What Two Days at
Accelerate LIVE! Can Do for You

Just One Hidden Profit Opportunity Could Replace MONTHS of Hard Work

The fastest way to grow your profits isn’t throwing time and money at things that might work. It’s implementing proven strategies that already work for home improvement businesses just like yours.

Since 2016, we’ve helped thousands of home improvement business owners and leaders carve a clear path to more success, wealth, and freedom. This is the industry’s #1 event for contractors to network, learn from the experts, and find the resources they need.

One idea from the stage. One conversation over lunch. It only takes ONE golden nugget to pay for your ticket 10X over.

"You're with the best in the industry - the best of the best. You get to network and grow. And there's phenomenal content. You're going to be able to take a few nuggets home to your business that you're going to be able to immediately use and become more profitable."
Tim Brown, Jr.
Owner of RGS Exteriors
“I went to my first Accelerate in 2018, when we were doing maybe $2 million a year. Today, we’re at $16.7 million. 90% of what I’ve done to get here came from Accelerate — either things I heard at the event or from people I met through it. If you’re not overwhelmed when you go, you’re probably not paying attention.”

TO: Home improvement business owner

FROM: Brian Kaskavalciyan

Dear Home Improvement Business Owner,

Building a successful home improvement company takes vision, persistence, and a willingness to make big decisions.

You’ve put in the work. You’ve built a team, earned a reputation, and created a business worth being proud of.

But you can appreciate how far you’ve come and still see the potential for more.

  • More market share.
  • Stronger margins.
  • A leadership team that takes greater ownership.

More freedom to choose where you spend your time.

That’s why I’m inviting you to join me this February at Accelerate LIVE! 2027: Back to the Future.

Our theme is about taking what has always driven great businesses—and making it work even better for where you’re headed.

Because the opportunities are changing fast. New technology. New ways to reach homeowners. New expectations from customers. More sophisticated competition.

The question is: Which opportunities deserve your attention, and how do you turn them into lasting results?

Your next stage of growth will come from knowing what to add, what to sharpen, and how to get more from the business you’ve already built.

Think about what that could mean for your company.

  • Turning more of your marketing investment into profitable jobs.
  • Helping a strong sales team perform more consistently.
  • Equipping your leaders to make better decisions and take more off your plate.
  • Keeping more of every dollar you earn—even as you grow.

When you’re already doing millions in revenue, those improvements can have a substantial impact on your profit, your company’s value, and your life.

At Accelerate LIVE! 2027, we’ll explore what’s working, where the opportunities are, and how to put proven principles and fresh thinking to work in your business.

You’ll have the space to step back from daily demands, challenge your assumptions, and get clear on what your next level of success looks like—and what it will take to get there.

Because once you’ve proven you can build a successful company, you get to ask a bigger question:

What do you want that success to make possible?

A larger business? A more valuable asset? Greater wealth? The freedom to step away with confidence?

Whatever comes next for you, I invite you to join me this February to build on what you’ve accomplished and set your sights on what’s possible.

Let’s get back to what works—and use it to fuel your future.

Brian Kaskavalciyan
Host of The Wealthy Contractor Podcast

John Kolbaska portrait

"When I attended my first Accelerate, we were doing maybe $800,000 and if there was a net profit, it was less than 5%. I heard all of these smart, wealthy contractors on stage, and I was just in awe. I took everything I learned, I went back and within 30 days, I implemented it. And we’ve doubled our business each year. Three years later, we surpassed $5 million dollars in revenue with a 20% net profit."

John Kolbaska

Owner of Windows & Doors by The Men with Tools

“This is my third year coming to Accelerate. There’s so much industry knowledge here that you just cannot get anywhere else that I’ve found. Our business has roughly tripled the last three years, and every single year I learn something new because we have different needs each year. It’s unbelievable how open some of these people are. You have an opportunity to talk to folks that have been doing this for 30, 40 years, and they give you their cell phone number. How can you beat that? How can you put a price on that? Getting that kind of advice from somebody, it’s just incredible. Take the time out, take a little break to re-strategize and move forward.”

Andrew Plowman

Owner of Plowman Kitchen and Bath

Step Away From the Grind.
Your Future Looks Better From Here.

