I'm a year and a half into NOT owning a soft wash company anymore! I got the opportunity to sell last March to a competitor, who hired me as a commission salesman for a year during the transition. We had a great year last year and I actually sold more for the new owner than I ever did for myself. Now I'm doing other things (Christmas Lights and I own a guitar repair shop) and only selling washing to friends and family that contact me directly.
I will FOREVER be indebted to the men here in this group who helped me get something going in 2015 when I lost my job and needed a way to support my family. Soft washing taught me to run a business...stuff I'm applying to other stuff I'm doing now...and helped me learn a lot about myself and that I've got entrepreneur skills I didn't even realize. You will be successful in this business if you listen to those who have wisdom, focus on serving customers well, buy just what you need to get the job done, and work your tail off.
Thanks for the email, Art. I miss being with you all. I've got plans to attend the first part of the Huge Convention if anyone will be there. I would love to catch up.

I remember when you were trying to join the forum.I kept on banging you out and you kept on signing back up. I sent you an email asking you what you wanted. You said, I want to learn roof cleaning and I let you in.
