I was the Tech Founder of Bolt On Technology and successfully built a SaaS business scaling to 10M in ARR with an exit to private equity. At 14, I started my first company as a disc jockey and 10 years later, I started a career as a Microsoft developer. In the early 2000s, I started working with software for the automotive repair industry and was frustrated with the experience I was having. This led to the idea to start Bolt On Technology. Bolt On Technology, a play on words, was designed to implement best practices through software automation.The mission was to change the way service professionals communicate the findings of automobiles to vehicle owners by sending a link to the vehicle owner's mobile device. From 2011, Bolt On scaled from customer #1 to approximately 4000 roofs across the US and Canada, and secured relationships with companies like SiriusXM, Carfax, Mitchell 1 and Genuine Auto Parts.
