To The Top Equipment
Guest: Brennen & Mackenzie (“Kinsey”) Silveous, TTT Equipment
Host: Alison Shores
Camden County natives Brennen and Kinsey Silveous share the scrappy, faith-driven path that led to TTT Equipment. Brennen’s first venture—high-school real-estate drone videos—pivoted to mobile detailing, then to powder coating, where he bought two buildings at 19 before ultimately selling the coating operation to launch TTT Equipment. Today they focus on skid-steer services, dump-trailer rentals, site prep, concrete tear-out, storm clean-up, brush cutting, material hauling, and processing broken concrete into rip-rap for erosion control.
Kinsey runs the books, customer communications, and social media—while parenting, attending school, and helping fuel a service-first culture. The couple talks candidly about cash-flow realities, calculated risk, community outreach (including hurricane relief work), and mentoring young employees. Their message to would-be founders: do it afraid—just take smart, informed steps.
Summary Highlights
Camden Roots: Both were raised in/around Camden; active with The Harbor church and the local small-business community.
Entrepreneurial Journey:
High-school drone videography → mobile detailing → powder coating (shop purchase at 19) → sold equipment → TTT Equipment.
Pivots driven by market shifts (e.g., hot real-estate market reducing need for listing videos) and sustainability of overhead.
What TTT Equipment Does Now:
Skid-steer work & site preparation (residential).
Concrete tear-out & removal, plus recycling into rip-rap.
Storm clean-up / debris clearing, brush cutting, land clearing.
Material hauling and dump-trailer rentals (can also haul off appliances/odd jobs on request).
Hurricane Relief & Community Heart: Partnered with churches and sponsors to clear ~200 trees in a single relief weekend; committed to being ready for local needs.
Customer Experience: “Answer the phone, make it happen.” Aim for white-glove communication and follow-through.
Team & Mentorship: Employ and mentor young workers; “raise up the next generation.”
Real Talk on Small Business: Not instant wealth—requires research, organization, and relentless adaptation.
Kinsey’s Role: Books, social, client care—plus school and mom life; proof you can build and learn at the same time.
Rapid Fire Fun: Favorite Camden eats—LongHorn (ranch lovers!), coffee vs. tea (Kinsey = coffee; Brennen = tea).
