Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Marked by entrepreneurial leadership and a commitment to helping others, Mr. Hermes has carved a prominent career in the home improvement industry. As the founder and chief executive officer of USA Showers in Phoenix, Arizona, he has demonstrated exceptional vision since launching the company in 2023. Spearheading the development of a scalable one-day custom tub and shower replacement model, he has enabled significant growth and high customer satisfaction throughout Phoenix and in additional markets. Since starting from scratch, USA Showers has grown into a team comprising more than 40 local employees in just over two years.
A central focus of Mr. Hermes' professional journey has been his dedication to helping individuals build meaningful careers rather than simply holding jobs. He devotes significant effort to studying personal growth and leadership, developing processes and procedures that foster both his own development and that of his team. Taking particular pride in the lessons learned from his failures, he uses them as motivation to become an effective leader who supports his team in achieving their goals and aspirations.
Prior to founding USA Showers, Mr. Hermes served as a sales representative at Mastercraft Exteriors Roofing from 2012 to 2016, during which he honed his skills in client relations and sales strategy within the roofing sector. Additionally, he operated under his own name through Chris Hermes Inc. from 2008 to 2024, engaging in multiple fields such as real estate investment, personal development coaching and business expansion.
Earlier in his career, Mr. Hermes spent two years as the co-owner of New Age Cash Flow, where he taught aspiring investors and business owners how to expand and stabilize their monthly income. He also held regional sales manager positions at Fortune High Tech from 2005 to 2007 and at American Communications Network (ACN) from 2004 to 2006, developing his expertise in sales management, product promotion and team leadership.
Before venturing onto his diverse professional path, Mr. Hermes earned an associate degree in diesel mechanics from Fox Valley Technical College in 2000. This technical foundation provided him with problem-solving skills and a strong work ethic that have contributed significantly to his later successes. Along with his education, he is immensely grateful to mentors such as Brian Gottlieb and Bob Ristow for inspiring him to continually improve himself, as well as personal development books that have shaped his approach to leadership.
Beyond his business achievements, Mr. Hermes is dedicated to community service through initiatives such as USA Showers Cares and Showers for Heroes, which provide free safety showers for military veterans in need. He has partnered with community programs and veterans' initiatives like Baths for the Brave, further strengthening the philanthropic impact of his company. Also an influential thought leader and public speaker in the industry, he presented to more than 400 home improvement entrepreneurs on production disciplines at the Accelerate Live event in 2024 and addressed over 150 entrepreneurs on creating a culture of accountability with Dave Yoho and Associates in 2023.
Mr. Hermes' success and dedication to exemplary service have seen USA Showers recognized with several accolades, including being named Best Place to Work in Phoenix in 2024 and as a Business Rate Top Performer in Google Reviews. The company was also ranked number 269 out of the top 500 home improvement enterprises by Qualified Remodeler.
Looking toward the future, Mr. Hermes aims to expand USA Showers into additional states and markets while establishing a legacy as a pioneer in supporting veterans through home improvement initiatives. He seeks not only to inspire his team but also to help other companies adopt similar philanthropic models, helping as many people in need as possible along the way. Furthermore, he plans to invest in real estate and teach others how to become real estate investors so they can achieve financial independence.
Outside of his professional pursuits, Mr. Hermes is a proud father of two children and a self-development advocate who enjoys playing golf and studying the psychology of selling.
