## Story

In a recent interview with Arkansas Business, Boris Okong, a new franchisee of 360° Painting, discussed how he accomplished his dream of business ownership by working hard and saving money. Before franchising with 360° Painting, one of the nation’s fastest growing residential and commercial painting franchises, Okong worked as an engineer in the energy business. He decided to leave his job and open a franchise so he could have more opportunities to spend time with his family.

Okong told Arkansas Business, “I wanted a franchise where I could serve clients because I love meeting new people. I love doing a good job and seeing a satisfied customer.” Okong’s new Little Rock location is made up of three teams of experienced painters.

These painters go through training to make sure they are qualified to work with the company and meet the needs of their clients.

360° Painting has more than 120 units currently open and hopes to expand to more than 30 new locations by the end of the year. The brand offers a wide range of services to its clients and takes pride in the positive feedback it receives from clients.
