August 28, 2006 Silver Bullet Featured in the
Star Tribune
On August 28th, 2006, Silver Bullet was featured in
the Star Tribune. The article, “Small Business:
The fine art of home renovation,” discussed Terry
and Gary’s fine arts training and background,
and how it has helped them grow and manage a successful
design and build remodeling firm. It also covered Silver
Bullet’s rebound after the market downturn that
began about two years ago.
In the article, Terry and Gary credit their artistic
sensibilities as one of the tools that has helped Silver
Bullet stand out in a competitive industry. Another
tool is their ability to communicate with others, a
skill they also developed while studying fine arts
at the University of Minnesota.
The industry downturn was initially a challenge for
Silver Bullet. However we came back strong and are
heading towards our best year yet.
We would like to thank the writer Todd Nelson and
the Star Tribune for taking the time to interview and
photograph Terry and Gary and for the great article
on Silver Bullet.
