Nick Bogacz is a true testament of a self-made small business success story. In the beginning, he worked for three separate pizza companies, either running the shop or delivering the goods, all while counting money at the Civic Arena during Pittsburgh Penguins games at night AND working as a mailman for the post office...a place, as Nick summarizes, "where dreams go to die."
Fast-forward to today. Nick has put working five jobs and over 90 hours a week in the past and has built an internationally-known pizza empire with five destinations, multiple awards and accolades, and over $10M in annual revenue.
Nick's passion for building small business success stories reaches far beyond his pizza brand. In 2018, he put pen to paper and authored his first book - an accomplishment that's led to numerous speaking engagements, including the keynote speech at a food industry trade show.
While continuing to oversee his thriving enterprise, Nick hosts The Business Equation Podcast, a weekly show where he speaks to entrepreneurs and business professionals at all stages of their journey. Each episode features guests who have "walked the walk" and bring value to everyone who listens. His goal is to give back to the small business community and help everyone understand the mindset it takes to succeed in today's world.
Thanks to his powerful mindset and savvy business accumen, Nick has made appearances on FOX NEWS, NewsMax, The Bloomberg Network, and numerous podcasts and videos, sharing his thoughts and visions on building a successful enterprise.
