Success Story _ Tint Technologies
Tint Technologies | Colorado Springs, CO
Paul Hasty is the owner of multiple successful automotive aesthetics companies in the Colorado Springs area, all focused on making vehicles look and feel fantastic. Through Tint Technologies, Hasty has built a reputation as the premier window tint provider in the region, serving not only cars but also homes and commercial buildings. A key differentiator for his business is the use of "break-resistant" window tint, an added safety measure highly valued by customers, as evidenced by positive testimonials.
Paul's love for cars is rooted in his Detroit upbringing. He began his career installing minor car accessories before focusing on window tint, recognizing its significant importance to vehicle owners. When asked about starting the business, he jokingly stated that it "looked easy initially," but his consistent growth proves otherwise.
Strategy, Success, and the Colorado SBDC
Paul credits the Colorado SBDC in the Pikes Peak region as a vital partner in the growth and success of Tint Technologies. He summarized the experience by stating, "The SBDC helped me to focus on growing my business instead of working in my business." His SBDC advisor provided valuable one-on-one mentorship on critical areas, including:
- Growth planning and strategy.
- Marketing initiatives.
- Hiring and team expansion.
Paul found the advisor's support instrumental for major decisions, such as strategizing the purchase of new equipment to ensure it was the right next step for the company. The personal connection with his advisor, who is also a veteran, provided an easy basis for personal and professional rapport.
