Meet Mike Crofts

We recently connected with Mike Crofts and have shared our conversation below.

Mike, we’ve been so fortunate to work with so many incredible folks and one common thread we have seen is that those who have built amazing lives for themselves are also often the folks who are most generous. Where do you think your generosity comes from?

The easiest way to describe my generosity towards people is, I’ve personally been on the receiving end of generous people, as well as the opposite.
It never makes sense to add to the negative that’s already out in the world and in people’s lives. You can make so much more of an impact giving back in some way rather than being negative!

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

So I have been running my own mobile detailing business for over 3 years now, and has been growing since.
Growing as much as I have not only in business but as a person learning everything that comes with it.
A great saying I’ve heard around when I first started my business was “you don’t know what you don’t know”
And that really shifted my perspective since I’ve heard it.
Since then I’ve been focused more on growing and expanding personally and business wise!

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

Lose the fear of failing!
There are so many successful people out there that became successful by putting plans into action, sometimes failing or growing further!
Try something new. Having an open mind to grow in ways you didn’t think possible opens up so many opportunities, especially if you start to liking whatever it is you’re getting into!
Do it with a friend. Growing in new ways personally or in business is always a plus if you can be the inspiration to make a friend want to do the same!

Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?

Hand down my wife Lauren Crofts.
She has seen the anxiety, stress, frustration, all of the emotions. It’s certainly not easy holding it all together and still keeping going. I can’t put into words how thankful I am for my wife and how much of an inspiration she has been to me!
For her to run her own business and show me how it’s done, while making it look easy would definitely make anyone extremely proud and I can certify say as her husband I am extremely proud of her.
