Episode Overview

AI adoption in the trades might feel like a gamble to some, but for Jen Alonso, Director of Sales & Marketing at Lowry Overhead Doors, it was a no-brainer. In this episode, Jen breaks down how her medium-sized garage door company overcame the five biggest barriers to AI adoption, from staffing fears to integration headaches, unlocking massive efficiency gains. Jen shares real-world stories of deploying “Dory,” their AI virtual agent, utilizing Atlas for instant marketing campaigns, and automating dispatch to increase revenue per tech by 12% in a single month. Whether you're skeptical about AI or just don't know where to start, Jen’s pragmatic approach provides a clear roadmap for using AI to eliminate mundane tasks, reclaim time, and grow your team's careers.
