| Scranton detailing company celebrates six years |
Husband and wife team, David and Lucia Peregrim, opened Ricochets Rapid Detail at 715 Fig St Scranton 6 years ago on 09/29/2002. The couple with 25 years of experience in the auto detailing industry incorporated as an LLC on 10/31/2007. The business participates in charity events annually such as American Cancer Society Ball of Hope,Northeast Regional Cancer Institute "It's all in the Game", NEPA Miners Night Out and Silent Auction, American Red Cross Annual Dinner Auction,Gino J Merli Vets Center Volunteer Day,Scranton Preparatory School Starry Starry Night Auction and WVIA.ORG auction.
Growing up in a family-owned business, Lucia's Pizza, Lucia Peregrim always felt she would like to run her own operation once the pizza shop shut down in 2001. Now she is the operations manager for Ricochet's Rapid Detail, 715 Fig St., Scranton, an automotive detailing business.
It all started when she and her husband Dave Peregrim finally opened their own shop -- Ricochet's-- September 29,2002 one year after the couple was married. . Dave detailed cars for Tom Hesser Chevrolet and other shops, and since 1998 has detailed for Kelly Volkswagen. She points to her husband's hard work and her excellent public relations skills as tools they use to get the business off the ground and keep it healthy. She supported her husband's dreams from the beginning as his professional and personal lifetime partner.
The whole thing comes down to proper planning, she says. Once you have the dream and know how to do it, you can do anything, she stresses. She credits her parents who ran Lucia's pizza from 1984 to 2001 for her work ethic and she attributes her professional success to her husband. They both worked very hard to get where they are now, she says. Their ability to work well together makes it possible to achieve their mutual goals. The biggest challenges come from the competitive nature of the local automotive market. There are many businesses of all sizes vying for the automotive owner's money. But the challenges are outweighed by the rewards. "Making our customers happy", she claims as her biggest reward. She also believes in pursuing the dream. "As long as you have a dream you can achieve anything", she says. She, her husband, dog Daisy Duke and two cats Bo Duke and WynDixie enjoy the private time they have together. But she admits private time is hard to find. Concentrating on keeping everything organized and afloat, she works on the side for Notify MD as an answering service operator. In the end she emphasizes she is grateful for everything she has and feels very successful in what she does.
Parts of this press release was published by the NEPA BJ, -- By Ralph Nardone, back when Lucia won the Top 25 women in business award. |
