What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Tommy’s podcast has been a staple in my weekly routine ever since we met last winter in Marco Island. He’s locked in every week—bringing on sharp, like-minded guests and delivering valuable, easy-to-digest conversations. The only downside? It’s a firehose of inspiration and innovative ideas that’ll leave your brain spinning with ways to level up.

roachroofing · Oct 2025

The Home Service Expert is one of the few podcasts that actually moves the needle. Tommy gets straight to what matters: people, systems, and accountability. Every episode hits with something you can use right away. He said it best, he doesn’t rely on instinct, he relies on data, and that mindset shows in everything he does. When you track the right KPIs, you stop guessing and start leading with clarity. That’s how you scale, that’s how you build freedom, and that’s why this show stands out. “He who has the best data wins” isn’t a slogan, it’s the standard. This podcast raises the bar for every serious home service operator out there. Five stars all day

Felipe@liferei · Oct 2025

The information on this podcast is second to none. I try and take one thing from every episode that I try to implement into my daily dealings in our growing electrical company. I didn’t learn about you in time for freedom 25 but will definitely be at freedom 26.

Conman6 · Oct 2025

I really enjoy listening to Tommy and his passion for the home service industry. I first discovered him about three years ago through his book Home Service Millionaire on Amazon, and I immediately connected with his success story and the value he provides. His insights and energy continue to inspire me as I grow my own handyman business. Thank you Tommy for your help and your efforts for home service industry in commons.

Jeanchick · Aug 2025

Not only does Tommy have great advice, he’s extremely authentic with his approach. I love this podcast!
