Pest Control and Parenthood: How the Goins Built Grace Into Their Business

Episode Overview

When you're building a business and a family at the same time, every system you put in place matters.

Noelle and Rian Goins, owners of Get Goins Pest Control in Los Angeles, return to FieldRoutes’ Pest in Class podcast with their newest team member, baby Grace!

In this heartfelt conversation, the Goinses share how they baby-proofed their business, from paying down debt and moving into their first home to charging for inspections and adjusting their pricing to keep pace with inflation.

They also talk candidly about the challenges of postpartum and how they redefined success around being present as a family.

Join the new parents—if you watch on YouTube, you’ll get to see baby Grace—with host Amanda Salvatore as they discuss:

[10:39] Why Get Goins started charging for inspections.
[15:17] The most important system: revisiting pricing with confidence.
[25:57] Advice for entrepreneurs expecting their first child.
