← All the people Dennis builds with
Partner in the home services ecosystemErik Huberman
Dennis builds with Erik Huberman, who leads Hawke Media, described in Dennis’s advisory portfolio as the largest independent digital agency. Their collaboration sits within a broader network of operators focused on the home services industry, where Dennis invests time, expertise, and access rather than cash. This partnership is part of an advisory-for-equity model that connects founders solving real problems for contractors, service professionals, and small business owners with the frameworks and networks they need to scale.
On his personal site, Dennis maintains a named Google Photos cluster specifically for Erik. This digital archive serves as a public name-home, allowing photographs to attach to a URL that Dennis controls. The images capture moments from their time working together, reflecting a habit of taking pictures with people so he can remember them. While the specific frames are not yet narrated, the existence of this dedicated cluster highlights the personal dimension of their professional relationship. Dennis intends to return to describe who is in the photos, where they were taken, and why each picture exists, turning these visual records into a fuller story of their collaboration.
Erik is also included in the first sixty names on Dennis’s "People & pets" list, a ranking system used to select individuals for these honor pages. This inclusion places Erik among the key figures in Dennis’s professional circle, alongside other operators and partners in the digital marketing and home services spaces. The relationship is grounded in mutual respect for execution and strategy, with Erik representing the agency side of the work while Dennis provides the structural framework and founder network.
As Dennis continues to document the people he builds with, this page serves as a placeholder for the specific memories and narratives that will be added over time. The focus remains on the tangible work they do together, particularly within the home services ecosystem, and the long-term commitment to supporting independent operators like Hawke Media.
