Brothers build on success

After 20 years of providing Vancouver Island with both interior and exterior painting service, Saanich’s Clint Kennedy, the founder and director of field operations for Van Isle Paint Inc., realized he had more to offer the paint market.

After vetting the market through family, colleagues and local residents, Clint believes that with the help of a competent team, he could address what he has identified as a “niche in the marketplace.”

“Once I had a clear vision, I knew there was only one person to consult, Glen Smethurst,” said Clint.

A Victoria resident, Smethurst is a Vancouver-based marketing executive, who is well versed in patterns and predictive analytics.

Smethurst notes that he and his brother Clint had numerous discussions on how to build and execute a client-centric painting company to serve the marketplace of Victoria and Vancouver Island.

The brothers reminisce that these brainstorming sessions continued for months as Van Isle Paint Inc. was defined, registered, insured and launched. One year later, Van Isle Paint is rapidly becoming a household name.

The brothers credit their success to efficient due-diligence and patience. Gathering accurate information about their clients’ expectations, needs, budget and schedule is the foundational basis of each client’s success story with Van Isle Paint.
