ATTENTION:
Home Improvement Business Owners
Who are READY to Take Control of
Their Businesses
IMAGINE
A DRAMATIC TRANSFORMATION
IN YOUR BUSINESS AND YOUR LIFE
Dear Contractor,
For three years now, most home improvement business owners have had this mantra playing in their heads on repeat:
Just Keep Up... Just Keep Up... JUST KEEP UP…
Keep the plates spinning. Keep the balls in the air. Keep putting fires out. Desperately call everyone you know to try and find materials. Raise your prices before your sales eat into your profit margins. Hire anyone who will get the job done because there’s not enough labor. Figure out how to compete with the GIANT company that just bought your competitor.
Sound familiar?
But now that the market is contracting back to its normal state, we can take a breath. There’s time to evaluate. To take control. And now, it’s time to dream.
It may even be time to ask yourself:
Where Do I Want My Business to Go Now?
And now that you aren't JUST trying to keep up...
How can you take the momentum of the last three years and CREATE a business and a life that you LOVE getting up for every single day?
Now, Wait Just a Second:
I hate to be a wet blanket, but there’s one thing we have to take care of first.
In order to dream, the first thing you’re going to have to do (and you’re NOT going to want to hear this) is tidy up your business. We’ve all gotten a little sloppy over the past three years.
It’s time to assess the talent we’re working with. What systems are working?... Which ones aren’t?... Where do you need a system that doesn’t already exist?... How are you getting leads?... What’s the efficiency of your marketing funnel?... How’s your profit model holding up in this economy?
What’s worked for you over the PAST 3 years will not work for the NEXT 3 years.
And the best way to figure all of this out is with expert guidance. You need to hear from people who have been there, done that, and are doing it still - to this day - to share with you how to run the most efficient, most profitable business possible.
Once you have a firm foundation, then you’re able to dream seemingly impossible dreams.
Do you want to be #1 in your market?
Do you want to dominate ANOTHER market? 10 other markets?
Do you want to add a completely new product line?
Do you want to engineer your business to start giving you and your family the life you deserve?
ALL of this is completely possible - if you are open to setting your ego aside and learning from others.
Will you be able to do this by watching a free webinar or a YouTube video? NOT A CHANCE.
To make the shift that is required in your business, you need to spend 2 entire days in a unique environment surrounded by like-minded contractors who are bucking the expectations that they have to suffer some kind of “payback” for having tasted success these past two years.
You need to put yourself in the position to hear from real-world experts who have been in the trenches. Ones who have seen first-hand what works and what doesn’t.
Speaking of... Who am I, and why should you even listen to me?
I’m Brian Kaskavalciyan, Host of The Wealthy Contractor Podcast and Co-Founder of gFour Marketing Group, the back-office relationship marketing firm for hundreds of successful contractors across the country.
More importantly, I’ve sat exactly where you’re sitting right now. I owned five home improvement and home services businesses (one I turned into a national franchise), and I’ve worked with some of the nation’s top home improvement business owners who have made their “impossible dreams” come to life.
Since the early days of my entrepreneurial journey, I’ve had the great fortune of meeting and working with some of the very best contractors and experts in our industry. From these relationships, I’ve gained more knowledge and wisdom about this business than I ever thought I could possibly have.
What’s important to me now is that every contractor who wants to do better for themselves - anyone who wants to achieve greater success, wealth and freedom - has access to the knowledge and the power to make that happen.
At the Wealthy Contractor, we believe in one thing: YOU (even when you don’t believe in yourself).
THAT’S why I created Accelerate LIVE!® - to bring contractors together to share the quickest way for you to up-level your business, without the headaches and hassles of figuring it all out yourself.
And THAT’S why I’d like YOU to join me and 400 other attendees from growth-minded home improvement businesses at Accelerate LIVE!® 2024 in sunny Orlando, Florida.
You’ll hear from speakers on Marketing, Sales, People, Profits and Mindset. (That’s right - we’re going to focus on the ONE thing that impacts your business more than anything else - YOU.) This is like no event you’ve attended before.
Let me make this very clear: Anyone who steps onstage at Accelerate LIVE!® is speaking to you from experience. There are no theories. No opinions. No assumptions. And definitely no Bulls##t.
Likewise, everyone on stage is very approachable, and their path to success is completely attainable. Any expert who joins us is talking about how you can take your business to the next level - not how to run a 50-location $200 Million Dollar business.
