Barry Theal sits down with Mike Hoestra

A little background from Mike: "Educationally, I've got a background in banking/finance. I've worked in every facet of retail, supervising warehouses, purchasing, and sales. I'm an artist and have been doing custom airbrush painting for over 20 years. By trade, I am a production painter using HVLP, airless, and air-assist equipment. In my time in production, I had roles as a Core Trainer, Subject Matter Expert, Mentor, and the supervisor of the paint department. I started my detailing business in July 2020 after several rounds of layoffs left me the only person on my team, and I was knowing if I would have a job much longer. I've taken Mike Phillips' 3-day auto detailing course and 2-day marine detailing course in Stuart, Florida. I am also an alumnus of Renny Doyle's 5-Day Detailing Success training and Brett Berry's 5-day Shiny Jets training. In addition, I've been fortunate to learn how to install PPF from Mack Gregory. Business-wise, I have been incredibly fortunate to have won the Torch Award for Ethics from the BBB in the ND and MN region. One of only four businesses that are recognized for this prestigious award."
