"Movers Who Care®"

Ever since Lisa began working at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK as a part-time bookkeeper while in college, she’s had a fascination with the numbers. The more she became involved with the business side of the franchise, the more she began to realize that motivating and encouraging people is the most effective way to influence numbers and outcomes. This realization was the beginning of a 20+ year career of coaching winning teams, growing sales, and leading the way in operational excellence at multiple franchises.

Over time, Lisa became general manager of four TWO MEN AND A TRUCK franchises and three satellite offices. Most recently, she accepted the position of president of the franchise group and became a franchisee herself. Even though Lisa has an active family, lifelong friendships, and a growing list of community commitments, she always manages to make time for her work family, as well. One staff member said, “Lisa leads by example and has coached and mentored me since day one, teaching me to trust in myself and modeling that trust by supporting my decisions. Lisa demonstrates a strong work ethic, but she also leads us toward a sustainable balance of work and life.”

Vanessa joined the TWO MEN team in 2014 and within her first year, was promoted into an assistant manager role, which she holds today. She says she enjoys the team she gets to work with and helping customers. She also likes that every day is something different! When she's not working, she enjoys spending time with her family. She is also an avid Green Bay Packers fan.

According to Austin’s co-workers, he truly embodies the core values of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK. He gives back to his community by coaching softball for high school students and donates his time to local charities, such as the Candy Cane Lane food drive. Always a friend to his teammates, Austin does much for others without talking about it or drawing attention to himself.

“When I first started, I wasn’t as strong,” Austin said. “As time went on, I gathered strength and the ability to become more patient with people and coworkers. Sometimes you can really grow through challenging situations—and that’s what you need to do as a worker and leader.”

Austin’s tenacity, willingness to ask questions, desire to learn, and quickness to step up to help in a wide variety of situations has earned him the respect of his peers and management. He won “Mover of the Year” for the franchise group in 2023, and soon after was promoted into an operations management role.

Austin said his favorite thing about working at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK is the chance to work with new people and new customers.

“I think I’ve worked with just about everyone in our franchise system by now,” he said. “I’ve traveled around Wisconsin and seen places I’ve never seen before. Each day, there’s a surprise.
