Owner – Mechanic

Champion Napolitano always had dreams of owning his own business. As a youngster, he would go with his great grandmother to the flea market to help her sell her doyleys and other crafts she would make. He also would bring his unused toys and sell them with her crafts. In sixth grade, he lived next to a candy store in Freeland PA and would frequent the store and purchase candy and other items. He would make little care packages out of the items and sell them at school to his classmates.

As a teenager, he formed a passion for cars because of his grandfather. He would help him rebuild engines, clean the cars, change brakes, and tune them in a little 1 bay house garage in Shickshinny PA. Before he could even drive he got his first car a 1977 Buick Skylark. It needed work and he would work on it at all hours and go to the junkyard for parts with his grandpa and fix it up over about a two year period. He even got in trouble a bit from grandma for bringing a transmission into the house bedroom and other items that were better suited in a garage but he didn’t have one of his own. He finally could drive and drove that beloved Skylark to school and work. He built it a little too fast for a youngster and ended up wrecking it but never wrecked his passion for cars. During this time he worked at call centers and quickly became a directors assistant at the age of 17 and learned computers at that job. He then landed a job at a big internet company and learned a lot about how the internet worked, email, and websites. He also worked at AutoZone as a parts pro and built up his customer skills even more and car knowledge. He also worked there for the parts discounts for his rides. =P

The reason I say all this is because with his life experiences he started to work on friends cars on the side to help them save money. This took off and it became what it is today which is On The Go Garage LLC. His experiences in sales at a young age, various customer service skills jobs and knowledge of the internet allowed him to build the business website. It helped him market the business on the internet. It helped him treat customers fairly and strives to make them happy customers every day. All of this knowledge allowed him to build the business without a lot of overhead to outside companies. This, in turn, helps the customers save BIG. He is always growing and building and couldn’t do it without his customers that he loves so much!
