What does it take to build a pest control company that wins—year after year—without relying on outside investors to do the heavy lifting? According to Chase Goodeill, it starts with the right people around you. This week, the Blue Collar Twins sit down with the owner of Pest Control Consultants to unpack why he and his partners joke they’re the “’96 Bulls”—a tight, competitive crew with complementary strengths, a “whatever it takes” mentality, and a shared mission to turn pest control into a wealth-building vehicle for everyone on the team. 
Chase shares how he learned to sell before he scaled—cold calling businesses, knocking doors, and driving prospects to a yes or no with relentless follow-up. He breaks down the real mechanics of growth: building sales teams, moving into bigger markets, and expanding into multiple branches across states while keeping profitability front and center. 
The conversation dives into partnership structure, acquisitions, retention realities, and why Chase believes you can go fast alone—but to go far, you need a roster that can carry the load. 
🎧 Tune in for a high-energy masterclass on building a team-first pest control platform—where the culture is competitive, the goals are massive, and the partners win together.
