The 40 Year Startup - Paul Wilke - Masterpiece Floors
Manage episode 423120378 series 2798239
Where do you even begin starting a business? Many of us just end up out on our own after we learn the skillset thinking that’s all we need. It’s not the case and business knowledge is not the first thing we often seek. This is a major problem for small business owners in general but is easily fixable.
Paul Wilke, is the owner of Masterpiece Floors in Corona, CA. With years of experience under his belt as a sand and finish craftsman, as well as, being an owner/operator as well as employing many and subcontracting to many, the grind finally got to him. Paul was fed up with the status quo and went looking for a better way to run his business. This is where he learned he is a 40 year startup. Nothing had really changed in his approach over 40 years but it has in the past few.
Tune in to this week’s episode of the Floor Academy podcast to hear Paul and I discuss what changes he made immediately to distinguish owning a business from owning a job, a few simple tips to make sure your business is taken seriously, and why you can never stop learning.
