درباره این پادکست 🔗
Captain’s Quarters First Class isn’t just another outdoor lighting podcast, it’s my arena.
I’m Captain Matt, and here we dive into the big three that move money: landscape lighting, permanent lighting, and Christmas lights. But it’s bigger than fixtures and installs. This show is about leading your crew, building a brand that lasts, and sharpening the mindset to keep you from sinking when the pressure hits.
