Today we’d like to introduce you to Edgar Rivas.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I have always had a dream of becoming a business owner being my own boss. After I finished high school I started working as a graphic designer at a vehicle wrap shop in Dallas, there was where I got the interest in the wrapping process I started to do small jobs on the side nothing too big since I was still working full time, after a little over two years I decided to get a small shop in Hurst TX. Still working full time in Dallas was a struggle. We have to take a step forward to get somewhere I knew where I wanted to be I just needed a little push I quit my full-time job and gave it my all. We moved from our first small shop up to a bigger shop in Haltom City TX, from there we worked hard and started building clientele for a full year, one day I decided to take a big step to moving to a new construction storefront shop. We have made big sacrifices in the past three years from working seven days a week 12-14hrs a day and finally, all of our hard work paid off and will continue. I am now a proud owner of EMD Auto Wraps. We will continue to work hard and grow bigger.
Has it been a smooth road?
It’s never a smooth road, from working 12-14hrs and losing time with your family is never easy. Financially we had ups and downs when we first started but we all know that is something everyone goes through especially when opening a business of your own. My advice jump in, go for it, give it your all I promise you everything pays off within time.
We’d love to hear more about your business.
We specialize in custom-designed, full-color change wraps, we also offer specialty material wraps such as matte, carbon fiber, etc. We help you attract attention and expand your business by creating a custom commercial wrap for your business vehicle. We go from design to print and install. We are proud to be where we are today by helping others and at the same time working my way up.
Is our city a good place to do what you do?
Yes! I feel like anywhere you want to start a business is a good place. Building up your clientele is key!
