Join us for an incredible episode of The Garage Door Heroes Podcast, hosted by Robb Leishman!
Our special guest for this episode is none other than Tommy Mello, the renowned owner and operator of A1 Garage Door Service and the host of the Home Service Expert podcast.
Tommy Mello's Bio: With 70% of businesses failing due to lack of funding or debt, Tommy Mello, an entrepreneurial powerhouse, beat these odds when he transformed a one-man garage door service with $50,000 in debt into a thriving venture worth over $200M with over 750 employees in 21 states.
But that's not all. He's also invested in and owns 14 other businesses spanning various categories. Today, Tommy is a leading voice on entrepreneurship and small business and regularly shares his insights in publications like Inc., Forbes, and Entrepreneur. Not only does he host The Home Service Expert podcast, which ranks among the top 0.1 % of all podcasts, but he's also a genuine embodiment of the American dream.
Coming from humble beginnings with his parents working three jobs to provide for him, his entrepreneurship journey began early, learning from mowing lawns to shoveling snow.
But it wasn't until he met his college roommate that his fate changed, not through a business class, but with a suggestion to start painting garage doors, eventually expanding to fixing and installing them to now owning A-1 Garage, the national leader in the garage door service and sales industry.
