Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in marketing but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Max Hennessy, Founder of TMH Business Solutions, located in Raleigh, NC, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

My business is a full-service digital marketing company that specializes in website creation and design. My customers vary greatly in terms of industries such as apparel, sporting goods, influencers, and a handful of other industries. However, all of my customers are small business owners.

Tell us about yourself

I have liked to think of myself as a lifelong entrepreneur since I started my first company in high school. I started TMH Business Solutions after I founded Icy Threads LLC. With Icy Threads, I learned the basics of web design and digital marketing. I observed that many business owners in my local area had weak or no digital presence, which led me to start TMH to help small business owners establish an online presence.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My biggest accomplishment as a business owner actually stems from my first company: HR Video Games. I learned so much about interacting with customers, sellers, and the general public that would prove to be invaluable in my next business ventures. Ergo, I would have to say my biggest accomplishment is just taking that first step in creating my first company.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

I think loneliness/isolation is by far the hardest thing about being a business owner. There's no manager to turn to when things go south, so it's important to have a good support system at home.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Start your business with a partner or co-founders!
  2. Find an underserved niche market to start your business.
  3. Focus on your customer's happiness because no customers = no business.
