Started my first business when I was in the 5th grade painting Hot Wheels. Charged $0.15 cents for a repaint job and $0.25 cents for added stripes. In the 7th grade I wanted to graduate high school and start my own business in the Supply business but mainly just because I thought the name "Sikes Supplies" sounded really cool. In College I wrote papers on creating my own Ad Agency (love commercials and loved the show "Thirty-Something" -it was a t.v show about two guys that owned an Ad Agency). And in '95 I finally got my chance or an opportunity to start my first real business- SIKES LABELING. HOW? I got fired- only time in my life someone fired me and the last time. Two years later I started PERSONALIZED BOTTLE WATER, INC. That's right, we sell private label water and we are the BEST at what we do!Whether Blessed or just Lucky- I am excited to be doing exactly what I am doing. Raising a Family, Loving Life, and working for myself. We continue to grow each year (except for 2008- brutal!!) and we have a good time doing it. I remember my first sale and I remember the first time we broke 1 million in sales. From selling labels door to door in Industrial Parks to labeling water by hand at midnight - I can honestly say, "I wouldn't change a thing". Life is short my friends. Gather Ye Rose Buds while Ye may. Oh and best of all, my father, mother, one of my three brothers, wife, and four of my six nephews and niece have worked side by side with me! Watch out 10 Million- one day I will get you too.
