La Voz Newspapers recently began featuring Hispanic-owned start-up businesses within their pages on a monthly basis for the sake of repairing statistics that indicate that 44 percent of all start-up businesses will throw in the towel within the first four years of launching. The newspaper introduces the owners of brimming new businesses and successful long-standing businesses to the public, and uses their business knowledge to unveil the secrets of longevity and perseverance in an economy that makes independent ventures seem downright horrifying. The Montealgres, who own Chris and Phil's Body Shop, kept their business afloat by seeing the benefits of true team work, business knowledge and not being afraid to put family and friends to work for a good cause.

Scrubbs Cleaning Inc., established in March 2013, was built from the ground up using hard work -pun intended. Often on hands and knees, scrubbing and grinding against grime, or perched high, wiping and dusting against grit, Devin Escobar, his cousin Evelyn Marcia, and her boyfriend, Oscar Azucar do this "domestic" work with purpose, pride and intention.
