Hidden Gems: Meet Justin Torres of Solar of Greater Orlando

Today we’d like to introduce you to Justin Torres. 

Hi Justin, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstories.
My journey began working in the sales force for 8 years prior to finding my way as a business owner. Throughout my career, I worked in various sales roles in different industries. Starting as a sales consultant and working my way up the ladder to sales management I always found that my creative interior allowed me to be most successful when working with different people and solving their problems with the product. Not just the product of material that was provided by the company I worked for but the product in the form of a gift I was born with. The gift of turning a stranger into family and most importantly a forever client. That gift has not only given me longevity in my sales career, but it has also opened the door for me to becoming an entrepreneur and business owner. To backtrack a bit to 2020 where this journey all started was when the pandemic hit. Alike most of families across the nation I was laid off by my employer at the time. Facing challenges that the pandemic brought to me and my family, I was motivated to outline my business plans. Being a father of 5 boys and knowing that time and money was most important, I started putting my business plans into action and finally taking that leap of faith. Now the owner and CEO of Solar of Greater Orlando, LLC, and co-owner of HomeFirst Energy Solutions, LLC, I can proudly say that I am blessed to continue serving families with that gift. Solar of Greater Orlando, LLC was launched in 2022 and it has been by far the best decision I have ever made. Serving families throughout Central Florida and all Surrounding Areas we are committed to providing world-class solar services while striving for excellence with our seamless buying process. Looking back and now into the future of this journey, I can say there have been so many lessons learned, and all for the better. I encourage anyone out there who is in the thought process of doing something for themselves to believe in what they want and just go for it! 

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
No road has ever been smooth, some have potholes, some have speed bumps and others have roadblocks but one thing I can say is that when I did go down a road with any intentions of distraction I stayed focus on the end goal and never looked into that review mirror. 

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?

How do you define success?
Success to me means being able to leave my impact on those who know me and may not when I’m no longer around.
