"While Ron’s book certainly will become the HVAC industry’s essential guide to building a successful contracting business, this is first and foremost a book about leadership. It is a compelling story of a boy with a dream and how he built his business success around a belief in the goodness of people. Ron’s basic philosophy is simple – he cares about people. In his business life, it’s about his customers and his employees (associates). In his personal life, it’s about family and friends. And I consider myself lucky to be one of those friends. Thank you Ron for taking the time to give your story to our industry.”
