Being the new guy in town isn't easy, especially when you're starting a business from scratch with no established history or reputation to fall back on.
I've spent countless hours behind a computer, sent over 100 cold emails, followed up with potential clients, and knocked on doors trying to convince people to give ACES a chance. Getting your foot in the door when nobody knows who you are has been one of the biggest challenges of this entire process.
But after all those emails and long hours, the new guy in town just landed one of Oklahoma's five largest festivals.
This will be our first major test and an opportunity to prove that the vision I've been working toward can become a reality. It's also our proof of concept for the medical coverage model I want ACES to provide at large-scale events throughout Oklahoma.
I'm not looking at this as just another contract. I'm looking at it as an opportunity to demonstrate what ACES is capable of, establish our reputation, and hopefully get people talking. Every business needs that first big opportunity, and I'm hoping this will be the one that opens more doors for us.
Most importantly, I want to thank my ACES crew. You guys have stuck by me while I've spent long hours trying to build this company from absolutely nothing. You believed in what I was trying to accomplish before there was much of anything to show for it. I know building a new company comes with uncertainty, and I appreciate every one of you for being willing to take this journey with me.
My reputation might get us through the door someday, but it's our people and the care we provide that will keep us there.
Now it's time to show Oklahoma what ACES can do.
Also, if you have not done so already it would be a huge help if you could all hit that “like” button and share our page to help us spread like these Oklahoma wild fires
