Win the Storm to Feature Top Influencers and Million-Dollar CEOs

Win the Storm 2025 Organizer Josey Parks Promises Contractors Will ‘Leave Changed’ with Strategies from Hundred-Million-Dollar Companies

By Jill Bloom, Group Publisher, Roofing Contractor, Tanja Kern, Senior Strategic Content Editor
August 8, 2025

Win the Storm is raising the bar with an unprecedented speaker lineup that combines celebrity influence with proven roofing industry success stories.

Roofing Contractor presents The Best of Success Podcast Show

Win The Storm's 2025 Speaker Reveal

In this exclusive podcast chat, conference owner Josey Parks shares how he assembled the event's speaker lineup. The August 20-22 Dallas event features 30+ specialized panels on scaling strategies.

Conference owner Josey Parks has assembled a roster designed to both inspire and educate contractors with actionable strategies to improve their businesses from the industry's biggest names.

Charlie Kirk Headlines as Keynote Speaker

Leading the charge is Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, and one of America's most recognizable voices and community builders. Parks selected Kirk specifically for his advocacy of blue-collar workers and the trades. 

"He stands for freedom, he stands for the blue-collar worker, and he rallies people to get into the trades," Parks explained in a recent podcast with RC. 

Kirk's message resonates with Parks' own journey—he left college after one semester to build his own company, proving his professor wrong who said he'd "never be successful" without taking college seriously.

The business education component of the conference features heavy hitters who've achieved massive scale. 

Nihal Kaiser from Blue Hammer Roofing will share how he built and sold his company to private equity in just four years, becoming part of a $300 million platform. Kirt Linington, owner of Linear Roofing & General Contractors in Irving, Texas, has approached $400 million in revenue, bringing decades of scaling experience to the stage. Industry veteran Steve Little, CEO and managing partner of National Roofing Partners and president of KPost Roofing & Waterproofing of Parks' mentors and a highly respected figure, rounds out the core speaker lineup.

The conference also features panel discussions with executives from Mad City, a $300+ million company, and Great Day Improvements, a direct-to-consumer provider of home improvement products based outside Cleveland, Ohio, which is projected to reach $1.5 billion this year.

Beyond business metrics, Parks has included a compelling personal story from a close friend who has rescued over 12,000 people from human trafficking and slavery. This speaker emphasizes the conference's "be the change" philosophy that extends beyond profit margins.

The conference extends beyond keynote presentations with over 30 specialized panels covering topics from AI implementation in the field to retail business growth strategies. Parks, who owns an AI company called Think Unlimited that has processed over $10 billion in revenue for home service companies, personally curates all content to ensure contractors receive immediately actionable information.

The August 20-22 Dallas event promises actionable content for immediate business implementation. Registration is available at winthestorm.com.
