We had the good fortune of connecting with Austin McMeans and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Austin, what principle do you value most?
Culture. Without a strong company culture, our mission statement is useless. Zig ziglar said it best “You don’t build a business, you build people, and the people build the business”. Building and developing individuals that work for our company is my number one priority. If I want to build a great company, first I must build great people
What should our readers know about your business?
Starting a business is never easy. Overcoming the challenges requires focusing on solutions, not problems. There will be multiple problems come at you from every direction on a daily basis (if you are running your business right). The key is to effectively attack those problems with a great attitude, while motivating others around you to stay positive. Our mission statement is to “elevate the standard in service. professionalism, and craftsmanship” We achieve this mission by always having a great work ethic and attitude, and always doing what we say we are going to do. Underpromising and over delivering is the key to building long term, lasting relationships in business.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Clyde warren park is great. It has a great atmosphere and it has something for everyone. Also, DFW has some great golf courses. We would definitely play at a few of the top courses in the area. Also, the stockyards in Fort Worth are really scenic and traditional.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Yes, my team. All of our team members in our company are unique in their strengths. They are the motor behind making our company move to the next level. I could not accomplish anything without them, and they are truly great individuals. So thankful for them!
