Zach has been a PPN member since the very beginning. We chose him as your Pro Painter of the month because of his dedication to bringing great quality and experience to his clients but also for his dedication to his team. He’s been featured on recent episodes of the Pro Painter Podcast (including our recent “Getting to $1 Million” series). Zach is truly a Pro.
Zach Ausherman
Ausherman Painting has been in business for 42 years. I took it over from my Dad, Mike, January 1 of this year. We are a primarily a high-end residential and commercial painting contractor. We’re located in York, PA which is 2 hours west of Philadelphia and an hour north of Baltimore, MD.
On the residential side we run the gamut of historical renovations to newer homes that are tired of the flat builder grade paint. On the commercial side, we work on older churches, law firms, dentist offices, etc. We don’t do new construction or large commercial or industrial.
High end residential and commercial repaints, including cabinet painting, limewashing, staining, fiberglass door refinishing.
To have a crew of at least 12 running through the winter months. We currently have 11.
Start to use our estimating software more regularly.
To hire a part-time sales rep to complement our current full-time sales rep.
Set ourselves up to be able to hire a production manager in the spring
That everyone is different. Try not to let your past experiences with a customer, employee, etc pre-empt how you’re going to interact with the next employee or customer. Everyone’s story and experience is different.
It was a factor (among others) to make us busier then we ever have been. We didn’t really change much. Just building off the momentum we currently have.
Figure out what’s important to you and make sure you carve out that time. Because there will not be enough hours in the day. And saying “no” is actually a good thing.
Time management. It seems like the customers are getting needier every year. And that neediness turns into extra time spent that you may not be getting ROI from. Hence the hopeful hire of a production manager.
Being at Veteran Stadium in Philadelphia when the Phillies won the National League pennant in 1993. I was 9 and I just remember the 70,000 plus fans going crazy.
Recently got into kayaking. It’s a peaceful way to get away from everything. Otherwise, I’m a big baseball, college football, and NFL fan (Eagles of course!)
Hitting up a local brewery or doing a little paddling
Hanging out with the family and catching up on our days.
New Orleans. Just hoping they can come back again.
