Tour Bus CEO: "I Bought 12 Buses In COVID. Now Beyoncé's Crew Rides With Us" | Ep. 451 with Rich Thomson Founder of Dreamliner Luxury Coaches
In this Founder’s Story episode, Daniel Robbins sits down with Rich Thomson, founder of Dreamliner and Caprice Capital Partners, to unpack how he went from helping his parents in their family-owned yogurt shops to building one of the leading entertainment transportation companies in the live touring industry. Rich shares why he bought 12 entertainer coaches during COVID when live entertainment was shut down, how that risk turned into a fleet of more than 225 coaches and 70+ trucks, and why direct founder-to-founder acquisitions helped him scale. The conversation covers risk, M&A, profitability, client service, people, logistics, finance, entrepreneurship, giving back, and why being the best matters more than being the biggest.
