Amanda Curran, a combat veteran and former law enforcement officer, founded Apex Legal Support Services in Myrtle Beach to create a family-run business and legacy for her kids. Her worst experience was serving a foreclosure to an elderly, disabled couple, where the man threatened her with a gun—reinforcing the need to stay calm and involve police if necessary. Her best was locating and serving a man who had avoided service for nearly a decade, helping a client recover years of unpaid child support. Amanda built her business by marketing while driving for Uber/Lyft and values social media networking. Her advice: think outside the box, stay persistent, and push through slow periods. 00:00 Introduction to Process Server Daily 00:25 Amanda's Background & PI Origins 01:32 Starting Apex Legal Support Services 02:18 Family Influence & Running a Family Business 03:24 Worst Experience: Serving a Handicapped Homeowner 05:20 Handling Threats & Staying Professional 06:12 Lessons from Difficult Serves 07:10 Best Experience: Serving a Decade of Unpaid Child Support 08:45 How Persistence Beat Years of Failed Attempts 09:36 What Amanda Is Most Excited About: PI Certification & Social Media Networking 11:04 Social Media as the New Marketing Tool 12:02 Growing a Business Through Family & Future Hiring Goals 12:55 Mighty Process Servers Community Break 13:34 Rapid Fire Round Begins 13:42 Recommended App: Free Timestamp Camera 14:45 Best Case Tracking Software: ServeManager 15:22 Favorite Skip Tracing Tools: DelvePoint, Tracers & Social Media 16:48 Best Defense Tool 17:15 Recommended Book: The Power of Broke 18:00 Best Advice Ever Received 18:35 What Amanda Would Do With $100 and No Clients 19:55 Creative Marketing: Uber, Lyft & Networking on the Road 22:05 Final Advice for Struggling Servers 23:10 How to Connect With Amanda 23:40 Episode Conclusion
