Today's Dropping Bombs episode delivers a raw immigrant success story with Dariusz "Derek" Skubisz — a Polish boy who arrived in America at age 7 with nothing — and built a roofing, restoration, and HVAC empire in one of the toughest markets in the country.

Derek exposes why most contractors are leaving 40% on the table, how his sales rep made $300K in eight months, and his mission to call out the fake gurus poisoning the entrepreneur coaching world.

If you're in the trades, in sales, or still waiting for permission to go all in — this one's for you. Your next level starts here.
