Our path to success was far from a walk in the park. My business partner and I had a non-compete which prevented us to start our business near our Simpsonville, SC homes. Our hands were forced to pick a location where we could work within the constraints of our previous employment agreements. This meant working in the Atlanta area away from our families for over 18 months. It was a tough call to make but we felt the rewards outweighed the initial hardships. So off we went to conquer Atlanta (and the world). The office furniture was purchased for $200 from my church back in Upstate South Carolina. We built everything from the ground up using a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to manage our progress on all our projects. We were rookies but we were thorough with our research and follow-through. In our initial year, we put a very small revenue number on the books but it was at least a number. Today we are a multi-million-dollar business competing with billion-dollar staffing companies. We are not a rag to riches story yet, but all I can say is we have the secret sauce and message resonating with our customers and they are slowly getting how and why we are different than all other staffing companies.

My career in the staffing industry began in 2000 when I joined the largest IT staffing firm in the nation after a career in retail. Thirteen very successful years in the industry took me to Greensboro, NC, Silicon Valley, CA, Raleigh, NC, Virginia Beach, VA, and Greenville, SC.
