Member Spotlight: 10 Essentials with Zach Reece of Colony Roofers
Zach Reese never planned on venturing into roofing, or construction for that matter. However, when the chance arose, he thought, “Why not give it a shot?”
Fortuitously, Zach dives feet-first into every endeavor he undertakes. What began as a journey driven by curiosity and determination evolved into Colony Roofers – a business dedicated to delivering satisfaction to office owners, property managers, and the general contractors they serve.
Curious about Zach’s insights, we inquired about his ten essentials. From must-read books to philosophies worth considering to skills everyone should master, here’s what he shared.
1. An Essential Book to Read
Mastering The Market Cycle: Getting the Odds on Your Side by Howard Marks.
As a business owner, I acknowledge that I cannot influence economic, credit, real estate, or other cycles. Nevertheless, I strongly believe in the importance of comprehending our position within these cycles and shaping business decisions accordingly.

5. A philosophy worth pondering
Adopting a growth mindset, as described in the book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck.
This philosophy is centered around the idea that people who believe they can learn and grow are far more likely to actually do so. The ability to grow and adapt is essential in today's fast-changing world.

9. A valuable lesson to learn
Growth requires putting yourself in uncomfortable positions. In order to live the life you want, you have to be willing to push yourself outside of your comfort zone.
10. A key skill to master
Understanding financial statements. It's hard to do business without understanding whether you're making or losing money and how and why that's happening. You don't have to know how to prepare them, but it is critical to understand what your financial statements are telling you and allow the data to drive business decisions.
