Carmelo got his start as an entrepreneur as a franchisee with College Pro. He built on that experience to start his own house painting franchise and grow it to 130 locations across North America. Find out how he started and scaled his business in this interview.

Starting through the College Pro program opened the door for Carmelo to become a business owner without a huge upfront investment. It also gave him handson experience in doortodoor sales and introduced him to the exterior house painting industry. He’ll share his biggest lessons from this first entrepreneurial venture, along with some surprising ways it’s helped him to grow Spray Net.

The key to Spray Net’s success is their unique painting techniques. Carmelo developed his own paint formula after being told by industry experts that what he wanted to do wasn’t possible. He’ll talk through the steps to develop his unique exterior painting solution and how it gives him an advantage over his competition.

Carmelo was still in school, and still running his College Pro franchise, while developing Spray Net. That’s a lot to juggle at once! He’ll share the strategies he used to stay organized and manage his time when he first launched the business. We’ll also hear how his daytoday life has changed now that Spray Net is an international franchise. Organization and systems are just as important for a business as for its owner, and he’ll explain how he developed scalable, replicable systems that set Spray Net franchisees up for success.
