Tony Huml: An Entrepreneur's Expertise

Huml's Studio

Tony Huml, creator of Local Vision TV.com, originated from a rich and diverse background, leading him to his eventual entrepreneurship.  Huml earned a degree in secondary education, and he taught in the School District of Janesville for 10 years; in the process, he instrumentally helped with starting the Rock River Charter School. 

During that time, Huml worked for a local media company for five years, honing his marketing skills.  For over ten years, Huml moonlighted in video production with his side business called Remember When.  About three years ago, Huml realized a niche to be filled in our community with a lack of local coverage from a TV news station.  Noticing the spike in the use of online video and social media, Huml pursued his vision for a local online television network. 
  
Local Vision TV.com launched on October 1, 2010, and, on October 21, 2010, it won the first annual Rock County 5.0 Accelerate Your Business Plan Contest.  In just a little over two years, LVTV grew from three employees to nine employees.  They launched with just 50 videos on the site; today, the site contains over 5000. With over 3,000 fans on Facebook, the popularity of Local Vision TV.com continues to multiply with every passing day.  With a recent celebration of the 100th news episode, Huml gazes toward the future with bright hopes for the continuing success of his online TV news station.
