- What is it about the moving industry, and TWO MEN AND A TRUCK specifically, that motivated you to go “all-in” and buy in as franchise owners after serving the brands as company employees?
- You both became business owners fairly early in life. How did you adopt an entrepreneurial mindset at such a young age?  How were you able to overcome early challenges and achieve the success you have?
- Why have you chosen to expand to the specific markets you have? Â What makes Atlanta, the Triangle, Baltimore and Washington DC excellent opportunities as a TWO MEN AND A TRUCK franchisee? Â Describe a couple of the complementary relationships you’ve made with other local businesses (retirement communities, real estate groups, etc.) that are critical to your success as community movers.
- How do you balance having a business partnership and marriage and not letting one relationship affect the other? Â What are some of the sacrifices you have made in your marriage to become a successful professional husband and wife team?
- Talk to us about what makes TWO MEN AND A TRUCK unique. Â Why is giving back so important to you two and the company as a whole? Â Take us through a few of the ways you support the communities that make you great.
- What advice would you give other entrepreneurs who are entering a business experience similar to what you have went through – a young, married couple who is starting a business and looking to grow with it and become successful?
