In this episode, I was joined by Moses Horner, the Founder and Owner of Horner Painting, as he celebrates their 25 years in business! Horner Painting is a market leader in both new construction and residential repaints, and Moses is also my landlord and a longtime LoCo Facilitator for a Builders chapter.
We talked about Moses' special sauce in founding and growing the business, which for Moses has always been maximizing - continuous improvement and streamlining operations. Moses emphasized the importance of operating with profit margins from day one and advises against expanding too quickly - in team size or overhead expenditures. He shares his journey in developing his skills, acknowledging the significance of his LoCo Think Tank membership in helping him develop both business acumen and leadership skills. We also dug into his recent separation from a minority partner, and the challenge in both honoring a strong relationship - and knowing when it’s time for a change.
We dove into Moses' family life, discussing his 31-year marriage to Sara, his pride in his children and their pursuits, and their shared love of travel. Recent travels recounted included a surf trip to El Salvador and a harrowing motorcycle accident in Mongolia that turned into an opportunity to experience the region in a whole new way.
Our conversation highlights the cultural and business experiences that come from fostering strong relationships, and the power of intentionality with family, community engagement, and the pursuit of a lasting legacy. He’s a friend, a mentor, and a strong example of the power of peer advisory - so please enjoy, as I did, my conversation with Moses Horner.
