Stockton, CA--Jason Kerby owner of J&J Services has expanded his business to include the purchasing, installation and maintenance of whole house generators. Californians have been experiencing all kinds of weather. High winds, lightning, drenching rains, heavy snow and wildfires are causing power outages like never before and it’s important now more than ever to keep you and your families safe and comfortable during these turbulent times!
Jason had been receiving many requests for generator installations and so J&J Services has been trained and certified thru Generac, built on their reputation of introducing the first home standby generators to the marketplace in 1977.
Jason strategically went about targeting areas in Northern California where J&J Services, located in Stockton, covers. Jason was hearing from clients, his neighbors, friends and family about their concerns regarding power outages, rolling blackouts, closing grids and what to do considering the frequency of these events.
Jason’s company has been installing mostly residential whole house generators but also some small businesses installations as well. Installation of emergency generators in one’s residence or business is best left to a professional and that is where J&J Services comes in.
While standby generators are costly, a whole house generator not only keeps you and your family safe and comfortable but will also improve the value of your home for one thing. Having a whole house generator will last for a good 20-30 years with proper installation and ongoing maintenance.
J&J Services offers payment plans which some customers prefer. In addition, many home insurer companies will offer you a discount as well on your homeowners’ premium.
Jason’s goal as the owner of J&J Services has always been to help homeowners with their heating, air conditioning, electrical and plumbing needs thus improving their all around quality of living. J&J Services treats every customer like family and every home and or business as if it were their own.
Jason, his wife and family are active community members living in the San Joaquin Valley, Sacramento, Galt and Stockton area. Jason continues his work as a member of the Executive Board of the local Chamber of Commerce.

Business Owners Shift Their Thinking By Tapping Into The REAL Secret To Success: It Starts In Their Mind!!!
New Jersey-based Business FuDog Group Is Running A Special Event at the Bell Works Holmdel Complex For Business Owners On March 18-19 To Share The Secrets To Think Bigger And Create More Personal Growth
(New Jersey, March 6, 2023) There’s a saying that goes, “The thinking that got you here won’t get you where you want to go.” That’s a mindset limitation that almost everyone faces at some point in their life. And one New Jersey company is holding an in-person event to help people break out of this programming and limiting beliefs to create massive growth in every area of life.
Change The Channel
FuDog Group, a New Jersey-based company, is bringing together a powerful group of speakers who will teach business owners that professional success starts with personal growth.
Change The Channel gives business owners a proprietary set of tools to look inward, create massive shifts, and “change the channel” to create more personal growth.
This event solves a serious problem that holds many business owners back…
The Big Problem That Entrepreneurs Face
HOLMDEL, NJ--Mike Agugliaro is the co-founder of FuDog Group, along with his wife Jennifer and their business partner Aaron Hoos. Mike started and grew a well-known New Jersey-based home services company, Gold Medal Service, which he grew and exited in 2017. Later, he did the built and exited another New Jersey company, CEO Warrior, a training company for the home service industry.
Through the growth and successful exits of both these companies, Mike discovered that business owners were often focused on business growth but not on person growth, yet all growth starts from within. So, he and his wife partnered with another growth-minded business expert to start FuDog Group, which helps business owners and entrepreneurs look inward and create massive personal growth.
Mike, Jennifer, and Aaron have found that when someone shifts their personal growth, they create massive success in health, personal wealth, and relationships, and there’s a trickle-down effect to create massive professional success as well.
The Starting Point Of Success And Struggle
FuDog Group teaches that the starting point of all personal and professional success (or struggle) begins with something called “programming”. Everyone has programming from as far back as childhood, on every aspect of life, from health to personal wealth to relationships and so much more.
This programming shapes the beliefs, actions, and results that everyone experiences. Programming creates limiting beliefs that someone will grow to a certain point and then simply stop growing… because “the thinking that got them this far won’t let them get any farther”.
FuDog Group helps business owners shatter those personal limiting beliefs and discover new tools and strategies to shift their personal growth. They offer trainings, events, and a membership to help people.
The Event That “Changes The Channel” To Change Lives
Change The Channel brings together a number of powerful speakers who will share their journey of success and growth, and give business owners the tools to do the same.
Kevin Harrington, the star of the hit TV show Shark Tank, is the keynote speaker who will share his own journey of personal growth and how he grew up as the child of a business owner and became a TV star, business expert, and a pioneer in the “As Seen On TV” brand.
