    • Michelle Hanchey

      Jan 1979 - now
      Owner

      As a cutting-edge entrepreneur, Michelle Hanchey is engaging, energetic, and full of enthusiasm. She has a proven track record of providing motivational speeches and training for a variety of organizations including the National Association of Professional Women, UPS, Home Depot, and Coca-Cola. Described as, “high-energy”, “funny”, and “passionate” she delivers specific customized business content. You can bet Michelle will keep you on your toes when she asks you, "What's in Your Toolbox?"At age 26, she traded her microphone as an evening news anchor for an ABC affiliate for a hard-hat. Her first multi-million dollar company was an award-winning construction firm, with homes featured in Southern Living, Southern Homes, and Southern Accent. In addition, she was the featured builder for the Street of Dreams, and garnered a 6 page spread in the Atlanta Journal for her “Working Woman’s Home”. Though it has been over 35 years since she started her first company, Michelle never forgot and continues to apply the lessons learned from building homes to all her business ventures. Knowing that like a home a company needs a good foundation she has built three major business ventures from the ground into multi-million dollar international companies. Show less
