The Pillars of Outdoor Lighting
Here's why these pillars are so powerful:
Success in the outdoor lighting business isn't about chasing one trend—it's about dominating across multiple pillars that feed into each other, creating a cycle of growth and cross-selling opportunities.
Landscape Lighting:
My personal favorite. It’s the art of transforming outdoor spaces with beautiful lighting design. While leads can be harder to generate, the payoff is immense for those who are skilled at creating breathtaking, high-end results. If you’re good at this, it might be the only pillar you need.
Holiday Lighting:
Fast leads, great money, but the intense time commitment during peak seasons can be a challenge. In my own lighting business, we stopped at $200k in holiday lighting per year because it required seasonal workers and a huge energy spike. But even with those challenges, it’s a powerful revenue stream.
Permanent Lighting:
Admittedly, I wasn’t always sold on this—especially outside of the holiday season—but many in our community are crushing it with permanent lighting, both in terms of sales and as a gateway to landing landscape lighting projects. Whether you like the look or not, it’s an incredible business opportunity.
The beauty of these three pillars is that they cross-sell to each other. A holiday lighting client can become a landscape lighting client, who then might need permanent lighting at their vacation home. If you’re not offering multiple pillars, you could be leaving money on the table.
But you don’t have to take our word for it!
Check out all these successful landscape lighting design professionals we’ve worked with who started in other outdoor industries:
“I Learn Everything from YouTube. I don’t think Light It Up Expo is for Me.”
That’s true. YouTube is great! You can learn everything from how to yodel to how to fix your refrigerator to installing lights.
But with Light It Up Expo, you get more than just the knowledge of how to install some lights.
You get to network with some of the top lighting professionals in the country.
You get to experience learning from someone who has built several multi-million dollar businesses and get on the fast track to success!
In the end of winter, you get to experience the warmer weather in Orlando, Florida (that alone should be incentive enough to come!). You can even bring the whole family and turn this experience into a family vacation you’ll never forget.... the hotel is right by Universal Studios after all!
Plus, you get to learn marketing, sales, and pricing strategies to make you competitive in your market!
And you get to learn what materials to use and which to avoid from professionals who use these materials day in and day out.
These five benefits alone are priceless (just like YouTube)!
When you use YouTube, figuring out all these little details takes years. With Light It Up Expo, you learn all the secrets in just two days!
That means that when you leave Orlando, you will be ready to implement everything you’ve learned and start scaling your business immediately!
Just imagine a world where you have enough work all year long that you don’t have to lay anyone off. Imagine a time when you can see the leaves turning gold and red and brown and not worry about how you’re going to pay all your expenses for the next six months.
When you join Light It Up Expo, this is the priceless information you get.
