When did you feel like you made it?

[RosePiercing]

I know we are all in various fields, and have varying levels of years open and budgets. But we all started someplace. When did you get that feeling you had made it? Like this is no longer an idea in your head, but like a full fledged entity you built. Did you utilize marketing to help achieve that or used a more organic approach?

Great question @RosePiercing .  I think the time for me was once I got in with a local dealership. Having  know  few people who work there, I offered to spray a Bedliner free of charge so they could see for themselves.  Since then they have been  solid part of my success, leading to working with 4 more dealerships in the area.

When I went full fledge by myself, I knew I could always make it, if I put my mind and heart into it. But there’s days it just be stressful taking to much in with little time. Finding good/trustworthy employee’s. 5 months in since I left another shop, and it’s one of the best feeling ever. I should have left sooner and stop being afraid to tackle things alone. I now acquired many repeated customers and gain atleast 11-13 new customers a day.
