#78 - Blake Fitzpatrick, Owner of Sunshine Movers in Sarasota

This week, we sit down with owner of Sunshine Movers, Blake Fitzpatrick.  Over the past 10 years, Blake has built a successful moving business by putting his customers’ needs first, and building genuine relationships with partners.  In fact, he lives by the motto, “make someone else the hero of the story, and you’ll win every time”.We dive deep into his business philosophy, how he got started in the business, and some of his more interesting moves.  As one of the few movers in the area who truly offers “White Glove Service”, his clients know they can trust him and his team from the moment they show up, to the moment they unpack the final item.In addition to the business discussion, we dive into the topic of Sarasota, it’s growth, and all of those roundabouts that keep popping up across town.  Of course, we also put him through the Rapid Fire Gauntlet.You can also follow Sunshine Movers on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/sunshine.movers.srq/Or check them out online:https://www.sarasotasunshinemovers.com/**********************The Sarasota SpeaX Podcast is hosted by:Bradley Hannon, Insurance Agency Owner and Entrepreneurhttps://www.bradhannon.comFelipe Colón, Partner/Investment Advisor for Sanderling Partnershttps://www.sanderlingpartners.com/Trey Martell, Owner of Strong Roofing SRQhttps://www.strongroofingsrq.comYou can follow the Sarasota SpeaX team on Instagram HostBrad Hannon - https://www.Instagram.com/b_hannonHost Trey Martell - https://www.Instagram.com/treypod3Host Felipe Colon - https://www.Instagram.com/fjc424Producer Eric (E-Dub) Hollister - https://www.Instagram.com/elhollisterDigital Media & Distribution, Morgan Steffes - https://www.Instagram.com/mcsteffes************************Sarasota SpeaX is a hyper-local podcast that will feature the incredible entrepreneurs, leaders and personalities that make Sarasota, and the greater surrounding area, tick.
