Let's talk about something bigger than just learning a trade...

We're building a TRIBE.

Because here's what most schools won't tell you:

The hardest part of starting your career isn't learning the skills...

It's feeling like you're doing it alone.

That's why American Craftsman Academy is different:

When you join us, you're not just getting training...
You're getting a COMMUNITY.

Here's what that really means:

• 24/7 access to our private network of pros
• Real-time problem-solving support
• Project showcases & feedback
• Business growth discussions
• Exclusive job opportunities
• Ongoing mentorship
• Industry updates & trends
• Material supplier connections

Think of it like having an entire TEAM in your corner.

Got a tricky installation question at 8PM?
Post it. Get answers from pros who've been there.

Landing your first big commercial bid?
Get feedback from craftsmen who close these deals daily.

Want to show off that perfect shower niche?
Share it with people who actually appreciate that level of detail.

Because at ACA, graduation isn't goodbye.
It's just the beginning.

You're not just learning a trade.
You're joining a brotherhood of craftsmen.

(And this crew? We take care of our own.)

Let's talk about something most trade schools won't tell you...

The SECRET WEAPON of successful contractors:
Commercial maintenance contracts 💰

See those showers? 👆

Places like this need regular:
• Maintenance
• Repairs
• Updates
• Replacements

And here's the beautiful part...

While residential jobs come and go...

Commercial clients sign YEARLY CONTRACTS.

Translation: Steady, predictable income.

Think about it:
• A hotel chain with 5 properties
• A university with 10 dorm buildings
• A gym franchise with 20 locations

That's not just ONE job...
That's RECURRING REVENUE.

At American Craftsman Academy, we don't just teach you installation...

We show you how to:
• Bid commercial projects
• Navigate corporate contracts
• Build relationships with facility managers
• Structure maintenance agreements

Because one solid commercial client can be worth 20 residential jobs.

And the best part?

Most contractors are too scared to go after these deals.

(Their loss = your gain.)

Let me nerd out for a second about BATHROOMS...

Because what's happening in this industry is absolutely wild.

The bathroom remodeling market isn't just "growing"...

It's EXPLODING.

We're talking about a market expected to hit $238 BILLION by 2028.

That's "billion" with a "this is actually incredible" amount of zeros.

And here's why this matters...

Right now, 31% of American homeowners are planning bathroom renovations in the next 12 months.

(Source: Houzz's 2024 report, if you're wondering.)

Think about that.

1 out of every 3 houses you drive past...

Needs someone who knows what they're doing with a shower install.

But here's where it gets interesting...

The average bathroom remodel costs between $10,000 - $25,000.

And the luxury end?

Those high-end clients are investing $50,000+ in their dream bathrooms.

(People really love their heated toilet seats. 🤷‍♂️)

But here's the challenge...

There aren't enough qualified contractors to handle the demand.

Most homeowners wait 3-6 MONTHS just to start their projects.

Why?

Because 77% of contractors say they can't find skilled workers.

Let that sink in...

• Massive demand
• Substantial budgets
• Not enough skilled people
• Eager homeowners

If this was a math equation...

The answer would be "GET INTO THE BATHROOM BUSINESS."

That's why at American Craftsman Academy...

We focus heavily on shower installations.

Because we know this market isn't slowing down.

(Unless people suddenly stop needing bathrooms. Which... unlikely.)

We teach you everything you need to know from tear out to completion.

The EXACT skills you need to grab your piece of this $238B opportunity.

No complex theory.
No outdated methods.
Just proven systems that WORK.

Because while bathrooms might be the most overlooked room in the house...

They're pure gold for skilled craftsmen.

Want in?

P.S. Fun fact: The average person spends 416 days of their life in the bathroom.

That's why people will ALWAYS invest in a good one.

Why We Started ACA – Our Mission

We didn’t just start a school.

We started a movement.

ACA was built by people who love the trades, respect the craft, and know the power of hands-on skills. We’ve seen what’s possible when people learn a trade and take control of their future.

And we believe in building careers, not just jobs.

You ever been proud of something you built with your own hands?

Like REALLY proud?

Not the kind of pride you get from making a PowerPoint presentation...

Or organizing files in a folder.

I'm talking about standing back...

Looking at something REAL you created...

And thinking "Holy s**t... I DID that."

That's what the trades are all about.

Because while everyone else is stuck in digital land...

Playing email tag and having meetings about meetings...

Tradesmen are out there CREATING.

Building stuff that matters.

Think about it:

That shower you used this morning?

Someone BUILT that.

The roof over your head?

Someone put that together.

The tiles under your feet?

Someone laid those down.

One by one.

With their own hands.

At the end of the day...

No matter how "digital" the world gets...

People still need REAL things.

Real homes.
Real bathrooms.
Real kitchens.
Real buildings.

You can't download a shower.

You can't "right click + save" a new floor.

And you definitely can't ChatGPT your way into fixing a leaky roof.

That's why at American Craftsman Academy...

We teach REAL skills.

Not just theory.

Not just "concepts."

But actual, hands-on craftsmanship.

The kind of skills that let you:

• Create something from nothing
• See the direct results of your work
• Build stuff that lasts
• Help people in a tangible way

And yeah, you might get a little dirt under your fingernails...

But there's something deeply satisfying about that.

About knowing you're not just pushing pixels...

Or moving numbers from one spreadsheet to another.

You're making a REAL difference.

In the REAL world.

With REAL results you can see and touch.

That's what craftsmanship is about.

And if that speaks to you...

If you're tired of living in the virtual world...

And want to create something REAL...

Then check out American Craftsman Academy.

Because we don't just teach trades.

We create craftsmen.

Meet Kathy – The Business Brain

👩‍💼 Meet Kathy—she’s the glue that holds ACA together.

While Scott, Trevor, and Justin teach the trades, Kathy teaches something just as important: how to turn skills into a business.

With 20+ years in business, accounting, and HR, she helps our students understand how to price their work, manage clients, and actually make money.

Because let’s be real—being great at your craft isn’t enough. You have to know how to run a business.

Meet Justin – From Zero to Skilled

Two years ago, Justin didn’t know a thing about construction.

He had never held a trowel. Never installed a shower. Never framed a wall.

But he was willing to learn. He started working with Scott and Trevor, and now? He’s a skilled tradesman who knows how to get the job done right.

That’s the power of hands-on training.

If you’re thinking about switching careers, join our waitlist for our first class. You don’t need experience—just the drive to learn.

We have just begun building out our social media presence.

The team at ACA has over 20 years of experience in the construction industry and we are looking forward to teaching others how to start and build a business for themselves and their family.

There is a shortage around the United States of tradesmen and we are hoping to help change that.

Meet Trevor – From Military to Mastery

From the field to the job site.

Trevor honorably served in the military and is still active with the Missouri National Guard. When he came home, he wasn’t sure what was next. Then, he started working with his dad, Scott.

What began as a way to earn a paycheck turned into a passion. He learned the trade, built his skills, and now he’s not just a craftsman—he’s an instructor, helping others find their path just like he did.

🛠 The trades change lives. If you know a veteran who’d be great in construction, tag them in the comments!

Meet Scott – The Master Craftsman

🛠 It all started with Scott.

With over 20 years of experience as a general contractor and master craftsman, Scott has remodeled homes, businesses, and has a reputation for excellence. But one thing always bothered him:

Too many people don’t know where to start.

Young guys want to learn the trades but don’t know where to go. Business owners struggle to train their crews. The industry is desperate for skilled workers.

That’s why Scott co-founded American Craftsman Academy—to train the next generation of craftsmen and help them build careers they can be proud of.
