About the event

Our success Story, Straight To You

Let me guess.  When you started your painting business, you dreamed of a profitable enterprise that allowed you the freedom and money to live your life in the way you wanted. However, now that you’re a couple of years in, you’re finding the opposite is true. 

My name is Nick May and I’ve owned a successful painting business for 22 years. I remember those 60-hour work weeks and days spent putting out fires very well. It took a lot of trial and error, but I finally arrived at a place where my business was secure, and I was able to live the life I had imagined when I started my company over two decades ago.

I would love to invite you to join me and about 40 other contractors from around the country in Boston on January 14th, 2022 for our second Crankstart!

We will share how you can obtain freedom in your business and your life and not only make a consistent paycheck but make more money than you’ve ever made before.

If you’re anything like most painters, you’re good, if not GREAT at painting.  The problem is you were never taught how to run a business.  I want to help you understand the importance of systems, how to know and understand your numbers, and how to effectively market your company. Not only that, but I want to connect you to other painters from around the country who have experienced similar struggles and successes.

Nick May, owner of Walls By Design and Pro Painter Network

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! It’s just an additional $100 to include a spouse or partner.

This event is really meant for owners and those in an ownership mindset, so if you’d like to bring somebody from your office, we require another full ticket purchase.

We’ve listed our itinerary and will send out an exact schedule closer to the event, but you must be in Boston and at the Embassy Suites by 6PM on Friday to catch our meet and greet cocktail party.

Not at all, but we highly recommend it to get the full experience, and the most bang for your buck. A lot of the value of events like these is linking up and talking with others (including our staff and speakers) throughout the weekend.

Officially, the event will be over by 2PM on Sunday. However! Everyone is welcome to stay longer, and continue to enjoy eachother’s company and explore Boston.

Yes, and we now include that as part of your standard ticket price! After the event has wrapped, we will provide VOD (videos-on-demand) to everyone just as soon as they’re produced and uploaded.
