In a recent episode of The Good Neighbor Podcast, Tom Stratton, co-owner of Tom and Jerry's Roofing, shared the inspiring story of how he and his college friend Jerry Jerbeck turned their weekend roofing gigs into a successful business over the past 30 years. Tom delved into their unique approach to the roofing industry, which emphasizes honesty and humor over aggressive sales tactics. Their brand, inspired by the famous cartoon duo, not only brings a smile to their community but also sets them apart from large national competitors.
Tom also highlighted their commitment to supporting veterans in Cherokee County through the Mil Vet Community organization. He discussed various themed events and charitable efforts, including taco nights and Memorial Day Road marches, which have made a meaningful impact on local veterans' lives.
Additionally, Tom shared insights into the challenges they face in the roofing industry, such as dealing with insurance claims and advocating for legislative changes to protect customers from predatory practices.
One of the most touching moments of the podcast was Tom's recount of his trip to Normandy for the 80th anniversary of D-Day. His reflections on patriotism and the legacy of World War II added a poignant layer to the episode.
This blend of business wisdom, community involvement, and historical reverence makes for an episode you won't want to miss.
