Painting Happiness! Love Where Your Work! 

For Painters with Jerks for Bosses!

You work hard every day, right? Bring the projects in on budget? Make the customers happy? You show up on time and leave the job site clean as a pin... never even taking a sick day!

But do you ever get one word of gratitude? A moment of praise? A note saying thank you?

Probably not. You may have worked for YEARS feeling underappreciated... decades even.

Do you feel like your boss just doesn’t care about you? Maybe even doesn’t like you?

If you do, you’re not alone. The painting industry is full of employers who look down at their employees – bosses who don’t know that the PAINTERS are the company’s greatest resource.

This is a problem because if you work in an environment like this for too long, it can be discouraging. It can take the FUN out of work. It can even hurt your home life and make you feel like you’ve picked the wrong career path... even if you LOVE TO PAINT and you are really good at it.

Guess what? It doesn’t have to be that way.

At our company, we are DIFFERENT. We VALUE our painters and we let them KNOW IT.

We recognize achievement in our weekly meetings, highlight our painters in our monthly newsletters, and brag on them in social media.

When clients say good things about our painters, we CELEBRATE it.

Yes, we have very high standards and expect a great deal from our painters – but the expectations are written in black and white and there is NEVER any “playing favorites.” We are all on the same TEAM and we pull together to achieve our company goals.

Listen, painting a project right is a lot of work, but it can and should be FUN and REWARDING. If you want to finally be on a POSITIVE and ORGANIZED team of ELITE painters, I’d like to invite you to learn more about our unique painting company.
