'You ever heard that quote about the bumblebee flying? The one that goes, “Aerodynamically, the bumblebee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn't know that so it flies anyway.”
I feel like Tommy Mello didn’t get the memo that a garage door company traditionally caps around 10 Million.
When he was growing his company, Tommy looked around for inspiring models he could replicate and didn’t find much from the other garage door companies in the market. So instead of accepting industry norms, he looked elsewhere.
And now he’s sailing past 200 Million in revenue and says it’s just the beginning.
Watch the full episode to learn about the 5 game changers that Tommy attributes to his unusual growth.
