Jeremy Sparks joined his father in the construction business right after high school, later forming his own company. After years of success in the business, in 2009 he began to feel the economic slowdown. It was harder to find new customers, and the jobs he had were smaller.

He could have three to six customers a week, or more, instead of three or four customers a year. It was the ideal step forward. More.
