The Go Time Success Group Story

Ben Stark and Chris Hunter are transformational specialists. From working for others to one-man truck operators to employing coworkers to building companies of value to selling them, they transformed themselves and helped others to transform in the process. In Ben’s case he created and launched three separate HVAC businesses. Chris created and sold one HVAC business.

As passionate, giving and faith-based family men, they share a business growth mindset and a personal desire to see their coworkers grow and develop.

One day Ben, who was Chris’s most influential mentor, approached Chris with the idea of giving back. They realized that the pathway to their success was not luck, mysticism or a once-in-a-lifetime shot. It was take-action, repeatable systems, processes and procedures built upon a foundation of important values and servant leadership. They had a deep desire to share their professional training and experience with the industry.

So the lads decided the best way to give back was to write a book and share business practices, systems and methodologies. Busier than a Texas technician on a hot July afternoon, they needed and found writing help in Dave Rothacker.

Dave, a thirty-nine plus year HVAC industry veteran, is also hardwired with a growth mindset, passionate about written communication and shares the identical business beliefs as Ben and Chris.

The Genesis of the Go Time Success Group Transformation…

Over the course of two years, Ben, Chris and Dave chiseled the book out of Ben and Chris’s experiences, relationships and business methods. The result: It’s Go-Time: Ben Stark and Chris Hunter Share Insights & Strategies to Help Your Home-Service Company Succeed!

Ben

Ben Stark has built several successful businesses over the course of his career. In addition to his practical knowledge of electrical and plumbing systems, he became adept at creating easy-to-follow blueprints for business success while also vigilantly acting as an operational and financial steward to improve the bottom line and realize organizational objectives.

Ben’s entry into the HVAC world was largely accidental – early in his career he worked in the maintenance industry. Deciding that he needed to pursue a career that would offer him a better living, he invested in a 6-week course in HVAC training. He went on to complete a community college degree at night while working in the field during the day. After 5 years, he was ready to venture out on his own. His greatest success came when he invested in learning how to become a successful business owner, not just a contractor.

And the Transformation Continues…

The writing adventure drew Ben and Chris closer together. The Go Time Success Group blossomed out of this experience along with a merger of Ben’s training organization Growth and Profit Systems and Chris’s consulting firm. Chuck Morales, a long-time professional technical training instructor with Growth and Profit Systems joined the team.

During this period Chris started working at ServiceTitan. Today he serves as ServiceTitan’s Principal Industry Advisor. His proximity to the industry’s most advanced technology company acts as a beacon of light for the Go Time Success Group and is a natural prompt to keep us on our technology toes.
