As the song goes, "Don't you step on my blue suede shoes." But for people like Marvin Staten and his wife and partner, Shelley, the more scrapes and scuffs the better. Staten is the owner of a Heel Sew Quik! shoe repair franchise in Greenville, N.C.
Prior to opening his own business, Staten spent 15 years working at Procter & Gamble, the Ohio-based international manufacturing and retail company. As a production line leader and manufacturing coordinator, Staten earned a respectable salary of $42,000. Today, he's grossing over $150,000 fixing wing tips and pumps.
