Dear Valued Customer,
Way back in 1935 my grandfather was working in the local mill, and times were really tough. It was hard feeding 7 kids on one paycheck. One day the owner of the mill asked my grandfather to come over and take a look at his home. Grand Dad had done all the mill's products paintings and coatings. So Freddie painted the boss's house.
And our first residential customer was satisfied. After painting the owner's house, Freddie painte d the neighbor's house as well. Before long, Freddie had painted that whole town up there in that small town in the Great state of Vermont, where a tradition of American craftsmanship still exists today. My grandfather built up such a clientele that he never did go back to that ole' mill.
Soon came the second generation of painters in our family, my father and uncles traveled New England painting Victorian homes and mansions of the rich and famous of that time, Government buildings as well as Cathedrals and theaters, Opera Houses and many great gathering places for the public.
Then as time past, a third generation of painters became involved in the painting industry. Yes, they went to college, got them degrees too. But the livelihood of the Greeno Family has been painting and I'm very proud to say that I am carrying the torch for another generation. For 72 years my family has provided folks with a quality product at an honest price.
The Greeno Families have been pioneers in this industry and is one of the oldest family owned painting concerns in the country. Not so long ago, out of 1800 entrants we have won first place in a national award for historic restoration in the Snell Isle area of Saint Petersburg. Our work is very diverse, from component painting to industrial buildings to upscale residential homes.
Spring time brings one of the greatest automobile races to the strees of Saint Petersburg. Working with the city officials and Andretti-Green Racing we provide painting services and technical coating support for this fantastic event. This event showcases the city of Saint Petersburg and its beautiful waterfront via televison to over a 120 countries. Our work is on display for the world to see. We are very proud to be part of such a great event.
If you are the kind of folks that want it done right the first time and are willing to pay the price to have quality craftsmanship, then we think perhaps we are the folks you should consider. Thousands of satisfied customers have used our services. We have developed systems that are widely used in the industry today.
Our goal is to provide the best product money can buy. Our systems are on the cutting edge of today's technology and we are constantly working to improve our systems and procedures. You cannot stay on the top of your game unless you are willing to sacrifice who you are for what you can become.
It has always been our craftsmanship that set us apart from our competitors. We have never felt inclined to lower our standards to meet competitors price. We have found that often we cannot meet our competitors pricing and they cannot meet our standards! So there you have it and the choice is truly yours, quality versus price.
My dad's favorite saying was, "You get what you pay for." And that is so true. That was his way of saying quality work doesn't cost but it pays off in the long run. We will provide you with a quality product at a fair price. We have to eat too you know?
When anyone starts any business you have to decide what you are going to offer the public. The principles my grandfather implemented 71 years ago, are very much the same today. We are grateful for his vision and the commitment of my forefathers.
When you offer a high quality product all it truly means is that you never have to apologize for the results. For me personally that means I can look you in the eyes and say I have done the best job we are capable of.
Our services will give you many years of protection and durability. It takes three simple philosophies to be a success in the painting industry, Quality, Honesty and Integrigy.
Very truly yours,
Kevin M. Greeno
