Are you just starting out in your business? Do yourself a favor and listen to this week's episode, a candid interview with Jesse Gooch, owner of Painters Plus, with locations in North Tonawanda, NY in WNY and Florida. Click HERE to go to their website. They take the "PAIN" out of painting!

Did you know? Besides having a wildly successful painting company right here in WNY, Jesse and his company also:

Does charitable work called Project Hope where he paints the exterior of someone's house, normally a Disabled Veteran, that is selected, entirely for FREE?

Is the Founder, Main Sponsor, and runs the Thursday on the Water FREE (YES, I said FREE) Concert Series at Gratwick Park in North Tonawanda that is still running for the next three (3 GREAT shows as far as this podcaster is concerned, including Grunge Night!) weeks at the airing of this episode (through the end of August). Check out the remaining lineup HERE

Listen to hear how Jesse went from an errand boy in a painting company to the success he has today -- what worked, what didn't work, the successes, the pitfalls.

If you don't know Jesse Gooch, you should. This is one of my favorite interviews and one of the easier ones. All I had to do is say, are you ready? and Mr. Gooch gives one great story after another before the question is finished AND the tips are priceless. They can really help a younger company bridge the gap going from startup to success.
