Our Legacy
There are elements of fate, events that are seemingly out of our control; when any legacy is discussed.
We all have our individual legacy, with each chapter added to that life being written every day, month, and year.
My legacy has changed from 33 years as a 3M corporate type, to an entrepreneur these last two years.
The new clothing fits better, the previous legacy now irrevocably altered.
Events have created opportunity. Chaos lead inexorably to a "Clarity Of Purpose."
The opportunity to develop my own business strategy unencumbered by any knee-jerk, or limited, myopic thinking.
We all make choices. Customer's make choices.
One unique advantage for the "company philosophy" is having had the unique perspective of seeing the complexities of the window film business from both sides of the coin.
The manufacturer and the dealer's viewpoint. Throw in a healthy dose of how a Distributor might "view" this same business, and mix in huge portion of my immense personal ego and unbridled enthusiasm.
Failure Was Never An Option!
The concept of striking out on my own and failing was/is an unfathomable outcome.
Simply too many real or perceived enemies that might have gloated.
Long ago I determined that Corporate "not invented here" thinking had failed because the results they hope to achieve are contradicted by their failure in planning, and their inability to encourage their own people and their own channels to actualize success.
Advanced Film Solutions has at it's core a single-minded passion to provide the best solutions without the "benefit" of having some bureaucrat telling us how we should think, who we can talk to, or what these toadies imagine that we have to do!
We have no masters, no bogus "make believe forms" to fill out, no mind games, no mindless manipulation.
The fire that burns, gets hotter each and every day.
No; we won't lose.
We can't fail.
As we complete our second year; no matter the economy, no matter the amount of hurricanes, we will excel.
If there's a fight; we will win it!
We win because we know we offer the better solutions.
The "Better Mousetrap"
The freedom to create.
The freedom to achieve.

- Personalities over performance.
- Wishful thinking over detailed strategic planning.
- Reactive-short term thinking as opposed to inclusive sharing of true "best practices."
- Dictating direction rather than encouraging creativity and customer first thinking.
- Intimidation over Cooperation.
