Hi, Moe Here!
Since this is my first time contributing to this blog I would like to introduce myself. My name is Moshe, but most people call me Moe. I am happily married living in Northern NJ with my wife of 2 ½ years and 18 month old adorable girl. Some of my hobbies are hiking, walking, biking, music, and family. I love nature. My idea of enjoyment is spending quality time with friends and family.
As you may have seen in Ben`s very first post on this blog, Ben started Regal Kitchens & Baths in Brooklyn NY 20 years ago, selling kitchen cabinets to some of the finest landlords in the 5 boroughs of the city, as well as other cities in the Tri-State area. When he started, Ben started with just himself and one other employee. Over time the company grew to employ over 10 full time employees in the office as well as installers on the various job sites. We had a website, www.regalkitchens.com, an informative rather than an e-commerce website. I started work for my dad (Ben) about 3 ½ years ago. I started out as salesman on the road knocking on doors, kinda tough in a city like NYC. At one of our annual employee meetings the idea was thrown out to expand our services to the retail public since we are stocking items they require. We stock sinks faucets, knobs, as well as other items for our customers, so we figured, why not offer them to the general public. this was the seeds from which the www.regalhomesource.com tree was born.
I started the project about 2 years ago. At the beginning I liked sitting in the office all day rather than running around the cold (and hot) NY streets, dealing with some of the biggest landlords here. However, the work involved in getting the new website, www.regalhomesource.com, up and running properly was enormous. Over time when the sales started pouring in and the positive feedback from our returning customers was tremendously rewarding. Now I am in charge of running the day to day operations of www.regalhomesource.com and I love it. I wouldn’t give it up for any other job in the world.
A little more about exactly what I do next time, until then………Happy Holidays.
