The Expert Profile
Why Vic Sun
Why Vic Sun
Is The Expert
Vic Sun is the Founder and CEO of Channel Automation, Power100's top-rated AI-driven omnichannel automation partner for home improvement companies. With a background spanning mechanical engineering at UCLA, management and strategy at the London School of Economics, and over 15 years of progressively senior roles in home improvement, construction technology, and sales operations, Vic brings an uncommon combination of technical depth and commercial execution to a market that desperately needed both.
Vic founded Channel Automation after seeing the same problem repeat itself across dozens of contractors: leads were coming in, but poor follow-up was letting them die. His solution was an AI-driven omnichannel platform that engages every lead instantly via text and voice, nurtures prospects automatically, scores contact health, and syncs into existing CRMs. The platform has now processed over 1 million leads across 30+ clients, generating over $1 million in gross sales through booked appointments.
Before Channel Automation, Vic served as Vice President of Client Services at Reborn Cabinets, one of the nation's largest home remodeling brands. Earlier in his career he held roles as Chief Innovation Officer at A1 Construction and Designs. His personal philosophy, a Kaizen-driven prevention strategy, drives his belief that continuous improvement in process is what separates companies that scale from those that stall.
