Each month, we are delighted to introduce you to one of the members of the Alkaloid Networks community, a coworking space on the Eastside Atlanta Beltline. This month we spoke with Jay Blanco from Yanover Painting and Remodeling.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

\n
\n

What are you working on right now?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Yanover Painting and Remodeling is currently painting a residential home with exterior mineral-based paint.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

What are the benefits of this type of paint?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
What makes silicate mineral paint so special, compared to conventional paint coatings, is its ability to not just coat a surface, but to permanently bond the coat of paint. This bond results in a longer lasting coating that is breathable, noncombustible, and water resistant.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n

Who is your ideal client?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Our target audience is homeowners and commercial projects in need of renovation and painting services.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n

What is a common misconception about your industry or work?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
It’s a common misconception about the painting industry that it’s always a better option to go with a cheaper company to save money. Going with a cheaper option can sometimes cost you more down the line.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n

What is your big picture vision for your business?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
We want to grow the company to be successful and eventually being one of the top painting companies in the state of Georgia.<\/p>\n

What book should everybody read?<\/h4>\n

How to Win Friends and Influence People<\/a> by Dale Carnegie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

What is your superpower?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
Public speaking!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n

What is your favorite business or productivity tool?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
I have 4 favorites:<\/div>\n
    \n
  1. Google Drive<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Estimate Rocket<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. Quickbooks<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. Google Keep<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    Why Alkaloid?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    First, the location was fabulous. I wanted a place that employees would enjoy being at. Being on the Atlanta Beltline<\/a> and having access to places like Krog Street Market<\/a> is a huge plus. Second, when I came for a tour with Katharine, the Community Manager and Founder<\/a>, I knew immediately that this coworking space was personally caring and involved positively.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    What is your favorite amenity at Alkaloid?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    The conference rooms are very convenient!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    <\/div>\n

    What advice would you give someone considering coworking?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    You have to be open to meeting new people and sharing business ideas! You never know what you’ll learn from people around you also starting a business.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    Meet more<\/a>\u00a0of our fabulously diverse members!
    \nBetter yet,\u00a0    visit us for a tour<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0join our friendly community<\/a>!<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
