Your Reliable Roadside Companion

I grew up in the car business and sold cars for 17 years starting at age 19. I learned I loved meeting new people and helping customers. It was always a pleasure to help them get their new vehicles, but I was still lacking that feeling of truly helping someone. “They” always say do what you love, and it is not even considered working. Well, the question remained how can I help large quantities of people, make a dollar and feel good about the service I provide yet be meaningful? Finally, it occurred to me, I should start a roadside assistance business to be more direct, giving actual help to people in the community and surrounding areas. Since then, I found that missing piece in my life and finally knew what it was I wanted to do for a career and finally had a sense of direction to where I wanted to go in life. Since I began this new chapter and challenge it has been one of the most gratifying things I have been able to do so far. Assisting customers who are in true need of help is very fulfilling! Let's face it, changing a tire isn't a glamourous corporate position and it never will be, but having the ability to drop what I am doing at that moment helps keep me grounded, selfless, and humble. Which in turn it is as if I am hoping to spread an untold message to others, "this is how we all should be to our fellow man". Imagine working hard 2 hours before the sun came up through the entire day until about 9pm that evening. You drove 327 miles that day, changed 5 flat tires, delivered fuel to one customer, and helped two other customers get their vehicles unlocked. Your phone has now stopped ringing. The thought of a warm shower and clean clothes sound amazing right about now. You make a decision to get a warm shower, put on fresh clothes, and then relax on the sofa. You are 30 minutes into a good movie, then your phone rings, someone needs your service, and they are an hour away on the dark interstate, it is raining, and 37 degrees outside. It is time to make a real decision, do you go help these people that are stranded in a dangerous spot or do you let them sit and let the next guy help them at his leisure? Although you have put the time and work in for the day, you are clean, and you deserve downtime as well, right? Not me, rest assured I am coming to help anytime day or night. If I am awake and physically able, I will be there. That is what separates me and my company Roadside-Pro apart from the other guys that claim to be 24/7. I do not have a set sleep schedule; I just take naps when I can during the day or night in between calls to make myself available for you and your loved ones out here stranded each day. That smile and sigh of relief from the customer upon arrival makes it worthwhile. Then their sincere gratitude they have expressed once I have completed the job and the customer is safe to travel to work or home, tells me what I am giving to my customers is meaningful. Those few moments of getting to know a stranger and a little about them is always nice especially when we part ways and it's almost as if I made a friend. Maybe I did or maybe I didn't, but what I do know is they got the best experience from me that I could provide at that time!
