Meet Robert Mata of Robert’s Elegant Doors

Today we’d like to introduce you to Robert Mata.

Thanks for sharing your story with us Robert. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
In 1995, I started working for a door company here in Houston, TX which I was referred to by a friend. At the time, I needed money to support my wife and 3 kids so I needed to find a job as soon as possible. Thankfully, I was hired at the door company and even though the pay still wasn’t enough I kept working to provide for my family. Before I left the door company to start working in construction I familiarized myself with the door business and I started buying one or two doors here and there and selling them from home. I found myself enjoying selling doors and that’s when the idea of starting my own business began but I didn’t have all the money yet so I worked in construction as an operator for several years till I had enough to invest. Once I had the money I started looking for places where I could start my business and soon enough I found a place, it wasn’t huge but I believed it was a great location to start. In 2007 I opened for business and it was a very proud moment for my wife and I and we’ve been in business ever since. Fast forward to now, my oldest daughter is my right hand and together we work as a family to keep this business going.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It hasn’t always been a smooth road. There’s been a couple of bumps on the road. At one point, business was very slow and I thought I might have to close for good but I didn’t let that bring me down, I worked even harder and thank God, business started picking up again.
