Since taking over the Majestic Stone operation in 2016, CEO Patrick Wells has helped the company grow from 25 employees to 45, 25 distributors to 130 and $1 million in revenue to a potential $3.5 million this year.
And he didn’t know a thing about stone when he started.
But he also didn’t know a thing about the legal industry when he started a legal outsourcing company in Mobile, Alabama, and he didn’t know a lot about the auto salvage industry when he ventured into that business, too.
For Wells, it’s all about the product and service and how a company differentiates themselves from the competition.
“It all just comes back to the basics of business,” the 32-year-old says.
