Prepared for Cassie Comins

Everything from our call, in one place.

Genuinely enjoyed that conversation, Cassie. A team that's gone from $40M to $270M in two years and still wants to be number one is exactly who we do our best work with. Below is what I promised: a sample of the leads our system surfaces, the thinking behind each one, and the few things we need from you to scope this properly for Monday.

This isn't a proposal. It's the working material between now and Monday.

How it works

Your reps don't cold-call. We hand you booked meetings.

Our team does the business development on your behalf, qualifies every lead to your bar, builds the relationship with the decision-maker, and hands your closers a meeting that's ready to win. You just close.

We surfaceOur system finds the right accounts at the right moment, every day.

We qualifyAgainst your exact criteria, so nothing soft reaches your team.

We bookWe open the door with the decision-maker and set the meeting.

You closeYour reps walk into a warm, qualified conversation.

Your leads

A sample of what comes through, every day.

A simplified snapshot, not a call list for your team. These are the raw leads our reps would qualify and book. All biased to merit-shop / right-to-work, your lane, with the two union ones flagged to qualify first.

Company	Why it's a lead	Decision-maker	Email	Direct mobile
Rosendin Electric	Restructured to chase data-centre/AI growth; says its 5-yr plan hinges on scaling people. Craft is their ceiling, not backlog	John Loukusa VP Field Operations LinkedIn ↗	jloukusa@rosendin.com	(480) 227-7985
Scout Motors	Publicly held the line on 2027 production vs delay reports; equipment going in, no trades reqs posted yet. We're SC-local	Christian Stehr Director Plant Construction LinkedIn ↗	christian.stehr@scoutmotors.com	via Jigna (860) 478-3151
QTS Data Centers	Sells rapid deployment to hyperscalers on pre-committed gigawatt campuses. Every date slips on craft	JD Nelson Sr Director Construction LinkedIn ↗	jd.nelson@qtsdatacenters.com	(817) 371-3460
Faith Technologies	Scaling via modular prefab (Excellerate); new plants in IN, El Paso, Opelika each need 200+ craft to feed the model	Scott Ross Director Workforce Mgmt LinkedIn ↗	scott.ross@faithtechinc.com	(920) 277-7216
MMR Group	Grew 75% to $2.3B into data centres + semiconductors; new $55M facility. Gated by scarce E&I craft	Jerry Sams Director Ops, Mission-Critical LinkedIn ↗	jsams@mmrgrp.com	(916) 257-3032
Vantage qualify: union	Building a 1.4GW Texas campus for OpenAI, first building due H2 2026 (target the TX merit build, not WI)	Rob Gire VP Construction, NA LinkedIn ↗	rgire@vantage-dc.com	(925) 337-3027
Micron qualify: union	2026 HBM sold out; only risk is fabs online on time, and craft is the bottleneck (target the Idaho merit build)	Shawn Siddoway Sr Dir Workforce Dev LinkedIn ↗	sssiddoway@micron.com	(208) 995-5083

The reasons to call

Each lead tied to what they're publicly trying to achieve.

The signal says they're hiring. The angle below ties craft labour to the company's own stated goal and deadline, so it's a real reason to be early, not "you're hiring electricians."

Rosendin Electric

Restructured leadership in 2026 to chase data-centre/AI growth; customers forecasting work 10–20 years out.

Reason to call: they told the market their growth is a people problem before anything else. Lifting that craft ceiling is exactly what we do.

Scout Motors

Publicly defending a 2027 production start in South Carolina against delay reports.

Reason to call: labour is what slips an auto launch in a tight local market, and we're SC-local. We keep 2027 on the table.

QTS Data Centers

Blackstone-backed; pre-selling whole gigawatt buildings to hyperscalers on a rapid-deployment promise.

Reason to call: the one thing that blows a pre-sold delivery date is craft availability. We protect the speed they sell.

Faith Technologies

Industrialising electrical construction via modular prefab; opening new Excellerate plants.

Reason to call: the model still needs craft to build the modules and install them. We feed both, so it isn't capped by headcount.

MMR Group

Grew 75% in a year to $2.3B pivoting into data centres + semiconductors.

Reason to call: holding that growth is an E&I craft-supply problem, the scarcest trade in this space. That's our lane.

Vantage & Micron

A 1.4GW Texas campus for OpenAI (H2 2026); a megafab with 2026 memory already sold out.

Reason to call: both have a hard deadline that only craft can sink. Lead on the merit-shop builds (TX, Idaho), qualify union first.

What we need from you

Four things, so we can scope it properly for Monday.

These are the inputs that let us write a tight scope and a meeting guarantee that actually means something. Drop them below, or upload the docs, whatever's quickest. You can send what you have now and the rest later.

Your name

1. Your contract bases

The kinds of accounts and contracts you run, so the meetings we book are the ones that actually convert for you. Type a summary and/or upload the breakdown.

📎 Upload contract-base docs (optional):

2. The roles you most want booked

So we target the right buyers and qualify to the roles that make you the most money. You mentioned 10 skilled-trades + 5 direct-hire a month.

3. Your fee schedule by role

So we can size the ROI and price the retainer to your economics, and prove the maths works before you commit anything. Type the key ones and/or upload your schedule.

📎 Upload fee schedule (optional):

4. Your qualification criteria (the big one)

This defines a "qualified meeting", so the ones we guarantee are genuinely worth your reps' time. Here's my starting read from our call, tick what's right and tell me what to change.

Mid-to-large employer or contractor, real recurring trades demand (not a two-week order), in your sectors, merit-shop / right-to-work friendly. The person on the call owns or strongly influences the labour decision (ops, plant, project, workforce or HR leader). Open to a staffing partner, not locked to an exclusive MSP / VMS, not a union-hall-only site. A live or imminent need (a build, a ramp, a backlog), not "maybe someday".

Anything else for Monday?

Got it, thank you, Cassie.

That's landed with us. I'll build the proposal around your real numbers and bring it to Monday. If you've more to add, just refresh this page and send again, or drop me a line.

Monday

Then it's a "let's go" conversation, not a "let me find out" one.

I'll get you, me and Anton (our head of sales, who you'll work with day to day) on the 22nd. I'll send the invite in your time, US Eastern, so there's no timezone gymnastics this round. With the four things above in hand, we'll come with the full proposal, the pricing, the meeting guarantee and case studies.

These three are the clients who've cleared us to share their names and numbers. We also work with other firms — including some larger operations — who'd rather stay unnamed, and whose specific figures we don't publish without their sign-off.
