Where has Mike been for a while? Well, he’s been busy. Not all of it has been business related, some has been personal drama (we’ll leave that out here), and some of it is the contract work I’ve been doing for the past year and meeting deadlines. I have been working my Amsoil business as time has permitted, but unfortunately haven’t been able to prospect as before, but I have tried to keep up with current accounts and customers, and respond to what new business has found me. What’s great about the Amsoil business is once you have a foundation set, it tends to keep going on it’s own. Granted, it works better when you can be more of an active participant, but it’s nice to know that should something pull your attention away, hopefully next time it’s that month long vacation in the Caribbean or Europe, it will still operate and be profitable.
But as I love the Amsoil business and flexibility, along with some of the other products I have added to my product line, I have gone on yet another new, more mainstream business venture that is related: Bumble Bee Auto Sales! Recently I was approached by a friend and her new business partner with a proposition. He has been in the auto sales industry for many years and operated several successful local auto businesses, while she has a successful business of her own. Together they talked about the idea of combining their experience and starting a new auto sales business and my name came up having helped her in the past with her business as well.
We met for dinner, talked it over, traded some ideas, and started plans moving. With his prior experience within that industry, mine with the automotive aftermarket, Amsoil, and internet marketing, and her skills with pushing her business to the top in Search Engine rankings, we think we have a good chance of jump starting Bumble Bee and growing it into something big and a dealership to contend with both locally, and out on the internet.
Stay tuned as I make more posts on our progress, ideas we have, and of coarse the official announcement that we are open for business. If you are thinking of getting a car in the near future, start thinking about what you want, and I’ll see how we can help out.
