Terrible management, misuse of donor funds, and unpaid contractors are just a handful of the atrocities committed by the CEO, Board Chair, and the Head of Global Operations (they only operate in the US).
They will withhold pay for work done and force you to jump through hoops to recoup the money through the courts.
Much appreciation for LTE. I have participated in the Friday coaching calls, which gives me the opportunity to learn from other entrepreneurs, network, and "get some direction" when things get hectic. For me, it is a good a break from the "hustle and bustle" being an entrepreneur to take some time for the "self care" of one's business.
In a world where information is everywhere, The Lonely Entrepreneur nailed it by providing entrepreneurs a one stop shop for all their questions. The ongoing support is priceless and the ability to execute such a comprehensive platform is impressive. If you’re an entrepreneur or in the business of helping them, get to know TLE.
The work that The Lonely Entrepreneur has done to help entrepreneurs is incredible. The ongoing support across all business and personal issues entrepreneurs face is extremely hard to find in a single place. TLE has done it and continues to raise the bar when it comes to empowering entrepreneurs with skills and tools they need to succeed. Keep up the amazing work!
The Lonely Entrepreneur (TLE) is filling a void of providing all entrepreneurs with the knowledge, tools and support they need to be successful. Of note, is the organization's focus on underserved minority business owners, the unique and special challenges they face and providing them the resources to help them grow their businesses through a dynamic SaaS platform that is always available, 24/7, as well as on online community, group coaching and custom programs and content for its funding partners. TLE is supported by major corporations, philanthropies, academic institutions, sports organizations and financial institutions that understand small business accounts for more than half of our economy and recognize that the success and diversity of entrepreneurs is a vital engine to sustained economic growth.
I am extremely impressed with the commitment and effort of The Lonely Entrepreneur, including their Black Entrepreneur Initiative. Their mission and plan are the perfect vehicles for encouraging and promoting careers and thus jobs within the Black community. Moreover, as we lament the lack of wealth creation opportunities within the Black community, there is no better remedy than assuring more successful Black business owners by providing a roadmap for sustaining the success of those businesses. That is what The Black Entrepreneur Initiative does. This organization has been extremely beneficial and successful in stated goals.
This organization truly believes in empowering entrepreneurs with keys to success. The TLE program is absolutely invaluable. I highly recommend it!
In addition to the glowing reference from my husband, Mitch Wolinsky of Manolo's Best, I would add that the entire TLE team is incredibly generous and brilliant when it comes to a source of great advice and development. I happen to be on other nonprofit boards and at times I have needed the help of Michael Dermer's expertise. He has reviewed documents for me on a pro bono basis because he knows he's helping other worthy nonprofits to succeed. I have to call this out because few people are as generous and kind. Michael and his team are genuine and authentic. They really want you to succeed!! It doesn't get better than that.
If you want to be able to feel more secure about what you're doing, I encourage all entrepreneurs to check out The Lonely Entrepreneur. The wealth of information, the sense of community and the development you will experience will make it incredibly worthwhile!

The work that TLE is doing in the community is amazing. Please support the good work they are doing.
This is an incredible learning community that has thoughtfully and very meticulously considered the needs of aspiring or practicing entrepreneurs. Anyone who is interested in succeeding in business would do well to connect with the Lonely Entrepreneur community. The advocacy and support granted through sponsorships are both genius and commendable.
The Lonely Entrepreneur’s Learning Community is the answer. The ability to have one place to get all your answers and ongoing support when it comes to being an entrepreneur is priceless. If you want to successfully grow your business, TLE is the way to go!
My experience with The Lonely Entrepreneur began as a hope and prayer, in that I mean -was there someplace our underfunded yet high potential food manufacturing business could get the knowledge and advisory services to help us get to the next level and survive while doing so!
Upon getting connected with Michael Dermer, he explained how an overtasked leadership team could band together and create success with less stress and fear and exhaustion.
After all, it is fear that surrounds everyday of the entrepreneurial journey.
The modules that are offered on the TLE platform offer a guide to everything from accounting to marketing in easy to watch videos that we learned together as a team. The learning modules compliment what we brought to the table individually and created a sense of teamwork and morale that had been absent.
Michael's coaching compelled us to consider some hard decisions we otherwise would have avoided. Sometimes a team needs an objective perspective to create movement and progress and that is what actually happened.
Our team at Manolo's Best Farmstand Chili and Soups highly recommend the team at The Lonely Entrepreneur. They helped us achieve growth, both personally and as a business!
We encourage any business that is at a critical juncture or possibly at a crossroads to engage TLE for assistance.
