This episode features Eric and Rachel Rivera, owners of Artistic Flooring and Tile. This was such a fun interview! We knew Rachel but had just met Eric, so this was us getting to know him. Eric and Rachel as a couple are similar to us, in that one is very extroverted and the other is more introverted, so they balance each other really well.
Eric shares his journey of starting as a teenager in the flooring and tile business in his uncle's family business.
The importance of learning through hands-on experience, committing to high-quality artistry, and putting customer experience above all else, are key takeaways from his entrepreneurial journey.
Rachel speaks about her role in handling the business and accounting side, and the instrumental part she plays in the company's success. They both highlight the importance of not rushing into deals and respecting boundaries in a family business.
There are a lot of nuggets in here about customer centric business and how to think about the work you do. Soak in the hard-won wisdom this couple is sharing.
