University of Minnesota Student Manages Exterior Painting Business in Mendota Heights
Mendota Heights, Minnesota - My name is Jake North and I am the local branch manager for College Works Painting in the Mendota Heights area. This upcoming summer I will be managing an exterior home painting business with a crew of skilled workers. College Works Painting hires college students like me to learn business skills through a hands-on internship running a branch of their business for the summer.
I am a college student at the University of Minnesota majoring in Applied Economics. Being awarded the Evans Scholarship has proven my work ethic and leadership skills that will help guide my business towards success. During the spring I will be working weekends marketing, and doing estimates for homeowners interested in painting. When school lets out for the summer, I will be in the full swing of my business; managing costs, hiring painters, painting homes, organizing payroll, and managing customer relations.
