Meet Christopher Aleman | CEO SILK GLOSS CAR DETAILING

We had the good fortune of connecting with Christopher Aleman and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi CHRISTOPHER, where are your from? We’d love to hear about how your background has played a role in who you are today?
I AM FROM NICARAGUA AND I CAME TO THE UNITED STATES 3 YEARS AGO. I LOVE MY COUNTRY, MY FAMILY AND MY PAST. WITHOUT MY TRAJECTORY I WOULD NOT BE THE PERSON I AM TODAY. I STUDIED ECONOMICS AT THE NATIONAL AUTONOMOUS UNIVERSITY OF NICARAGUA UNAN MANAGUA. I ALSO RECEIVED A SCHOLARSHIP AT ECLAC – UNITED NATIONS AND SPECIALIZED IN SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED ENTERPRISES (SMEs). FINALLY, I RECEIVED A DIPLOMA IN BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE AT KEYSER UNIVERSITY IN MY COUNTRY.

I CAN PERSONALLY SAY THAT MY EDUCATION HAS OPENED GREAT OPPORTUNITIES FOR ME IN MY WORK WORLD. TO THIS DAY, I OWN MY OWN COMPANY. I LOVE NELSON MANDELA’S QUOTE (EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON IN THE WORLD), EDUCATING YOURSELF AND LEARNING EVERY DAY OPENS YOUR MIND, YOUR LIFE AND A FUTURE TO OBTAIN AND CREATE NEW OPPORTUNITIES.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
SILK GLOSS CAR DETAILING: FIRST OF ALL, I CAN SAY THAT I LOVE CARS. THIS IS A FACTOR THAT LED ME TO START MY BUSINESS AND SEE AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO BUSINESS BY PROVIDING CAR DETAILING AND CARE SERVICES TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE HIGH-END CARS IN MIAMI.

HOW I GOT TO WHERE I AM; FAILURE IS WHAT HAS LED ME TO BE THE PERSON I AM TODAY, FAILURE TEACHES YOU TO GROW AND CORRECT MISTAKES, LOVING WHAT I DO IS THE MAIN FACTOR THAT HAS LED ME TO WHERE MY BUSINESS HAS GROWN TODAY, WHEN YOU LOVE WHAT YOU DO, YOU DO EVERYTHING WELL, CARS ARE ALSO PART OF THE FAMILY, IT’S FUNNY THAT MY CLIENTS NORMALLY LAUGH EVERY TIME I EXPLAIN TO THEM EACH SERVICE I OFFER, SINCE THE CAR ALSO NEEDS CARE AND ATTENTION, AT THE END OF EVERYTHING THEY END UP ACCEPTING THAT A LUXURY CAR DESERVES SPECIAL TREATMENT, EITHER FOR ITS ECONOMIC VALUE OR FOR THE EFFORT THAT THE PERSON MAKES. I HAD TO DO IT TO GET IT, MANY OF THESE CARS WERE MY CUSTOMERS’ DREAM SINCE THEIR CHILDREN,

DESPITE THE DIFFICULTIES OF FINANCING, THIS DID NOT PREVENT ME FROM GOING FORWARD WITH MY IDEA, I STILL REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I WENT TO HOME DEPOT TO BUY A VACUUM CLEANER, SOME MICROFIBERS AND A CAR WASHING GLOVE, EVERY ROAD STARTS FROM THE FIRST STEP, NOW REMEMBERING ALL THIS I HAVE STARTED TO THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH GOD HAS BLESSED ME.

NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS, AUTOMOTIVATION IS VITAL TO SUCCEED DESPITE CRITICISM FROM OTHERS, YOU SHOULD NEVER TURN BACK FROM YOUR PROJECTS, YOUR LIFE AND YOUR DREAMS.

I WANT THE WORLD TO SEE ME AS THE BEST CAR DETAILER AND FOR SILK GLOSS CAR DETAILING TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A COMPANY THAT PROVIDES THE BEST CAR DETAILING SERVICES IN MIAMI. I KNOW THAT TO ACHIEVE THIS I MUST BE BETTER EVERY DAY AND THAT IS MY GOAL. I WANT THE WORLD TO RECOGNIZE ME AS THE BOY WHO CAME TO THE UNITED STATES WITH MANY DREAMS AND THAT TODAY I AM FULFILLING THEM STEP BY STEP.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
GREAT, IF IT WERE THE CASE I WOULD LOVE TO TAKE MY BEST FRIEND TO EAT AT CEVICHE 105 IN CORAL GABLES, THIS PLACE IS VERY COOL IN THE MIAMI STYLE, I WOULD ALSO INVITE HIM TO SEE LINCOL ROAD IN MIAMI BEACH AND OF COURSE TO HAVE A GOOD COFFEE AT VERSALLES RESTAURANT. MY BEST FRIEND LOVES COFFEE.

ON THE OTHER HAND, WE WOULD VISIT BRICKELL CITY CENTER AND OF COURSE WE WOULD TOUR ALL THE STORES IN THE MALL.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
THE GREATEST THANKS I OWE TO MY FAMILY, TO MY BEAUTIFUL MOTHER KARLA AND TO MY FATHER JUAN, WITHOUT THEIR ADVICE, THEIR WORDS OF MOTIVATION AND WITHOUT THEIR PRAYERS I WOULD NOT HAVE THE SUCCESS THAT I AM HAVING TODAY, MY PARENTS ARE THE ENGINE OF MY LIFE, IN ADDITION I GREATLY THANK ONE OF MY MAIN MENTORS, MR. TIMOTEO KO, WHO LIVES IN NEW JERSEY AND WHO HAS ALWAYS TRUSTED THAT I WOULD REACH SUCCESS SINCE WE MET, A HUG FOR HIM AND HIS WIFE, MRS. LILY KO.

I ALSO WANT TO MENTION THE BOOK THAT CHANGED A LOT OF MY LIFE, THIS IS CALLED THE LEADER WHO HAD NO TITLE BY THE AUTHOR ROBIN SHARMA, I LEARNED MANY VALUES FROM THIS BOOK AND NOW I CAN SAY THAT IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO HAVE A POSITION TO BE A LEADER AND DO THINGS WELL, LOVING WHAT YOU DO IS THE BEGINNING TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS.
