Hire a Veteran: A New Talent Pipeline for Restorers | Restoration Edge Ep. 3

In Restoration Edge Ep. 3, Phil Rosebrook sits down with Rod Cruce (Trifecta Growth Institute) to spotlight Rod’s new Hire a Veteran program – built to help restoration companies solve hiring and onboarding challenges with high-character, high-accountability talent.

Rod explains how his new program connects you, the restorer, with transitioning service members, provides industry-specific training upfront (restoration + project management + customer experience), then places them into your company for an on-the-job internship so you can evaluate fit before extending an offer. If you want a smarter, more structured way to add leadership-ready people to your team, this episode is for you.

Inside 1-Tom-Plumber: Brand, Franchising & Better Leads | Restoration Edge Ep. 2


In Episode 2 of Restoration Edge, Phillip Rosebrook sits down with Alvaro Leal of 1-Tom-Plumber to unpack how a plumbing division/franchise model can become a powerful lead engine for restoration—helping you get the first call on water losses and strengthen long-term commercial relationships. They cover the brand’s origin story, the standout pink-plunger marketing, franchise support (training, coaching, and national partnerships), and why this model can help restorers differentiate as claims soften and competition rises.
