Founded in 2019 by Mike Thompson, this Denver-based painting company specializes in high-end residential repaints and new construction painting. Starting as a one-man operation, Mike built his business to include four full-time painting crews serving the greater Denver metropolitan area.
Like many painting contractors, Mike found himself wearing multiple hats - estimator, project manager, accountant, and customer service representative. Despite growing demand for his services, he was hitting a ceiling in his business growth due to:
- Spending 3-4 hours daily on phone calls and emails
- Delays in responding to new customer inquiries
- Missing follow-up opportunities with potential clients
- Manual quote creation taking up to 2 hours per project
- Difficulty coordinating multiple crew schedules
- Late evenings spent on invoicing and paperwork
"I was working 80-hour weeks just to keep up with administrative tasks," recalls Mike. "I knew I was losing jobs simply because I couldn't get back to people quickly enough."
After implementing DripJobs in January 2024, Thompson's Professional Painting transformed their operations by:
