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 700 employees in 19 states. He's also invested in and owns 14 other businesses spanning various categories, including a vast and diversified real estate portfolio.

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, 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.

Mello has mastered the art of building and scaling companies. Drawing on this expertise, his new book Elevate (Mark Victor Hansen Library, 2023) provides readers with an invaluable blueprint to unlock significant growth potential in their business and keep employees engaged. With insights from a man who successfully took his own company beyond $200 million dollars Mello firmly believes that the key to achieving similar success lies in nurturing the right people.

With a track record of success, Tommy has the insights and strategies to help teams thrive. From accountability management to performance optimization for businesses, big or small, he's empowering organizations with his tried-and-true methods and changing many lives in the process.
