Young Canadian Entrepreneur Paints His Way To Success

“I did everything in those years, knocking on doors to get jobs, hiring the employees to get them done, managing their schedules, dealing with customer complaints, resolving issues. It was the best hands-on learning you could get. It teaches you what the real world is about. And it allowed me to save enough to get my first truck, trailer and equipment.” - Carmelo Marsala, founder & President,Spray-Net
