How Clear Job Roles Changed My Christmas Lighting Business

Mon, 08 Jun 2026 13:20:42 -0300

If your employees are constantly asking different people the same questions, stepping on each other’s toes, or nobody really seems to know who’s responsible for what — this episode is for you.

In this episode, Cory talks about how adding structure and clear employee titles helped reduce confusion, improve communication, and create more accountability inside his lighting business.

We break down why titles matter, how leadership naturally develops as companies grow, and why trying to keep everybody on the exact same level can actually create more chaos instead of less.

Whether you’re running one crew or multiple teams, this episode will help you build a smoother, more organized business with clearer expectations for everyone involved.
