The Precision Painting Story
Painting a Dream and Overcoming Adversity
As a young boy growing up in Klamath Falls, I had a dream to be an entrepreneur. Challenges and problem
solving always interested me. I knew the challenges presented to me with owning a business would provide me
with a sense of purpose. At the age of seven, I began shoveling snow in the winter time and raking leaves in
the fall for my fellow neighbors. I earned the work by walking door to door and asking for jobs needing to be
completed. I quickly learned the meaning of hard work.
Pleased with my work, more neighbors were beginning to ask me to complete work for them. The work kept piling up
and I realized there was more work to complete then I could ever perform alone. At this moment, I came up with a
brilliant idea! I would hire friends to help me perform the work. This created opportunities for my friends to earn
money, delighted my neighbors because we performed the jobs they otherwise would have to do and taught me some valuable
management skills. Four people completed four times the work I could have done myself. And if I was sick then the work
still got completed by my friends. By this time, I was managing more than I was working. This is where I learned about
scheduling work, performing quality control, cash flow and basic marketing principles.
My inner drive developed from this small business helped me realize my life goal of solving problems for others and
providing employment opportunities while earning a living in an ethical and responsible manner. A small part of this
goal is reached every day as we paint your home. To us, it is more than painting a house. We help homeowners solve paint
related issues. Providing services that add value to your home or business is our way of thinking. Our main focus is not
how we can earn another job, but rather “how can we help you”?

We may be painting your home, but it is you who is helping
paint my dream.
