Description

In this episode of How I Rent It, we’re joined by Dave and Sada Gallick, the husband-and-wife duo behind D & S Party Tents in Wisconsin. Their story is the perfect example of how a simple side hustle can grow into a successful full-time tent rental business.

What started as a way to earn extra income turned into a thriving family tent rental company that’s been serving their community for over 13 years. Even better? Their kids are part of the journey too — growing up alongside the business and learning the ropes of the event rental industry.

Dave and Sada share what it takes to start your own rental business while balancing full-time jobs, how to work together as a couple, and why they wouldn’t trade this life for anything. They also talk about the challenges and rewards of running a family-owned tent rental company and how to keep clients coming back.

If you’re thinking about starting your own tent rental company, growing your event rental business, or taking your side hustle full time, this episode is packed with real-world advice and encouragement from people who’ve been right where you are now.
