SellMax is a used car buying company based out of San Diego. One of its founders, Sean Pour, has over 10 years of experience in the car business. When he was just 14 years old, he created a website to help his father sell used cars. From there, Sean taught himself how to manage the used car business.
The company is simple: a seller first must provide the website with some necessary information. What condition the car is in, what year it is, the model, and many other minor yet important details. From there, the company experts can evaluate the car based on the little information that you have given. After the evaluation, they reach out with the best cash offer for your old vehicle. It’s that simple! On the website, it states that no matter what kind of car, they will “find a home for a fair, competitive price.” The company has received great feedback from its customers and doesn’t seem to be slowing down anytime soon.
This is a very good example of a young entrepreneur! I think it is really cool that he did all of that at the age of 14 just for his dad’s company. Not to mention the fact that it has grown to be so successful! I am curious as to what else went on in the makings of the company but I really like the idea!
It’s incredible that he was able to create a website to help his dad’s business at only 14. He was also able to use that experience and exposer of the used car industry to help him be successful in the future.
