In this episode I am joined by Niko from M&V AutoBody & Sales. This is a special episode for me, specifically because I have know this family for two decades now. One of my first deliveries back in my sales days was here at M&V Auto Body in the early 2000's. At that time Niko was just a young boy that I occasionally would see form time to time. Fast forward to present day time, and Niko has some years under his belt now working with his brothers and his father. Niko's father Vince, started the business back in 1983 and now has two of his sons are working full time for the family business.
I love this episode because Niko shares some stories about his own struggles with industry expectations, and some of the confusion that comes from consuming to much information on YouTube. M&V Auto Body has been a long time client of mine and when Niko started working full time, I spent many hours demoing new tools, products, pads, and liquids with them at the shop. This was also the same time where Niko and his father had some disagreements on what tools worked best for polishing fresh paint. Shortly after all of this, I was stepping down from my sales career. So now more than five years have passed and the M&V Auto body team is going to be doing the restoration work for my 2000 Honda Civc, and Niko is even painting cars and has much to share with all of us.
We had so much to talk about on this episode, hope you enjoy!
