About Toledo Tools

Hi! My name is Nick Hartman I wanted to tell you a little bit about myself and our company. My background is computer graphics, web design, product branding, and anything that has to do with technology.

I understand what it takes to make you feel comfortable purchasing from a company online and what it takes to keep you as a loyal customer through customer service and dependable products. We want to show you products in the manner as if you were viewing the product in a store. As we progress you will be able to view the images as if it was in front of you.

In late 2005, I met the owner of that small tool company at a pool tournament for the APA league. Over the weekend we had discussed our professions, where I was a bartender and a freelancer straight out of the University of Toledo and he sold tools on eBay out of his home. Time had passed didn’t really think anything more about it. Then some time later I had ran into the owner of again. We had discussed me revamping his existing ad’s, making them look professional instead of having the feel of someone selling out of their garage. After a few hundred ad’s later it appeared the work I had done increased sales by about 20%. In 2006 I started selling his tools and products on my own website. Things started off kind of slow but had finally started to pick up a little.

After about a year I was starting to do well. Then in late 2007 the small tool company that was growing saw the potential and I came aboard full time. Creating several brands that took off very well. Being engrossed in the Tool industry and many different product lines later. I acquired a lot of knowledge about customer service, purchasing, shipping, accounting, marketing, everything that has to do with transitioning a small business into a big business. I love what I do. As time passed I became the General Manager of that company but my path of progression had come to an end. Many rises and a few falls, 10 years later now Toledo Tools sits in front of you now. I wanted to create a customer experience that I can control and put the passion into business for myself and my family and help you the customer through an easy and positive online experience.
