January 18, 2026 – In a special presentation during Grosso University’s 2026 kickoff meeting, Greg Cummings, CEO of Power100, congratulated the entire team on this remarkable achievement, recognizing their exceptional contribution to advancing sales training excellence across the home improvement sector.

Power100’s Unbiased Ranking System

Power100 stands as the home improvement industry’s premier third-party ranking platform, having researched and analyzed over 3,600 partners serving the nation’s top home improvement companies. Through its comprehensive 5-layer proprietary ranking system, Power100 evaluates strategic partners based on performance metrics, customer satisfaction, innovation, industry impact, and overall value delivery to contractors and home improvement businesses.

“Grosso University has earned this recognition through their unwavering commitment to transforming sales professionals and driving measurable results for home improvement companies nationwide,” said Greg Cummings. “Their innovative approach to sales training, combined with their proven methodology, has set a new standard for what excellence looks like in our industry.”

The Grosso University Journey

Founded by Dominic Caminata, CEO of Grosso University, the organization has experienced remarkable growth since its inception in 2019. During the kickoff meeting, Caminata shared the company’s inspiring journey with his team, highlighting the sacrifices, perseverance, and vision that have propelled the organization to national prominence.

“In 2011, when I first got recognized as salesman of the year at Mad City, I had the opportunity to meet Rick Grosso, and at that point in time I made up my mind that I didn’t just want to learn his system and master his methodology, I wanted to be him,” Caminata shared during the meeting. “This journey has been a long time in the making for me, and I’m very much living proof that you become what you think about when you have a burning desire for something.”

The organization has grown from $858,000 in revenue in 2020 to over $2.1 million in 2021, demonstrating consistent year-over-year growth and establishing itself as a leader in sales training and business development. Led by industry veterans including Dominic Caminata, Matt Burke, COO, and Daniel Coomes, Grosso University has built a reputation for delivering comprehensive sales training programs that enhance profitability and operational efficiency.​

Groundbreaking Innovation: First Spanish Sales Training Platform

One of Grosso University’s most significant achievements in 2025 was the launch of the first Spanish-language sales training platform in the history of the home improvement industry. Led by Wendy Harmeyer, Spanish Development and Training Director, this historic initiative has opened doors for countless Latino sales professionals and entrepreneurs.​

“Last year was a year that we launched a lot of new initiatives. We launched our brand new Spanish sales training platform, the first of its kind in history,” said Dominic Caminata. “That’s been a dream and vision of mine for a long time, and thanks to Wendy Harmeyer, she was able to make that dream a reality.”

Wendy Harmeyer has been breaking barriers by translating Grosso’s proven 11-step sales methodology into Spanish and creating comprehensive training content that respects cultural nuances while delivering world-class sales education. This innovation addresses a critical need in the industry and demonstrates Grosso University’s commitment to inclusivity and expanding access to elite sales training.​

Grosso University Talent Solutions: A New Recruiting Arm

In May 2025, Grosso University launched another game-changing initiative: Grosso University Talent Solutions, the organization’s dedicated recruiting arm. This new division addresses a long-standing challenge in the home improvement industry by helping companies identify, recruit, and develop top sales talent.

“This is something that has been a big goal of ours for a long, long time—to have our own recruiting arm at Grosso University,” explained Dominic Caminata. “If you think about what we do, it’s pretty sensational that we take the sales people that are given to us from these organizations and we turn them into sales superstars. But if we can kind of control the quality of these candidates and have our own means to recruit, it’s definitely been a vision.”

The recruiting initiative has already generated significant revenue in its first year and positions Grosso University as a full-service partner capable of building sales teams from the ground up. Brett Naples, a key member of the Grosso University team, has been instrumental in supporting this new division’s success.

RICH Goals: Culture of Holistic Success

During the 2026 kickoff meeting, the Grosso University team engaged in a collaborative goal-setting exercise centered around “RICH Goals”—Relationship goals, Income goals, Contributions, and Health & Well-being. This framework reflects the organization’s commitment to developing not just successful sales professionals, but well-rounded individuals who prioritize personal growth alongside professional achievement.

“I truly want everybody in 2026 to make optimizing their health and wellness their number one priority,” emphasized Dominic Caminata. “When people think Grosso University, I want them to think warrior. Health is your wealth. Take care of yourself.”

Team members including Dominic Caminata, Wendy Harmeyer, Daniel Coomes, Matt Burke, and Brett Naples shared their personal RICH goals for 2026, fostering a sense of community and accountability. Greg Cummings concluded the exercise by sharing Power100’s own RICH goals with the Grosso University team, reinforcing the partnership between the two organizations.

Vision for 2026 and Beyond

With the #3 Preferred Partner and #1 Sales Organization recognition from Power100, Grosso University is positioned for unprecedented growth in 2026. Dominic Caminata shared an ambitious revenue target of $5 million for 2026, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and collective belief in achieving this goal.

“The only way we can achieve 5 million is if everyone starts walking, talking, and acting as if we already are a $5 million company,” Caminata told his team. “We sell ideas. We sell information. People pay us for communicating with them. This is not my business; it’s our business. We’ve got to build it together one day at a time.”

The organization’s expanding digital presence, including a growing YouTube channel featuring sales training content that reaches professionals nationwide, has attracted attention from major companies and private equity groups seeking partnership opportunities. “We’ve been hearing more and more people Googling home improvement sales training and the YouTube channel popping up, prompting them to get interested in talking to us,” confirmed Matt Burke.
