re: Business owners, tell the tale of your early days and when you found success
Posted by jmachimself on 2/23/26 at 1:25 pm to BottomlandBrew
That is a powerful story about the grit it takes to keep a family legacy alive. Transitioning from a service-based model to manufacturing is a massive leap, especially when you're under the pressure of a personal guarantee and payroll deadlines.
It sounds like having that specific banker in your corner and the support from EO were the real turning points. Most people don't realize that family business "gravity" is real—it's tough to step in when you didn't plan to, but clearly, your perspective from your previous career helped you navigate that transition.

Doubts are part of the process. I remember thinking I’d made a huge mistake for the first six months, but once that first major contract landed, everything clicked. Wouldn't change a thing.

Sent you an email, pal. Would be happy to help. Have been a BIMVDC coordinator for 6 years, have been managing a team for 2 of those six and still chugging.
