Are you ready to unlock the secrets of scaling a small business from the ground up? Join us on "Small Business Big World" as we sit down with Chris Fortin, the owner of Service Bros. Chris started his entrepreneurial journey during the COVID-19 lockdown while still in high school, initially watering lawns for his father's landscaping business and quickly expanding into odd jobs. He shares how he leveraged word of mouth and local Facebook groups to grow his business. Chris's story is a must-listen for anyone navigating the early stages of business growth.
Chris discusses why transparency and understanding their limits were crucial for maintaining customer satisfaction. We also touch on the dynamics of running a business with a close friend, managing operations remotely while attending college, and their commitment to community support through affordable moving options and partnerships with organizations like Habitat for Humanity.
