Today\u2019s story shows the power of when a quality-minded construction professional decides to go all in and start a new commercial roofing company<\/a>. There may be risks involved, but the huge upside potential that comes with building a highly profitable business and carving out one\u2019s destiny is hard to cast aside.<\/p>\n

In this week\u2019s contractor feature, we take a look at new Conklin contractor Jonathan Wanner and how he\u2019s decided to become more successful. Hailing from the great state of Michigan, Jonathan has stepped forward and decided to jumpstart his own commercial roofing company. He\u2019s now in the throes of its development, but he\u2019s excited about the future and what it holds, and about how he has a huge support network behind him.<\/p>\n

Humble Beginnings: Installing Windows<\/h3>\n

\"JonathanWhen asked about what drives his roofing company, Jonathan says \u201cquality service\u201d is the core value that\u2019s responsible. It\u2019s a fundamental that he\u2019s displayed over the years, as he\u2019s risen from a construction crew member in the family business to a forward-thinking company owner.<\/p>\n

Jonathan\u2019s story begins in his teenage years, when he became an active part of his family\u2019s construction operations. He had grown up in construction for his whole life up to that point, but that\u2019s when things started taking off.<\/p>\n

His family\u2019s company specializes in vinyl windows, but Jonathan recalls his involvement in all manner of construction work. As a member of the crew, he was charged with discarding old building products and other duties related to project disposal. Over an approximately two-to-three-year spread, he rose in the ranks from menial laborer to full-time contractor, and he assumed more responsibilities in the construction crew\u2019s day-to-day operations. Over time, he learned the ins-and-outs of all that was involved, as well as the full value of quality workmanship. That, in turn, laid the seeds for what would later become an enterprising desire to break into commercial roofing.<\/p>\n

Once he became a full-time contractor, bit-by-bit Jonathan became a more integral part of daily service-providing. He honed his craft, and by the time he was 21 years of age, Jonathan had been appointed the main installer. As he steadily grew to be an invaluable part of his family\u2019s legacy, he started developing a sense of entrepreneurial ambition and independence. Over time, he became keen on striking out on his own.<\/p>\n

Opportunities Arise: Commercial Roofing with Conklin<\/h3>\n

A few years into his career as an expert installer, Jonathan\u2019s desire for running his own business had gained further traction. It was around this time when he heard about Conklin roofing<\/a> from friends and was intrigued by the unique business opportunity it presented. He was told stories about roofing contractors who had encountered great success with the product line, tied together with Conklin\u2019s standout business model. The stories of success piqued his interest, and he started doing research on just how viable Conklin\u2019s business opportunity really was.<\/p>\n

Timely Intervention: Family Member’s Experience<\/h3>\n

Jonathan knew there wasn\u2019t really anyone in his area who was doing what Conklin offered, and it seemed to be the best opportunity to carve out a profitable niche business. The attractiveness of the business opportunity was expounded by his desire to establish a high standard of living for his wife and children. That\u2019s when he contacted Conklin for more details about getting involved and what he should expect. One Master Contractor contact and hours of extensive Internet research later, Jonathan was more convinced of the legitimacy of Conklin\u2019s business opportunity. However, he wasn\u2019t quite ready to take the full leap.<\/p>\n

A timely \u2018intervention\u2019 came in the form of a visit with a distant family member. This family member used Conklin roofing products himself, and with his personal testimony about their value to both contractors and customers, Jonathan was further emboldened. A chance encounter with a nationwide network of commercial roofing specialists who use Conklin products, though, was what sealed the deal. Jonathan contacted Choice Roof Contractor Group<\/a> for more information, was impressed by the answers given and level of support the network provides, and then decided to journey to Conklin roof systems training.<\/p>\n

Gearing up for the Big Time: Taking Action<\/h3>\n

\"superiorAt Conklin\u2019s training seminar, Jonathan received hands-on experience with Conklin\u2019s high-performance roofing systems, which built on top of his honed expertise as a construction professional. When asked about the quality of Conklin\u2019s factory training program<\/a>, Jonathan remarks on how he was impressed by how thorough and informative it was. One thing that stood out was how comprehensive Conklin\u2019s roofing system instructors were in their coaching\u2014at many points, Jonathan would have a question that wasn\u2019t directly related to what was being taught, but the instructor would answer it a few moments later without him having to ask it.<\/p>\n

Now, as a business owner, Jonathan has named his new roofing venture \u201cSuperior State Roofing\u201d. Aside from the obvious nod to the well-known Great Lake to the north, he says it\u2019s a subtle reflection of what customers can expect from his commercial roofing services\u2014quality treatment in every facet of what\u2019s done.<\/p>\n

Even though the pressure of starting and running one\u2019s own business is tremendous, Jonathan says he\u2019s glad he made the leap. With Conklin roofing products, the training he\u2019s received, and the contractor support he has at his disposal, he\u2019s more than ready to set his entrepreneurial ambitions aflame\u2014and give a better life to his family as a result.<\/p>\n
