Blaine Tanner: Entrepreneurship, Structured Finance, and Community-Minded Thinking
Welcome to Blaine Tanner's personal blog. Blaine Tanner, based in Arizona, spent decades building companies from the ground up, including scaling a plastics manufacturing business from $500,000 to $25 million in annual revenue over ten years before selling it. He later managed an investment fund focused on long-term lease assets, bringing structured financial projects to Wall Street. This blog is where those hard-earned perspectives find a home.
One thread runs through nearly every post here: what it actually takes to build something that lasts. Blaine brings the lens of a third-degree black belt and a career defined by starting over, adapting, and executing with discipline. That's the kind of thinking you'll find on every page.