***Something very important that I want you to know for any event you consider attending in the future to avoid this trap that a lot of entrepreneurs fall into when seeking advice:
Don’t look to the #1 company in your industry and take the advice that their CEO gave at a keynote on some huge stage in front of some hedge fund investors. That CEO has no freaking clue what your business is like.
Trying to act like a business that’s 100 times bigger than you are is going to lead to disaster.
You need to look at the company that is 2, 10, 15 steps ahead of you. That’s where you’ll find the secret sauce to take that next step forward in your business.
At Accelerate LIVE!® 2024, you are going to discover the very best tools, insights, tactics and strategies to help make your dreams a reality.
The only thing is - YOU have to take action.
The Accelerate speakers and I can’t go home and put the systems in place for you. We can’t hire the people you need to hire. We can’t put the training in place that you need.
So if you’re just looking to go to a seminar that pumps you up and makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside - don’t bother. This is not your event.
But if you want to find out the best practices that are WORKING for contractors today and make connections with the best in the business and you’re hungry for the roadmap that you’ll then use to take your business to the next level…
This event is for YOU.
Don’t drag your feet, because these tickets will sell out. (They have EVERY year since 2017.)
Early Bird prices are available, but not for long. Take advantage of the savings now, and sign up to join us in Orlando, Florida February 6th - 7th for Accelerate LIVE!® 2024.
I cannot wait to see you there!
Dedicated to YOUR Success,
Brian Kaskavalciyan
Jon Tenbrinke, Owner of Black Jack Contracting, Inc.
“Brian and his team have changed my business and my life. His events and programs are by far the best in the industry. He has become a great friend and mentor. He doesn't care about flashy, he cares about building a world class business that gives the owner a lifestyle of their dreams!”

WHY 2024 IS THE YEAR FOR HOME IMPROVEMENT COMPANIES TO REVOLUTIONIZE THE WAY THEY DO BUSINESS
With interest rates skyrocketing, it’s getting harder and harder for homeowners to get financing for home improvements. In fact, the Fed says lenders rejected 22% of loan applications in the last 12 months. *That’s the HIGHEST rejection rate in more than five years.
CFOs across the country have cited inflation as the #1 threat to their business. It’s likely an enormous threat to yours, especially if you’re not even aware of the damage it’s doing.
Consumers have higher expectations than ever before. 88% of buyers say experience matters as much as a company's products or services. By finding out how other companies are “Wow”-ing their customers, you can apply those same principles to stand out in your local market.
Technology is rapidly changing the state of the industry. Today, 34% of businesses use A.I. and an additional 42% are exploring how to use it in their business. It’s critical that you join these ranks and figure out how to use this technology in your business. We’ll show you how.
Home improvement spending is expected to decline faster in 2024, according to the Harvard Business Review, with a 5.9% year-over-year shrinkage expected by 2Q of 2024.
As consumer debt reaches its highest point ever, Americans are being forced to tighten their purse strings and move home improvement down their list of priorities. With the market restricting, competition for leads will intensify.
On the other hand, the home is still a priority - even for consumers on a strict budget. Homeowners with low incomes are STILL spending 20% of their income on home improvement. Their home is their greatest investment, and they need help protecting it.
The good news is, you’ve chosen to be an entrepreneur. You get to have control over your fate, and your opportunities are vast - no matter what the media says. You can turn this into your banner year, if you take action now.
Choosing to be great in the face of adversity isn’t something you want to put on hold. Your employees, your customers and your family deserve for you to be the kind of leader that they are proud to follow
Right now is the PERFECT time to dream bigger, accelerate faster and PUSH yourself and your business BEYOND your LIMITS.
2024 IS YOUR YEAR.
John Kolbaska, Owner of The Men with Tools
"When I attended my first Accelerate in 2019, we were doing maybe $800,000 and if there was a net profit, it was less than 5%. I heard all of these smart, wealthy contractors on stage, and I was just in awe. I took everything I learned, I went back and within 30 days, I implemented it. And we’ve doubled our business each year. Three years later, we surpassed $5 million dollars in revenue with a 20% net profit."
WHEN YOU COME TO ACCELERATE LIVE!® 2024 IN
SUNNY ORLANDO, YOU’LL GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO:
Learn from speakers with impressive track records of success in your industry
>> You will NOT hear from motivational speakers who leave you with no practical takeaways
>> You will NOT have your time wasted with charlatans who are simply peddling their latest wares on stage, hoping to make a few bucks off of you before they get out of town
Tap into the knowledge and experience of hundreds of other growth-minded contractors to help accelerate the growth of your business
>> And it’s not just in the sessions. Your ticket includes breakfast and lunch both days of the conference, plus a networking cocktail hour where you’ll get to pick the minds of success-minded home improvement entrepreneurs.