Mike Michalowicz is the author of Profit First, and other books, and he will be sharing his own journey – including the ups and downs that come with success, struggle, and more success. He’s an engaging and inspiring speaker with powerful personal growth insight.
Mark Evans, a real estate investor from Ohio, will share how he went from living in trailer park to creating multiple 7- and 8-figure businesses, and the mental shifts in his personal growth that he had to make in order to grow.
Mike Agugliaro will explain the mindset shifts that he made in his life to go from struggle to success – in his own personal life, and the result it had in his businesses.
Jennifer Agugliaro, co-founder of FuDog Group, will share her powerful perspective of personal growth as a wife, mother, entrepreneur, and more.
Aaron Hoos, co-founder of FuDog Group and author of numerous books, reveals the steps required to rapidly executed on a personal vision — the same process that helped to skyrocket his own personal and professional growth.
Michael Agugliaro, son of Mike and Jennifer, has an inspiring story of becoming a martial artist black belt and martial arts business owner as well as his own personal growth, especially in the areas of mindset and accountability.
The Steps To Growth
Change The Channel is a 2-day event that FuDog Group has run a number of times. This popular event draws a crowd of business owners who know that any growth starts inside.

HILLSDALE, NJ--Jim Hodges, the owner of JD HODGES Plumbing & Mechanical, participated in a logo and design company’s “naming contest” to rename and rebrand his business. For over 24 years, Jim worked with his father in the family business but eventually chose to go at it on his own. During the contest, after hearing Jim’s story about actually working with his father from the time he was five years old, through middle and high school, weekends and summers, colleagues told Jim he was like a "Gladiator", in the arena for the first time by himself. At first, Jim thought it was kind of cool but then he realized the new logo and brand was actually spot on!
The name "JD HODGES Plumbing & Mechanical" involved not just plumbing and heating, drain cleaning, and air conditioning, but "Mechanical" was for the specialty projects Jim did working in commercial and industrial environments.
The more Jim understood how much more his business encompassed, he became more excited to change the business’ name to Gladiator Services! Jim is delighted with the rebranding of his business’ name as he is receiving a great response from family, friends and patrons.
Jim’s background is unique. Aside from spending time as a young child alongside his dad in the family’s business, Jim studied architecture at Roger Williams University. Jim’s academic work and his strong appreciation for architecture has proven to be invaluable when it comes to aesthetics, planning, renovation and rerouting.
Jim’s family has been in the small community of Westwood, New Jersey for over 100 years. His great grandfather and other family members were electricians and masons. Jim’s father’s plumbing and heating business is one that is highly respected in the tight knit community. Jim and his brother are of course licensed plumbers and his brother still working alongside their father. Jim acquired his licensing (Plumbing, HVAC, Backflow, and Fire Sprinkler) by taking trade school course work and long hours training in the field.
Gladiator Services has evolved into so much more than HVAC having to do with the rapid technological advances in the field. Today the business covers indoor air quality systems, water filtration systems, reverse osmosis water systems, duct cleaning, fire safety systems and much more. Still, plumbing, heating and air conditioning stem from this place.
There’s more to Jim’s story as well. Jim just recently retired as a New York firefighter after 20 years of service. Jim started his training in early 2001 and finished on September 10, 2001. Next day, 9/11 and Jim was immediately called to task. Once again, Jim’s family history plays a part in his commitment to community as well as business. His grandfather and his father were both volunteer firefighters in Westwood. Jim became a volunteer firefighter while still in high school. He is still very much involved in not only his own community, but throughout other areas of the country doing training and teaching for new recruits.
Spring is around the corner and Gladiator Services will be extremely busy with assisting new and returning client projects, home maintenance, efficient system management, upgrades and more. Jim’s younger children have taken an interest in the family business assisting in the office and helping on calls. Jim takes great pride in his family and friends who are all part of the business in one way or another. His goal is to provide comfortable and safe experiences in the HVAC and expanded field for everyone in the community.
With Jim’s architectural background, his plan is to expand to kitchen and bathroom design and remodels. Gladiator Services is well connected with affiliate trustworthy businesses such as contractors, painters, masons, etc..
Be sure to check out Gladiator Services' comprehensive website which lists and details all of their offers. You can also call at 201-419-6090 and they are located at 157B Patterson Street, Hillsdale, NJ 07642.
Gladiator Services proudly has received an A+ Rating from the BBB and serves surrounding areas of Bergen County, NJ.
