We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Sergio Martinez. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Sergio below.

Sergio, appreciate you joining us today. We’d love to go back in time and hear the story of how you came up with the name of your brand?

I wanted to keep my logo & name traditional so I just took the ez off my last name which is Martinez & named It MRMARTINDETAILING to be more simple but unforgettable all in one .At the time there were a lot of Martinez companies around & I did not want to get my business name mixed up with like a construction 🚧 firm or any other business with the same name .It was frustrating trying to figure that out also but I went with my instincts & it payed off in the long run

Sergio, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

How did you build your audience on social media?

When instagram first came out you only had 15 seconds to share with the world 🌎 what u were presenting so i said my phone number really fast n showed then exactly what I was working on that day n it took on a life of itself my followers started becoming clients & I was introduced to a whole different level of promoting & learning as well.As I grew into this industry I grew as a DETAILER a father a husband & a man who loves what he does & community were I come from & reside at & social media grew with me as I grew into who I am today

Does your business have multiple or supplementary revenue streams (like a ATM machine at a barbershop, etc)?

Yes we just don’t detail vehicles we detail it all homes commercial properties hoarding jobs trash removal blood borne pathogens deep cleaning & water damage & mold redemption.We also do have a food truck which my wife Mrs Martin cookies & my kids k&s lemonade LLC which we do a lot of community events & private parties catering etc we can pull up anywhere we fully licensed & insured
