Milestone: The Strangest Conduit

When Mark and Gus first met, they had no way of knowing they would one day be the owners of the largest home service company in Dallas–Fort Worth! From the onset of their first meeting, these two men knew they were part of something unique, something bigger, something they hope can be an example for others.

While they shared every business owner’s dream of success, it wasn’t the money that was most important. At first, it was the challenge of overcoming normal start-up hardships alongside real-life crises, learning the ropes, and finding creative solutions to challenges they never saw coming.

By keeping their eyes on what they considered most important—faith, family, and excellence—Mark and Gus embraced each challenge with love, loyalty to the vision, and compassion for the greater DFW community they serve. The values they put in place and their impact on the team, customers, and community are the heart and soul of Milestone.

Discover the elements they put in place to create a company that works not just for its customers but for its team members and its community. Within these pages, you will learn how Gus and Mark turned each roadblock they met into an extraordinary opportunity to grow personally and professionally, while remaining true to their core values and beliefs.

In 2004 Mark Robison and Gus Antos cofounded Milestone Electric, a home service company that has since grown to over five hundred team members. Milestone has been awarded countless honors, including SMU Business School of Cox “Top 100” and Dallas Morning News Best Places to Work, but the organization is most distinguished for the six hundred thousand (and growing) customers served across the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. Mark lives in Rockwall, Texas, with his wife Sabrina. They are proud parents to three children, Justin, Danielle, and Amanda, whose wonderful spouses are Kambria, Austin, and Gus! Yes, Gus married Mark’s oldest daughter, Amanda, in 2007. Gus and Amanda live in Heath, Texas, and are proud parents to sons Dean and Alexander.
