I am a first-generation immigrant from Mexico. I started working in a one-bay garage, painting bumpers, while putting myself through college and taking care of my two elderly, sick parents—one with lung cancer and the other who suffered a stroke that left her paralyzed in a wheelchair for six years. Through this challenging journey, I built an autobody shop business that repairs vehicles for the general public and collaborates with insurance companies to ensure we provide the most efficient and safe repairs possible for our clients. Additionally, we restore and modify classic cars for other customers.
We operate in one of the poorest counties in our state and currently employ eight people, with hopes of expanding our team in the future. I am seeking angel investors not for profit, but to positively impact the community around me. I believe that a strong work ethic can help uplift my local community, leaving a lasting positive impact on the world.
I have invested my entire life savings into this business, which is already profitable and strong. However, as a first-generation immigrant, I have struggled to obtain financing. I am working tirelessly to build my credit profile and seeking someone who can help me raise capital to elevate my business, my team, and our community to the next level.
Our team consists of eight individuals with a combined total of over 50 years of experience. All our team members are minorities who share a strong work ethic and hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards. We produce vehicles and results that embody the "Road Art" name. When you visit our shop, you can feel the spark and energy; our facility exudes a unique personality compared to the average body shop.
However, our efforts extend beyond just presentation. We are proud members of the Carolina Auto Body Association, which is dedicated to providing safe and efficient repairs and maintaining high standards. We constantly invest in training and developing our team because continuous self-improvement is extremely important to us in all aspects of life.
We have achieved national and international recognition by building classic cars that have traveled as far as Canada, Australia, and the southeastern United States.
While building the business, we have taken a smart approach and structured ourselves legally to minimize risks and provide asset protection for our business and investors; I can elaborate on this if needed. Our goal is not only to build a sustainable business but also one that will stand the test of time and positively impact our local community for decades and generations to come. I look forward to talking with you soon.
