Here's a book that tells how to
start YOUR own trailer business, as Mike as done! |
Mike receives constant inquiries from folks seeking advice on how to get
started building trailers to provide additional income, to supplement their
retirement or stepping out with a new business venture. The information in this
booklet is geared to the one-owner / operator, backyard, at-home type business.
It will be helpful whether you want to start a second career, a hobby that also
makes a little extra spending money or a full-time business. "My objective is to
share my experience with you, not only in what has worked, but what I would do
differently if starting over."

Endorsements for Starting a Trailer Business on a Shoestring
“Mike Rawalt’s Starting a Trailer Business on a Shoestring provides
a very practical “jump start” for anyone considering a small
business. Mike wanted to earn some income from his own part time
business, so he methodically set up about to make it happen. Now,
some years – and a lot of trailers – later, Mike’s small business
has become as successful as he hoped, and you can do the same.”
“This book would also be worth the read for anyone considering a
small manufacturing business.”
“Mike has lived the dream of developing and growing his trailer
manufacturing business. The advice and counsel he includes in this
booklet can help you avoid many of the pitfalls that can easily trap
you. They reflect the voice of experience. As you apply the
principles and concepts outlined here you will develop and build
your own business with confidence knowing that you are following a
path that has been tested with success. Mike’s common sense approach
will save you valuable time and money.”
“If your niche is something other than building trailers you can
apply Mike’s guidance to essentially any startup business. My niche
is woodworking. I build custom furniture and do wood turning one
customer at a time. Mike’s advice is just as good for this as it is
for many other manufacturing processes.”
“Follow the steps in this booklet and enjoy many years of business
success."
