CEO
Getting the job done efficiently and effectively. That’s what drove Chris Peterson to create Blue Collar Text in 2026. Having worked in water treatment for more than 20 years, he saw contractors lose jobs by not having the time to answer their phones because they were busy on the job. He saw a need to help service professionals and skilled technicians run the client scheduling and management side of their businesses and figured out how to solve it.
In his free time, Chris volunteers with several New Jersey organizations, enjoys hiking, scuba diving and traveling - having visited 46 states. He and his wife, Alison, are proud of their son and daughter who are both studying abroad, and their rescue dog, Blackjack, who is the unofficial mayor of their East Hanover neighborhood.
