The CCR Licensing Model
You know the job that owns you. The one where you built every system from scratch, answered every phone, chased every check, and still woke up wondering if any of it would survive without you. This model exists because that job should not.
Project · Alpharetta, GA · GAF Master Elite
You started a roofing company because you are good at roofing. Then the company started running you. You became the estimator, the project manager, the bookkeeper, the recruiter, the complaint department, and the person who answers the phone at 9 PM on a Tuesday.
The franchise model says it solves this. It does not. It replaces one set of chains with another: multi-year lock-ins, uncapped royalties that grow as you grow, mandatory vendor contracts, marketing fund surcharges, and exit penalties that punish success.
The Capital City Licensing Model is built on a different premise. You should own a business that runs, not a job that runs you. The brand, the systems, the playbook, the training, the front office, the back office, and the tribe exist so you can focus on what you are actually good at: selling roofs and leading a team.
Build it like it's yours. Because it is.
Every Founding Leader receives the same seven modules. This is not a menu. It is the whole machine. The brand, the systems, the playbook, the university, the front office, the back office, and the tribe.
The Brand
Capital City Roofing identity, market designation, and pre-qualified GAF Master Elite + CertainTeed pathways. A name that means something.
The Operating System
BuilderLync white-labeled CRM + Sierra AI voice agent. Jobs, estimating, automation, payments, books. One workspace.
The Playbook
116+ SOPs across 8 categories. The CCR Production Standard. Every process documented, tested, and refined in live markets.
The University
Capital City University: 14-day intensive cohort + continuous learning library. Manufacturer credentialing. Built for operators.
The Front Office
Phones answered, appointments set, CRM updated, leads triaged. Storm-canvas and reactivation campaigns managed by CCR.
The Back Office
Bookkeeping, accounting, compliance, warranty registration, KPI tracking, monthly P&L. The back of the house runs without you.
The Tribe
The Owners' Council. Every Founding Leader in the network. Shared intelligence, shared wins, and a standard that lifts every market.
The franchise model was built to extract. The licensing model was built to align. When an operator wins, CCR wins. There is no structure that punishes growth.

Not every applicant will be accepted. The best Founding Leaders are not looking for a shortcut. They are looking for a proven standard they can execute.
Four pillars. Every Founding Leader gets the same foundation. The standard is what makes the brand mean something.
Operate under a premium roofing brand built around innovation, integrity, and execution. Stronger positioning, greater market trust, and a credible foundation for growth. The name means something before you knock on the first door.
BuilderLync white-labeled as Capital City Portal. CRM, jobs, estimating, automation, payments, books in one workspace. Sierra AI 24/7 inbound. The CCR Production Standard 15-item checklist on every job. The machine runs.
Capital City University: 14-day intensive cohort plus a continuous learning library. The Operator Playbook covers 116+ SOPs across 8 operating categories. Manufacturer credentialing for GAF Master Elite + CertainTeed Shingle Master Premier.
The Owners' Council. Every Founding Leader in the network shares intelligence, shares wins, and holds each other to the standard. You are not building alone. You are building alongside operators who refuse to cut corners.
Our process evaluates fit, readiness, and market opportunity. Not every applicant will move forward. Terms are discussed in a conversation with Brad. One operator at a time.
90-second tier-readiness diagnostic. 10 questions. No pitch on the back end unless you ask.
CCR ops reviews your audit. Qualified submissions are reviewed within 24 hours. If fit signals are strong, Brad reaches out directly.
A conversation. Brad walks through the live partner portal, BuilderLync, Sierra AI, the Playbook, the Production Standard, your market, every commercial term, and every number. One operator at a time.
If both sides align, finalize territory designation, manufacturer pathway plan, and onboarding cohort date. Sign-on triggers Capital City University start.
Capital City Roofing does not issue contractor licenses.
CCR licenses its brand, systems, training, and operating model to approved Founding Leaders. Each Founding Leader remains responsible for obtaining and maintaining all required contractor licenses, insurance coverage, registrations, and local or state compliance requirements applicable to their market.
The Operator Audit is 90 seconds. Qualified operators hear from Brad directly. Every number, every term, every scenario comes from a conversation. Build it like it's yours. Because it is.
CCR licenses brand, systems, training, and operating model to approved Founding Leaders. Founding Leaders remain responsible for contractor licensing, insurance, and local compliance.
