If someone were to ask me what I do for a living what would I say. Well, I am a house painter by trade. But as time goes by and a company grows, you become many things. At first KC Paint Company was strictly residential repaint. Then as we grew, we began doing Commercial painting. We only used to stay in Cumming, Ga. As our reputation grew we began branching out and now have a location in Alpharetta. My job title has changed as well. I started out painting with the guys on every job. Then as the company changed my role had to also. As of late though, how companies do business and how they increase their exposure has changed. The Internet is how many people are finding potential contractors. Getting "found" on the Internet is no game. It can be a complicated and expensive avenue of advertising. One helpful tool is a "blog". As I recently learned at "PACE", getting articles published is another way. So, I have given it a try. Check out my article: http://ezinearticles.com/?4-Things-You-Need-to-Know-BEFORE-You-Hire-a-Paint-Contractor&id=2062540.

KC Paint Company was well represented at the Painting and Coatings Expo, the Painting And Decorating Contractors of Ameriaca's (PDCA) annual convention, in New Orleans this month. PACE is much more than a trade show. It provides painting contractors with industry specific education in both business and technical topics. The workshops we attended really gave us a boost and helped us to see areas that we can improve on to help keep our company strong in a weak economy. After the expo, held from Feb 15-18, we came away with a renewed commitment to the PDCA's code of ethics.
