Steve, what is your background?

Grew up as a child in the Midwest and moved down to Texas my Sophomore year and have been living here ever since! As they say, wasn’t born here, but got here as fast as I could! My work experience was retail clothing for 10 years at Abercrombie and Fitch as a District Manager and was introduced to the Energy Brokerage industry about 14 years ago. I ran one of the largest brokerage firms in Texas for 7.5 years building over 13 offices in 3 states averaging over 350 million annual MW of power annually before leaving and starting my shop Third Coast Energy Consultants LLC. We have helped build and consult many energy exchange platforms along with building a solar company. We now do all things electricity from handling and brokering Commodities, residential and commercial solar and now bringing a new patented product to the Texas market that no one else has!!!

Why should a customer choose 3rd Coast Energy?

We pride ourselves on transparency, customer service, and quality-driven by a passion to serve by using technology and innovation!

What was it that made you want to start this business?

I wanted to deliver a better buying experience where the customer had better options, better data, transparency, and was viewed as a partner not a customer. This drove me to tirelessly creating the “3rdCoast Experience”

What are the advantages that come with owning your business?

The biggest advantages of owning your own business would have to be creating your own culture, treating people how they want to be treated, and the flexibility of creating your schedule to work.

Where do you see your business in the following years? 

The landscape of the energy markets is ever-changing and it’s our responsibility to change before we have to! We continue to make advancements in innovation and technologies that allow us to deliver better, faster, and data-driven info to make better decisions for our customers along with providing state of the art technologies that are constantly changing! Renewables are going to continue to grow along with battery technology, but the biggest play will be in the efficiency world.

What are the biggest issues for running this business?

At the end of the day it all falls on you, what I mean by that is normally the company structure is a pyramid and it trickles down, here we flip that pyramid upside down and give till it hurts….. and then give some more!!

How is your team structured?

We run a 1099 model that gives the ultimate freedom for people to sell and manage life with a phenomenal payout structure that rewards the hard work and freedom to live the life they have always envisioned!! Imagine running a franchise with all the support you could need.
