I quit my first stable JOB about 36 years ago at 20 years old to start my first company. When life kicked me in the face 8 years later, I suddenly found myself moving to Iowa, I sold that business. During that time, a friend and I bought a near closing business around Nashville TN. We brought it from failing to a nice profitable sale 6 years later. It is still operational under the same name, (different owners), today. Then the move to Iowa to chase family in 1996. I grabbed one of those things....called a "JOB" for a few years until I could get the feel for this new land I found myself in. As soon as I could, I quit that stable job to buy into a Ford dealership in northern Iowa. I spent 6 years as managing partner of this little Ford dealership. I then started from scratch a car and boat sales place in our town of 3400 people. A few years later we opened another location about 40 miles away. I sold them off years ago. They are both rolling strong today. Upon sale of those two businesses, I was contacted by one of my old Ford dealer competitors to do some consulting and training for their sales and management team. Next thing you know I'm consulting and training in that store and another couple dealerships in Iowa as well. For many years I had been consumed by growing myself to be a more effective leader and trainer. I haven't written any books on the subject, but I bet I've trained more folks in sales, management and processes than a few of those professionals. Next, in 2015, my wife and I started a new boat rental/sales business in Clear Lake, Iowa. Little did we know, Lucky Wife Wine Slushies would be born out of that boat shop 7 years later. When the boat rental business got really good, converted to seasonal. By mid 2018, anticipating being at our southern Indiana home for the next fall and winter we started our first business in the mobile food sales arena. As with every new venture, lots to learn. Jim
