BRX Pro Tip: Build Community With Your Community

Stone Payton: [00:00:00] And we are back with BRX Pro Tips. Stone Payton and Lee Kantor here with you this afternoon. Lee, when it comes to building community, your council is, build community with your community, not for your community.

Lee Kantor: [00:00:16] Absolutely. I think that for most small to midsized businesses, one of the areas that they’re neglecting is really building and nurturing and growing a community around whatever it is that they do. And if you do that well, you’re never going to have to kind of search for clients. So, that, to me, it’s a critical element. It’s a great way for solopreneurs, small and midsized businesses, to differentiate themselves. If they can be the hub of a community that’s filled with people that they serve and people that serve them, they’re never going to go hungry.

Lee Kantor: [00:00:52] But when you’re building this community, it’s important to understand that this is not a top-down process. This is a bottom-up process. So, you have to build the community with the community. You cannot mandate a community to exist. You can create an ecosystem that has the possibility to build and kind of grow with from within. But you can’t kind of force people to be part of the community.

Lee Kantor: [00:01:21] So, I would look at your community more like a cohort where we’re all in this together, learning together from each other, and helping each other. Rather than this is me saying, “There should be a community and let’s all do this. Let’s all take this hill together.” It’s not that way anymore. It’s not a top-down hierarchy where you’re in the front of the room. I would encourage learning. I would encourage connecting. I would encourage working with each other. And instead of managing your community, encourage the community members to kind of all work together and lead themselves.

I was born in Vancouver British Columbia– and my parents moved to the US when I was an infant. I have grown up in Tucson– going to elementary school at Saints Peter & Paul- and then Salpointe Catholic HS- where I graduated in 1990. After HS graduation, I went on to the University of Arizona where I received my bachelor’s degree in General Business- and met my husband Sean. After graduating from the U of A, Sean and I were fortunate enough to travel many places around the world with his job.

When we returned, I began my career at Enterprise Rent a Car. I worked for Enterprise Rent A Car for about 14 years. During this time Sean and I started a family. Because of that, I changed to a position where I just marketed Insurance agents. 10 ½ years ago I left Enterprise– and came to Star Glass. Here at Star, I do the same thing- working hand in hand with the Insurance Agents here in Tucson. I have built a relationship with these offices over the last 20+ years. I enjoy working with them and helping them serve their clients.

I have 2 sons- ages 19 and 17. My life is filled with football, as my older son Colin plays football for the University of Montana. My younger son Dylan plays for Salpointe Catholic. I spend many hours volunteering, whether it be at the school, or for the football team. I enjoy traveling and spending time with my husband, children, and 2 dogs.

About the business:

Star Glass Company is a leader in glass repair and replacement throughout Tucson and Phoenix- and has been serving Arizona since 1998. We specialize in a variety of services, including auto, home, and commercial glass.

We uphold the integrity of our services not only through our unparalleled customer service but also by going the extra mile to obtain an Auto Glass Replacement Safety Standard (AGRSS) certification. The AGRSS Certification is a process that ensures our technicians are educated in the process of safe windshield replacement.

My name is Steve Hoeffner, and I am the General Manager and (part-owner) of the Star Glass Company.

I was born and raised in the Tucson community since 1970.

I have been married to my wife Angie for 28 years and we have three kids Steven 27, Chris 25, and Andrea 17, including 2 beautiful grandchildren. I am Native American and a member of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe.

I attended private Catholic education from 1st to 12th grade. I graduated from Salpointe Catholic High school in 1988.
After graduation, I decided to work in the Glass Industry full time and pursue a career after working part-time since 1986. I became a manager a few years later with a nationwide company.

I continued to manage several other large retail companies such as Speedy Glass and Harmon Glass up until 2007. The opportunity to become a partner with Star glass arose and I became part owner ever since. We have had an amazing run going on for 14 years and continue to grow and prosper every year. In 2017 we purchased National Glass in Tucson (locally owned) and increased our Commercial and Residential sales and also expanded our services into Phoenix. Our goal has always been “Service that Shines” and this culture is what separates us from our competition.

We have an incredible staff and technicians with many of them over 30-year experience which is monumental in providing the best customer service in town.
