Not surprisingly, Jeremiah Johnson
began his first peek into the world of free enterprise at an early
age, growing up in an entrepreneurial family in a rural community of
North Carolina. Upon graduating Alleghany High School in 1999, he
attended Surry Community College and Western Carolina University;
only to realize his true passion and inspirations were destined for
other forthcoming personal pursuits.
After dropping out
of pre-med school, Jeremiah immediately began pursuit of his dreams.
He launched his first successful startup business, which was a
regional advertising company that he sold nine months later. That
first burst of success ignited a hunger to express his naturally
inventive and creative talents, which led Mr. Johnson to join a
highly recognized International Mergers and Acquisitions company.
While there, he gained the hands-on experience that was necessary to
learn how the most successful corporations operated, excelled and
profited to their maximum potential. This sought-after motivation
was the stepping stone for his next endeavor, Etomic
Companies.
ETOMIC
fueled the hunger for what would become a portfolio of companies,
beginning in 2001 with the first secure file management and sharing
application; a creative marketing, design (EtomicMarketing) and
interactive hosting company (EtomicHosting) and a social networking
music community in 2008 (YouTunes). Also under the umbrella of ETOMIC
came the creation of Carports.com,
which became the number one retailer in the United States for
outdoor steel products, later resulting with its acquisition in 2008
and another division again in 2010. Jeremiah Johnson propelled the company to an impressive $40M
in annual sales within 36 months, including popular destination
websites such as Carports.com,
Barns.com, MetalGarages.com,
and QuickCanopies.com,
among others.
While in the steel
industry, Jeremiah traveled to China and began his own steel brand,
including engineering a new product line with unique patent pending
features. Within a short time, he discovered that his invention
would bring heavy demand when it hit the US marketplace in 2007.
That same year, Mr. Johnson became managing partner of Steel Lending
Network Inc., a nationwide lending company that financed residential
consumers in the steel industry within the continental US
marketplace.
In addition to these
impressive accolades, Mr. Johnson has hands-on involvement in the
nanotechnology research and development marketplace, real estate
development, social applications, and geographic relevance
technology. More recently founded
several new innovative patent-pending inventions; a new
telecommunications company (TalkTones), and a social shopping
company (GroovyDo) powered by GeoDex Search.
Mr. Johnson has
founded and exited ten ventures successfully before thirty
years of age, has multiple patents pending and is currently
attending Harvard Business School for Intellectual Property and
Business Strategy, while running his latest endeavors. Apart from being a
highly ambitious, Jeremiah Johnson is a devoted partner, friend and
businessman. He is an avid exotic car owner and enthusiast who
enjoys traveling and spending time on the glorious sunny Florida
coastline, where he now resides. Of course, he never stops dreaming,
creating and implementing the next startup.
