Kevin Johnson interviews Sam Hackman, a welder and business owner, about his journey in the welding industry. Sam shares his early experiences, challenges transitioning to full-time business, and goals for the future. They discuss field vs. shop work, pricing, scheduling, and the importance of quality and customer service. Sam talks about managing employees, maintaining satisfaction, and justifying equipment purchases like his favorite tool—the press brake. He reflects on risks he wishes he’d taken, balancing work and family, delegating responsibilities, and lessons from tough jobs. The conversation highlights the value of clear communication, creating a positive work environment, and learning from business mistakes and podcasts.
