Patch Boyz x Daniel Villegas “ Branded 14 Hot Shot Owner” | EP.105

Send us a textWhen Daniel Villegas first decided to get his CDL at 19, he couldn't have imagined how that decision would transform into Branded 14 - one of the most recognized hot shot services in the Permian Basin. After discovering that pipeline work wasn't for him, Villegas found his calling in transportation, specifically in ESP (Electrical Submersible Pump) hauling.What makes his story compelling is the strategic business decisions that set Branded 14 apart. While many hot shot companies chase long-haul work across state lines, Villegas deliberately specialized in the ESP niche, keeping his drivers local. "You're going to be home every night. It might be late, but you're going to be home," he explains, highlighting how this focus has contributed to business stability even during industry downturns. "It'll slow down, but it won't stop," he notes about ESP work, revealing the resilience of this specialized service.The company's name itself reflects the family values at its core - his son suggested adding the number 14, his baseball jersey number passed down from father to son. This family-first approach extends to how Villegas runs his business, from maintaining long-term relationships with clients to supporting his drivers. Many of his current customers are people he's worked with for decades, who started as service techs and have risen to management positions where they now make purchasing decisions.Daniel Villegas Links: https://www.facebook.com/share/19ZsZq3qSs/?mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://www.tiktok.com/@villegasd?_t=ZT-8wHVM3B3dQE&_r=1Merch Sponsor:Tejas Hustle Hat Co https://www.instagram.com/tejashustlehatco?igsh=MXdtOTA5dnZ6dnpoOA==https://tejashatco.com/Sponsors:Underdog Wireline Services  432-247-1033Completion :Horizontal / Vertical PerforatingAddressable / EB SwitchesRadial Cement Bond Logging10k & 5k PCS / Rig Lock40-50 Ton CranesPipe Recovery :Free Point, Jet & Chemical CutsTemperature Logging, Back Off / Drill Pipe / Casing Tubing Well Head Shot,Coil Tubing,TCP Cutting,Well Intervention Logging / Stuck PipeProduction:Packer / CIBP / ESP CatcherMulti-Finger Caliper, Temperature Logging,Cement / Acid / Sand BailingGamma PerforatingJunk Basket / Gauge Ring                              BRANDED 14 HOT SHOT SERVICE, LLC:                                                          Contact Number: 432-638-1755 Email:[email protected]                 Any Hot Shot Work, ESP spooling, ESP Technician service & Heavy Hauling W/Semis                                                                             Titan Sales & Services:                                                                     Contact: 432-307-1960                                                              &
