About the Winner

The thing we love about Steve Phelan is that he runs not one, but two seven-figure businesses out of his Houston, Texas home. His company, ESP Enterprises, Inc., installs fare collection equipment on buses across the U.S., and amazingly has little competition.

Like other Best Financial Performers, he's found a great niche to focus on. He's built relationships with every manufacturer that sells equipment so that he's the go-to resource to get the units installed. Amazingly he's adding to ESP Enterprises the construction of cell towers building them from the ground up.

You could say, he's not intimidated by much. His second seven-figure home-based business is ESP Staffing where again he's forged close relationships with bigname companies like HP.

This guy is one hot entrepreneur, and we expect him to break it even bigger in the years ahead.

And you thought "home-based" meant your revenue generating potential would be limited... well think again.
