Life gave me lemons at the end of 2014, I was in a job that I really wasn’t jiving with anymore and I went searching for a little bit of a change. I started a new position doing something in the scope of mechanics but it was very different then what I was used to. Everything was going great, I thought. Then poof before I hit my three month probation I was laid off. I didn’t really know what to do, other than apply for my E.I. benefits and wait.
We had welcomed a new baby boy that year, he just turned one. My wife decided to stay home with my son and had opened her own daycare to contribute to the bills and get my son interacting with other children. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t worried, I hadn’t been laid off while having a family to provide for. So, while we were figuring out what to do my wife suggested starting my own business.
I had done jobs for people here and there, I didn’t really look at it as a business. I liked helping people with their cars, the money was just a bonus. One of my first customers was Rick Wheadon (AM/PM junk), he was so happy with my services he started referring me to people. Then I just kept growing, little by little.
I saw how much people valued a service that allowed them to stay in the comfort of their own homes. My customers were thrilled they didn't need to take time off work to bring their cars to the shop or sit at the dealership for hours waiting for service. That told me I should continue doing what I love and helping people out.
Just like every business I’ve had ups and downs, it takes a while to build a clientele but I’m happy to say I’m entering my 5th year in business ready to serve you.
