Today we’d like to introduce you to Mario Gonzalez.
Hi Mario, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I started this Business in 2017, started selling golf clubs in my house, we are know are 3 members my Wife Michelle and my Son Mario , we are selling 24/7 On our website ChipnPutt.com , Ebay Instagram Facebook Marketplace and we started 6 months ago selling Live auctions on Whatnot.
So how I started; first of all I have been playing golf for 44 years, I’m 49 now and I have seen so many clubs in my life rgat you can’t imagine, so when I got here in 2015 with my family i started selling part time and spend deliveries of food with instacart, by the end of 2016 I was ready to make the move to a full time and business owner and on January 2017 I Started ChipnPutt.com
We have multiple sources when supply golf clubs, we also do trade ins and would love to have one day a brick and mortar Golf Shop here in Chula Vista Area.
It’s hasn’t been easy but I love what I do so they keeps me going. I’m also a Scotty Cameron Collector, I love that brand very much and with this I have met a lot of fellow golfers and friends who I consider to be very good ones.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?

Yes of course they were here’s an advice, if you’re starting your own business go ahead and do it, if you have a passion for something take the chance and believe in yourself there’s always a way to get loans or funds to help start your business.
I can tell you that I prefer to be my own boss rather of being someone’s employee because one day you will no longer be needed and they will fire you in a hearbeat. So go and chase your dream! You only live once!
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
We Buy and Sell golf clubs, being 90% percent of them used we are also selling some clothing brands and working also with Headcover companies to start making our own brand by the end of this year we will have our first line of very unique and high quality Golf Headcovers!. Always looking to add New stuff to our website
Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
I always go beyond to satisfy our loyal customers, because of them I’m still on business and hopefully will be for many years! So thank you all of our customers and future ones!
