Service jobs. Trade jobs. In-Home Technician jobs. They aren’t glamorous and some are down right dirty. Our guest today, Greg Crumpton, says these noble professions take some serious soft skills training to establish trust, build reputation and survive in an industry that feels more commoditized by the day.
Greg Crumpton has spent nearly four decades in the critical emission and full mechanical service industry. Greg has since “retired” from to become the vice president of of Critical Facilities & Technology for Service Logic, one of the largest privately held HVAC and mechanical service providers in the United States.
Regardless of whether you’re in a service or trade industry or not, this episode is a look into how vital customer service and training can be in a growing but ever-shifting economy.
