The leading home service business consultancy has acquired the Plumbing CEO platform along with its founder, expanding its lineup of growth and support resources for the trades.

SEATTLE, Nov. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Business Development Resources (BDR), the business coaching, training and marketing authority for home services industry professionals, announced the acquisition of the Plumbing CEO brand. Nate Agentis, the founder of Plumbing CEO, will join BDR's team of industry-leading coaches and trainers in the newly created role: Director of Plumbing Vertical.

A third-generation plumber, Agentis boasts three decades of experience in the skilled trades, including 15 years of company leadership.
