from The Pete Primeau Show · host Pete Primeau
In this episode, we’re joined by Vernon “RJ” Williams and Tara Day, the powerhouse co-owners of Jacksonville Bedding Mattresses and More. Together, they dive into what it really means to build a business rooted in trust, service, and—most importantly—authenticity. RJ shares his 10+ year journey in the sleep industry, his passion for helping people overcome serious sleep challenges, and how he balances entrepreneurship with family life and a love for travel. Tara, whose career began after a leap of faith (and a mattress delivery gig), brings unmatched energy, multitasking magic, and a deep love for people to everything she does. With backgrounds in customer service and a shared commitment to real connections, RJ and Tara unpack the heart and hustle behind their brand. Whether you're chasing better sleep, dreaming of launching a business, or just craving a dose of real talk, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and maybe even ready for a nap. 👤 Connect with RJ Williams & Tara Day: ✅ LinkedIn (RJ Williams): https://www.linkedin.com/in/vernon-williams-150a11320/ ✅ LinkedIn (Tara Day): https://www.linkedin.com/in/tara-day-050400a4 ✅ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacksonville_bedding ✅ Website: https://jacksonvillebedding.com/ ✅We are proud partners with Mattress Industry Network: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mattressindustrynetwork ✅The Mattress Industry Network's core values are helping others to Build, Market, Sell and Succeed in the Mattress Industry 🎥 Want to create live streams like this?
