About
Acclaimed entrepreneur and author, Thomas Minieri ventured into the crazy world of entrepreneurship a broke artist in his mid-twenties, having just $30 to his name. Through persistence and determination, he grew his business to seven-figures annual revenue and beyond within seven years, all without startup capital, without investors or funding, and without taking on any debt. His business model was so successful that he franchised his company and, within four years, sold twenty-three franchise territories in six states. His company employed over fifty professionals and revenues surpassed $12 million. After a seven-figure exit strategy, Thomas took time off to recharge and spend with family, then set out on a new mission to empower and equip other entrepreneurs with the knowledge and tools they need to succeed, through his business education brand, Lemonade Maker! Thomas is a long-standing member of the Young Entrepreneur Council, a Forbes contributing author, and has been featured in Business 2 Community, Inc, Mashable, Readwrite, and BuiltIn.
