Previous Ventures
At 21, Siegel purchased his first piece of real estate and embarked on his first solo venture, founding Prestige Motors, a one-bay mechanical auto repair shop which he repositioned as a collision center, generating annual sales of over $2 million. Six years later Siegel sold this business, using the proceeds to acquire a majority stake in Uncle Howie Products, a struggling business involved in the manufacturing of children’s upholstered furniture. The company was immediately restructured under Siegel who used his business know-how to expand operations and increase sales and efficiency. He successfully negotiated, secured and managed licensing for brands such as NickelodeonNickelodeon (TV channel)
