From Basements to Broadcasts: How Randy Goldbaum Is Reshaping Homes—And Inspiring Entrepreneurs—Across Long Island

Share

Nestled in the heart of Dix Hills, where leafy streets are lined with family homes and entrepreneurial dreams, lives a man whose vision extends from below ground to far beyond the airwaves. Meet Randy Goldbaum—a husband, father, business owner, podcast host, and community connector—who’s proving every day that success isn’t just about profit margins, but about purpose, passion, and people.

With more than two decades as a Long Island homeowner and entrepreneur, Goldbaum has made a name for himself as the founder of MyEgress.com, a growing powerhouse in egress window installations and basement walkouts. But his story doesn’t stop at construction sites and job orders—it dives deeper into family, community, and the remarkable network of entrepreneurs he’s building around him.


Building Something Greater Than Business

Randy’s story begins where most great entrepreneurial tales do—with a spark. After spending years in real estate and home improvement, he recognized a specific need in the market that many ignored: safe, code-compliant, and aesthetically pleasing egress window installations for finished basements.

“Basements were becoming more than just storage spaces,” Randy explains. “Families were creating living areas, bedrooms, home offices—and they needed light, ventilation, and emergency exits. That’s where we came in.”

MyEgress.com was born. And over the years, it has become a trusted name across Long Island for not only egress solutions but now full exterior envelope services, including roofing, siding, stucco, waterproofing, and more.

Yet what truly distinguishes MyEgress.com from traditional contractors isn’t just quality craftsmanship or top-tier service—it’s Randy’s people-first philosophy. “We’re not just fixing homes—we’re helping families feel safe and improving their living space. Every project we take on is a chance to build trust, comfort, and a better future.”


Dix Hills Roots, Island-Wide Reach

Randy isn’t just a business owner on Long Island—he’s a lifelong community member. For over 20 years, he and his wife Cristina, married now for 26 years, have called Dix Hills their home. Together, they’ve raised three daughters—ages 23, 21, and 16—each of whom, in Randy’s words, are “his everything.” And then there’s Cayman, the family dog rescued from, fittingly, the Cayman Islands.

“We’re deeply rooted here,” Randy says. “Our friends are here. Our clients are here. Our community is here. That’s why I believe in doing business the right way—because this is our home too.”

That local loyalty runs through every aspect of his company. Whether working with individual homeowners, property managers, HOAs, or contractors, Randy ensures every job is handled with care, compliance, and consistency.

And as MyEgress.com expands into more exterior services, he’s just getting started.


The Power of Networking: Adding Value Over Asking for It

One of Randy’s core values—perhaps his superpower—is his genuine love for networking.

“I walk into every networking event thinking, ‘How can I add value to this person’s business?’” he shares. “It’s never about what I can get. It’s about what I can give.”

This mindset has propelled him into rooms with fellow entrepreneurs, contractors, marketers, coaches, and creatives—many of whom have become collaborators, clients, or close friends. He doesn’t just network—he connects, uplifts, and empowers.

His approach to networking isn’t transactional; it’s transformational.

“It’s fascinating to me to hear someone’s business journey—how they started, what drives them, the obstacles they’ve overcome. We all have a story.”


B2B With Randy & Craig: Telling Those Stories Loud and Clear

In 2023, that passion for storytelling and community-building found a new home: the airwaves.

Randy teamed up with cohost Craig Rappaport to launch “B2B with Randy & Craig”, a podcast and radio show that dives into the lives and lessons of local entrepreneurs. What started as an idea has blossomed into a platform inspiring business owners from Montauk to Manhattan.

Broadcast on Spotify, WBAB Radio, and B2BwithRandyAndCraig.com, the show features a wide range of guests—from startup founders to legacy business leaders—each sharing their raw, real journey.

“We want to strip away the polish,” Randy says. “Business isn’t always neat and shiny. It’s messy. It’s emotional. It’s full of ups and downs. But that’s what makes it inspiring.”

Listeners tune in not just for entertainment, but for empowerment.

The episodes offer tangible tips, heartfelt stories, and—true to Randy’s mission—a reminder that you’re not alone on your entrepreneurial journey. The message is simple yet powerful: “Believe in yourself. Go for it.”


Goldbaum Performance Partners: Helping Others Rise

What happens when a connector like Randy starts receiving requests from fellow entrepreneurs for help with workflows, lead management, and marketing?

He creates a company to do just that.

Enter Goldbaum Performance Partners, a soon-to-launch consulting arm of Randy’s growing business portfolio. Through this platform, Randy will offer small business owners personalized strategies, tech tools, and growth systems to streamline operations and scale their impact.

“I’m amazed by how many local businesses have reached out since we launched the podcast,” Randy says. “They’ve heard how we think, how we care, and how we solve problems. Helping them get clarity, implement tools, and start seeing results—it’s incredibly fulfilling.”

The new website and service line will offer consulting, coaching, CRM guidance, automation tools, and more. The goal? Help others win.

“When their business grows, our community grows. That’s how we all win.”


Entrepreneur. Family Man. Community Builder.

If you ask Randy what he’s most proud of, it’s not the projects or the podcast or the next business he’s launching—it’s his family.

“I’ve been married 26 years to the most beautiful, supportive woman, Cristina. We’ve raised three incredible daughters. That’s my foundation. That’s my why.”

That same care extends to every part of his life—from how he trains his teams, to how he mentors other entrepreneurs, to how he speaks to listeners on air.

At his core, Randy Goldbaum isn’t just building egress windows or launching podcasts—he’s building pathways for people to rise, to feel supported, to grow.


Looking Ahead: More Growth, More Stories, More Impact

With MyEgress.com expanding into exterior envelope services, Goldbaum Performance Partners launching soon, and the B2B podcast gaining momentum, Randy’s vision continues to evolve.

“My mission is to help people—whether that’s helping homeowners feel safer and prouder of their homes, or helping a business owner see the path forward, or inspiring someone to believe in their own voice. That’s what it’s all about.”

Randy’s journey is proof that business done with integrity, purpose, and heart can transform not just bottom lines—but entire communities.


Where to Find Randy:


Bottom Line…

In a world often obsessed with hustle and headlines, Randy Goldbaum reminds us that success is more than what you do—it’s how you do it, who you uplift along the way, and how many lives you improve by showing up authentically, consistently, and compassionately.

Long Island is lucky to have builders like Randy—of homes, of networks, of platforms, and most importantly, of people.
