What is your plan for the Jobber Grant?

I will buy more equipment so that I can take on more jobs and hopefully be able to hire help. 

If the money was given to me I would utilize it by purchasing a delivery vehicle to start my business. Entrepreneurship has always been a dream since I was a young adult. I've attempted many times and failed many times. When I first started I was in a small town, it made it difficult to really expand. This time around I'm in booming area of the country people are moving here daily. There's an opportunity to serve and create something helpful to gig economy in this area. Fingers crossed hopefully Jobber blesses me. 

Be able to afford more equipment  and help others get their music out there 

Boost the local economy with my equipment purchases and manufacturing 

I would give all my employees a good raise. They work their butts off everyday for me and dont complain. That would be the start, see to it my employees are taken care of. Then work on equipment needed to make everyone's jobs just a bit easier. We want to grow and continue to grow. We help a lot of elderly, so being able to budget with them to where it's not so bad on their small income would also be wonderful to be able to help them. Plus our school is small, so if we are able to send a donation for our kids to have a better future we would help their also!

We would secure a foothold in the rural area the shop is located. I could better serve the community from auto repair, tire repair, ac, tune-ups, window tint, vehicle wrapping to auto sales and DIY.

I haven't  i am though !

Crown Him Roofing & Construction is committed to serving those who have served our country. We regularly help veterans, seniors, and families on fixed incomes who are often unable to afford necessary home repairs. One of our most rewarding projects involved restoring a retired Marine’s deck and patio after he had battled cancer and undergone multiple surgeries. By providing quality work at a reduced cost, we helped restore not only his property but also his peace of mind.

A grant would allow us to expand our ability to serve veterans and other underserved members of our community, invest in equipment, create local jobs, and continue offering affordable, reliable home repair services. Our goal is to ensure that those who have sacrificed for others are not left behind when they need help maintaining a safe and comfortable home.

Very Grateful to even have a chance to make a change and stay impactful 💪🏿

Thank you for this prompt! It is great to think of already having been offered the grant, as if it was already a reality. I would use the grant to hire a full-time employee. It is just myself and one part time person working in the field and once I hire a full time, experienced employee, that will allow me to step back and focus more on design work and better business practices rather than landscape maintenance tasks. I am looking forward to this shift as I am doing it ALL myself right now and it is truly a bit exhausting and less creative than I had hoped for.
