The Coffee Shops Partner with Roofing Talent America for People Make Roofing Podcast

Podcast celebrates people in the roofing industry who make it great.

RoofersCoffeeShop®, the award-winning website where the industry meets for technology, information and everyday business, has partnered with Roofing Talent America (formerly McCormack Partners) to launch People Make Roofing podcast, a podcast celebrating the unique and dynamic people who are part of the roofing industry. Focusing on the leaders of the industry, the podcast shares why the next generation should seriously consider roofing as a winning career that offers opportunities not often understood. 

“The roofing industry is the perfect place for young people coming directly out of high school and vocational schools.  Roofing offers a career that is very lucrative and fulfilling,” stated RoofersCoffeeShop President Heidi J. Ellsworth. "We are proud to partner with Roofing Talent America to highlight the roofing industry’s success stories and help the next generation find the value and opportunities in a roofing career."

The podcast is an easy-to-consume format following The Coffee Shops’ model of Read Listen Watch® (RLW). It is shared on RoofersCoffeeShop.com and the RoofersCoffeeShop YouTube channel. It is also highlighted with excerpts and information on CEO of Roofing Talent America Luke McCormack’s LinkedIn profile allowing the industry to not only listen or watch but also engage with comments and insights.  

“We launched People Make Roofing in the UK in 2020. It has seen great success but now we are very happy to partner with RoofersCoffeeShop, launching it with all new episodes and a new co-host, Heidi J. Ellsworth,” said McCormack.  “We know the power of these stories and how they inspire the next generation and their parents. It makes us proud to bring this podcast to the U.S.”

“People Make Roofing is not just a movement; it’s a commitment to inspire, mentor and drive positive, transformative and necessary change within the roofing industry,” concluded McCormack.