Gain strategies, tactics and tools that are tailored to home improvement business owners
>> If you are a business owner who wants to bring a spouse, a partner or a “GSD - Get S##t Done” Person with you - great. Having a close team that gets your vision and can execute on it for you is invaluable.
>> What you WON’T have to do is sit through sessions that are tailored for a salesperson, an accountant, a customer service rep. We strongly believe that YOU are the most important person to your business. If you get the tools you need to improve the business, everyone benefits.
Discover solutions from vetted partners to help you make more money
>> You won’t be forced to walk through a huge expo hall where any vendor can get in and you don’t know WHO you can trust
>> Accelerate LIVE!® Sponsors are specifically chosen based on their ability to help you transform your business so that you can achieve greater success, wealth and freedom

See What Accelerate LIVE!® Attendees Have to Say
"If it was possible to give a TEN star+ review we would! The Wealthy Contractor and Accelerate have revolutionized our business and will continue to do so for many years to come - we have been sharing nonstop with every other business owner we encounter that it would be a detriment for them to not check it out for themselves!!"
Kim Wilson, Owner of Kingdom Contracting
“I will make more money for my company by investing in these two days than you could ever make working on or in your business for two days from your desk.”
Robert Watts, Owner of RJW Exteriors
“This is one of the best conferences we’ve ever been to. At some seminars, you have some time to go up and get a little work done, but not here. You didn’t want to miss anything. The lineup from top to bottom was absolutely action-packed.”
Jason Herbert, Owner of Herbert Roofing & Insulation
“The biggest thing I get out of Accelerate is the friendships and the information that everybody is willing to share - all of their “secrets”. The companies that are doing things that I want to be doing - I’m able to listen to them, I’m able to talk to them, to find out what’s working in their business, what’s NOT working in their business, and I like to take that information back to my company, implement those great ideas and hopefully make it better for my employees and my customers.”
John Rogers, Owner of Rogers Roofing
“Of all the events I go to, this is the only one you should spend your money on.”
Dany Peterson, Owner of Integrity Home Pro
“If you want to light your business on fire, this is the conference to do it with. We’ve been to a lot of different conferences around the country through different organizations, and this is by far the one with the most takeaways we’ve ever had.”
Michelle Coors, Owner of Coors Remodeling
"You're with the best in the industry - the best of the best. You get to network and grow. And there's phenomenal content. You're going to be able to take a few nuggets home to your business that you're going to be able to immediately use and become more profitable."
Tim Brown, Jr., Owner of RGS Exteriors
“This is my third event here at Accelerate. We come back every year because there’s just so many great speakers. Brian and Adi have been able to bring in the best of the industry. And every time we walk away, there is somebody that I've met, there's a vendor that we've decided to work with, and I come away with nuggets every year that things that we've implemented that have helped us improve our business.”
Jaime Austin, President of Storm Guard of Southern Wisconsin
"If you are a contractor and want to maximize your profits and life, you need to dig into the resources available through the Wealthy Contractor and attend Accelerate LIVE! Ever since I met Brian a few years ago I have been applying his profit multipliers that have made me more money every year. And I work less each year!"
Patrick Readyhough, Owner of Pond Roofing
“This was our second year for Accelerate Live, and I cannot say enough great things! People say as long as you can pull one idea from a conference it was worth it. You can 10x that with this conference no matter how many times you have attended!"
Ross Alt, Owner of Alt’s Exteriors
“One of the things I love most about Accelerate Live when I come - this is my second time I've been here - is that every time I come, I learn something new that builds on itself from the last time I was here. So what that helps me do is it helps me to go back into my business and it helps me to build and grow more and more. And one of the things I love about Brian K is that he always teaches us the things that benefit our business.”
Brian Yokeley, Storm Guard of Plymouth
"Ever since I started listening to and using The Wealthy Contractor advice and suggestions and attending Accelerate, it has transformed my business. "
Erik Mattsson, Owner of Mattsson Roofing

There is a ton of knowledge and experience in the room and Brian can show you how to get the most from your business, making more money and working less! Every time I attend this event I have valuable things to implement in my business!”
