I've been grinding as a painter out of Nashville for about 8 years now, mostly residential interiors with Benjamin Moore Aura for that premium finish. Last month I threw together a quick LinkedIn post showing before-and-after shots of a tricky vaulted ceiling job we wrapped up, day in the life style with me and my helper masking off crown molding at dawn. Didn't expect much, but it blew up in my network and landed a $15k gig for a full office repaint on a historic building downtown. Man, the callbacks were nonstop after that, even got some referrals from architects I didn't know. Felt like a win after all the dry spells we've had here. Check out this thread on r/paintingbusiness where someone shared a similar story.

watch out for those historic buildings downtown, one wrong move on the trim and you're dealing with a pissed off preservation board fining you thousands. i saw a guy get hit with a $5k penalty last year for scraping off some old paint wrong.

Damn, that's the kind of break every painter dreams of. Nashville's market sounds hot right now.

Haha, nothing beats a good before-after flex on social. Mine was a kitchen cabinet redo that got me three leads, but yours is next level.

For real, cabinet jobs always pull in the residential crowd. What color did you go with on that office? Aura in gray tones?
