Get the guide and learn the three secrets that take entrepreneurs from operator to owner.
Most leaders go from fired up to burning out carrying everything themselves. They get in their own way, whether starting out or running an established company.
the steps

That’s how your business becomes an asset someone would actually buy. That’s why we developed the systems you need for each step of your company’s journey.
I started my Garage Door company with $50K in debt and learned the hard way. I made all the mistakes in the book, working 80+ hours every week.
I had no industry leader to look up to, so in 2017 when we reached $25M in revenue, I decided it was time to share all with other home service entrepreneurs.
Since then, I have become a best-selling author, a top 0.1% podcast host, an Inc Magazine columnist, and a keynote speaker, and my garage door company has grown to $200M with over 700 employees in 19 states.
You don’t succeed to support your business.

Our vision is for our members to become the pinnacle of success in the home service industry through access to exclusive discounts, resources and training.






Partnering with TMV has been one of the best decisions we’ve made, as their team provides unparalleled support whenever needed while allowing us the freedom to operate independently. We truly appreciate their trust and continued commitment to our success.
Partnering with TMV has been an absolute game changer for us. The resources and guidance has helped us to scale far beyond what we might have achieved on our own. The team at TMV is amazing and we love working with them to continue our growth. They are always thinking of ways to help us scale, and implementing ideas along the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner. Not only that, you’re able to collaborate with other companies under TMV and pool resources as well.
Working with Tommy Mello and the team at TMV has been the best decision our company could have made. I was looking for more than just capital infusion, I was looking for a team that could support me. They have gone above and beyond to help us realize our goals. I love working with them and would recommend them to any company that wants to partner with the best.
Tommy is predictably awesome in his approach to marketing and customer service…His consulting helped my in-house SEO/marketing team create a five-star SEO ranking system that now attracts over 45,000 organic hits to our website per month.
The answer is Tommy. He is unique in that he isn't some guy who found success and then got out while he was ahead. He's still right there in the trenches every day, adapting and changing alongside the industry itself, and the information he offers in this book is indispensable if you're looking to grow profitably today's challenging business climate.
The book is filled with incredible marketing tips, performance metrics to measure. An instrumental A to Z on how to launch a home service business. We think it's a must-have.
“What sets this book apart is Mello’s no-fluff fusion of personal stories—like his team’s voluntary sacrifices during crises—with actionable pillars on leadership, culture, marketing, recruiting, and systems, making it a rare read that feels like a fireside chat with a battle-tested mentor rather than a dry textbook”