Think you can’t afford to be away from your business? We get it. You’ve got jobs in progress, employees who need answers, and customers who expect you to pick up.

But look at what’s making it so hard to leave. If work slows down the minute you’re unavailable, how much longer do you want the business to run that way?

The systems and leaders that let a company run without you are the very things you never get time to work on, because you’re too busy keeping everything moving. Two days away is how you finally see what needs to change.

So we made sure those two days are worth it. Accelerate LIVE! isn’t just “another industry event” inside an Econo Lodge with bologna sandwiches for lunch.

Instead, you and your team get a first-class experience in sunny West Palm Beach, Florida, with plenty of room to clear your head, get out of the day-to-day, and think about where you want your business to go next.

Hilton | West Palm Beach, FL
Feb. 9-10, 2026 (with optional Bonus Day Feb. 11)

Everything’s going down at the Hilton West Palm Beach, a tropical downtown property with a resort-style pool, restaurants, and easy access to everything Palm Beach has to offer. And for a (very) limited time, ticket holders get discounted room rates.

Seats and rooms are limited, and Accelerate LIVE! has sold out every single year. Make arrangements now, lock in our exclusive room rate, and start building a business that gives you the freedom to do it again. (And while you’re at it, book a few extra days for some off-site team building or well-earned time with the family!)

Your 2027 Speaker Lineup

When you come to Accelerate LIVE!, you’re not just getting “advice.” You’re getting battle-tested wisdom from business legends. Our presenters are real-world operators who’ve been in your shoes and overcome your challenges. They’ve built, scaled, and in some cases, sold their own home improvement businesses.

Hear what they tried. Ask what went wrong. Find out what finally worked, and how to apply it in your company. No theories. No opinions. No assumptions. And definitely no Bulls##t.

Bonus Day Add-On

Pay For Performance: How Healthy Businesses Structure a Variable Compensation Model

What gets measured improves. What doesn’t get measured gets worse. Spend the day with Brian Gottlieb and learn what daily targets matter inside your business, and how to weave those targets into a performance-based compensation plan. When people get paid for hitting numbers that matter, the entire company wins.

Healthy businesses stay in control know who owns which numbers, and every team member knows their targets BEFORE the month starts. When everyone has a daily number to speak to, they know what success looks like.

In this hands-on Bonus Day Workshop, you’ll learn how to:
  1. Map who owns which KPIs in every department
  2. Build a KPI org chart that makes accountability clear
  3. Structure variable comp that rewards the results you need
  4. Plug pay for performance into every area of the business, from sales to production to the office
 
This is where Back to the Future gets practical. You’ll go back to the fundamentals of how healthy businesses pay their people, then build a comp model that drives where your company goes next.
 
You’ll leave with a KPI org chart and a variable comp framework your team can put to work when you get home.
 
Winning the year starts by winning the day. KPIs that drive compensation is the model that gets you there.
Kirk Koskiniemi, owner of IBEX Roof

"I went to my first Accelerate in 2018, when we were doing maybe $2 million a year. Today, we’re at $16.7 million. 90% of what I’ve done to get to this point came from things I heard at Accelerate. I came from swinging a hammer and didn’t realize there’s a way to do this industry — and 80% of successful companies do the same things the same exact way. Accelerate is a great place to learn how those companies do it. I’ve been going for seven or eight years now and I’m still not able to implement everything I’ve learned. If you’re at $1–3 million and want to grow, you’ll learn all the tools to do it at Accelerate. After that, it’s just up to you how fast you want to do it."

Kirk Koskiniemi

Bring the People Who'll Turn Ideas Into Results​

Think about the changes you want to make when you get home. Who will help put them into practice? Your sales manager may hear something you wouldn’t. Your production leader may recognize a problem you haven’t seen. Your second-in-command may spot the opportunity that helps you finally get something off your plate. When you attend together, you can discuss what applies to your company while it’s fresh. What should we change? Who owns it? What happens first? Start building agreement in the room, and bring that momentum home.

Yes! If your team isn’t aligned and prepared to face today’s challenging economy, you’re already fighting an uphill battle. That’s why we’ve structured this event around educating your ENTIRE leadership team. Bring your GM, marketing director, sales manager, production head, and anyone else who plays a crucial role in your business to ensure everyone is on the same page and ready to hit the ground running when you return.
