All raptus choke via Van de Helm Transport in Maasdijk , with whom we have crop very well from the head start . They make certain that all trade is delivered to our clients on clip . Clients can also pick the craft up themselves if they require to . In the end , it ’s about taking work out of our bridge player . It saves travail , it saves hassle , and it lay aside a box . "
A bumpy startBut four years ago , 2019 , was n’t that the year Covid started ?

Without her , it just would n’t have exercise out . "
Lots of supportLindsey had no shortage of help and support when starting out . " When Covid was still at its heyday , my founding father came over from afield to assist out . My fellow jumps in regularly , and Erik and Jack are almost like a part of the business and are always there for me when needed . And then there is my former hirer , Jan - Willem van der Velden , and his married woman Patricia , who help oneself me with the bookkeeping every now and then and are always there to leave good advice .

What am I doing here ? I should do something else . ' I ended up at a wholesale job for nail stylists and had to work with only women . I thought I was going crazy . And before I knew it , I was back at the auction sale . "
" I have no estimation what the company will be like in five old age time . We will see when that time comes . But I do trust we ’ll still be here by that time and that I wo n’t have to work for a boss anymore . I ca n’t really imagine that . Not that I would n’t if I had to , because then I ’d have to . But it really is a different thing . Working for yourself is more fun and exciting . If it ’s up to me , I ’ll keep doing that for the time being , " Lindsey concludes .
