting business that's organized, profitable, and built to grow.

Two problems come up in almost every distributor conversation I have. Your team isn't selling the lighting aisle, and you're carrying four or five lighting lines with no clear picture of how they fit together. Every line has a job it's built for and a contractor it's priced for. I help you map that out and train your counter staff and outside reps to sell from it. Rep agencies looking to build a specification strategy for low voltage, same deal. Book a call and we'll talk.

I started landscaping at 15. Over the next 25 years I worked every side of this industry: at the counter as a branch manager, in the field running my own award winning firm, and leading a manufacturer's sales team across the West.
That trajectory revealed a massive disconnect. There is plenty of excellent lighting product sitting on distributor shelves but a lack of high level strategy for the professionals who sell and install it. Viewpoint was founded to bridge that gap. I am not here as a brand representative. I am an independent expert providing the unfiltered frameworks I have used to build and scale at every level of the industry. I do not deal in theory. I deal in field tested results.
Tell me your biggest challenge. I'll tell you exactly where I'd start. Every engagement begins with a direct conversation about what's holding your operation back. No boilerplate, no generic programs, no wasted time. If you're ready to stop competing on price and start leading with expertise, I want to hear from you.
