  • Funding Usage

    I’m in need of funding to be able to afford more employees. I have too many jobslined up for this spring and summer and not enough hands. I need employees. I also need more tools to get jobs done faster and more efficiently and safely. I have tried loans and it is impossible to get one.

  • Business Plan

    Within the next five years I would like at least 50 employees that I can pay a liveable wage to. I see my company having an office downtown Rockford where people can jump on a computer with my sales team and create the project of their dreams. My goal is to build a large Rockford born business to not only bring more business to Rockford but I’d like to expand to surround areas as well. I feel investors should invest in me and my company because I’m young and very business driven. I grew up on 17th avenue and 10th street, Back when Rockford was a large part in the manufacturing business. I would like to see Rockford get back to that. I know what it’s like to struggle. I started in a low income community. As of today, I have successfully moved out of that bracket due to my work ethics and dedication to bettering myself. I plan on doing the same with my company. I have worked for other people and have tried giving them my ideas to better their business but my voice is never heard. Now I have my own business I work hard to keep those values I voiced when I was an employee, or consumer, or that leader. I would say, In the next 5 years I would like to start doing some charity work to help clean up the residential housing in Rockford. Whether it be, i have enough revenue to purchase a foreclosure, fix it and donate it to a family in need. Or help a non for profit with a home remodel. Whatever the case may be I want my company to be a part of Rockfords current stride to growth and renovation. The opportunity here is still endless. Every home owner I come across says they have a hard time finding contractors. It’s because we are all so busy. The demand for home improvement is high. Gov. Pritzker announced there is a home improvement loan opportunity that is forgivable. I plan to take advantage of that opportunity as well. There are many reasons why me and my business should be invested in. We stick out because we care about the community and our valued customers. I strive for customer satisfaction and quality, affordable work. I am a veteran of this beautiful country. I am a patriot of this beautiful country. I believe we as Americans need more business and manufacturing here in America. Helping provide that opportunity of life liberty and pursuit of happiness is ultimately a business owner’s responsibility. I would like to be able to be a part of rehabilitation of our community and employ people for a decent livable wage. Rockford needs business like mine. That will teach young kids how to work with their hands and make something beautiful with just their brain. If you invest in me and my company, you’re investing in an opportunity for others as well. Thank you so much for taking the time to hear what I have to say and giving me an opportunity to this application!
