Journeyman Gear | How a Lineman Turned Jobsite Ideas into a Business | Jared Greenlee | 188

In this episode, I sit down with Jared Greenlee a second-generation IBEW journeyman lineman, storm hand, and the founder of Journeyman Gear. Jared shares his story of growing up in the trade, committing two decades to storm response, and ultimately turning his jobsite experience into a fast-growing tool brand.

We cover everything from the mindsets that separate apprentices from journeymen, to the process of moving from idea to product launch, to how Journeyman Gear tools are improving safety and efficiency on real jobsites. Jared also offers candid advice for tradespeople who want to start something of their own whether it’s a tool, a service, or a business.

If you’re a lineman, in the trades, or curious about how innovation comes straight from the field, this conversation will inspire you.
