As so perfectly stated by Maya Angelou, “People don’t remember what you do or say, but they remember how you make them feel.” The most rewarding part of my job is being part of a team that genuinely cares about our clients’ experience and building a culture where everyone contributes to exceptional service and care as only they can. There’s NOTHING better than that!”

“I love serving our clients here at Fresh Paint because life is all about building relationships that last. It is a blessing to be able to build relationships with all kinds of people throughout the Twin Cities area over the years. The most rewarding aspect of building these relationships is when we grow our customer/partner relationship and the customer becomes part of the Fresh Paint family. This is such a gift to us because I truly believe we are here to serve rather than to be served, and this leads to so many joyful memories in our business.”

“Even though I don’t often witness the final results of our finished projects, I love the emails, testimonials, and comments that come in from our clients telling us what a great job we did. My responsibility lies in managing the administrative tasks that happen behind the scenes, enabling our team to provide exceptional service to our clients. Ultimately, serving our clients is what it is all about!”

“Whenever I approach a new project with a client, I see it as an opportunity to meet a new friend. So many projects are challenging, with various factors influencing how it will start and end. A client doesn’t want to hear about the problems, so the goal is to take those concerns away, find the solution, say, “Yes, we can do that.” and then make it happen. Trust and friendship are what it’s all about!”

“I love being involved in a project from the initial stages. It begins with a simple conversation where we listen to understand the customer’s requirements, and then we start on a collaborative journey working together step-by-step with our Production Team. The fulfillment that comes from helping our customers and building strong relationships is truly gratifying, and the sheer delight expressed by our clients upon completion of a project is incredibly rewarding!”

Melissa Nye-Barnier

“Being a Project Manager is incredibly rewarding. From the beginning walk-through to coordinating the crew, setting up the job site, and interacting with customers daily to ensure smooth progress and minimal disruptions, it’s very satisfying. However, nothing compares to the ultimate satisfaction of conducting a final walk-through with our clients and witnessing their expression when they realize their vision and expectations have come to life. Assisting them in selecting colors and determining placement is particularly gratifying because it signifies their trust in our expertise. It’s heartwarming to see many of our customers become loyal clients and good friends.”

Lukas Engman - Fresh Paint Inc.

Business Development Assistant

Lukas Engman

“I am passionate about building strong relationships with my customers and diving into their needs to determine how to assist them best. The most enjoyable aspect of this process is gaining a deeper understanding of the customer and collaboratively strategizing how we can contribute to achieving their goals. Once we’ve identified the ways in which our services can align with their objectives, we seamlessly coordinate with our production team to bring these visions to life. Witnessing the final outcome is particularly gratifying. Transforming a space isn’t merely about altering wall colors; it is a representation of the company’s image and has the potential to elevate an entire organization. The impact of our work extends beyond aesthetics. It influences the overall perception and feel of the environment.”
