We recently connected with Giuseppe Garcia-Salamone and have shared our conversation below.
Giuseppe, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today So, naming is such a challenge. How did you come up with the name of your brand?
Naming a business is indeed a Herculean task; it’s like trying to find that one unique name in a sea of commonalities, a name that not only resonates with what you stand for but also has a ring to it that sticks, right?
Well, the genesis of “Tentho” is deeply rooted in a philosophy that I hold dear. It’s inspired by the famous Thomas Edison quote, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” Now, imagine being so relentless in your pursuit, so unyielding in your vision that you are willing to find those 10,000 ways that won’t work just to find the one that does. It’s almost poetic, isn’t it?
So, when it came to naming our company, I knew it had to embody this spirit of relentless pursuit, of innovation, and of not being afraid to fail. Thus, “Tentho” was born, a playful nod to the 10,000 attempts, a name that carries the essence of perseverance, innovation, and the joy of finding that one way that works amidst the 10,000 that don’t.
It’s more than just a name; it’s a mantra, a reminder to our team that every failure is but a step closer to success, a testament to our adventurous spirit in the world of business. It’s a name that says, “Hey, we are not afraid to try, to experiment, to forge our own path.” It’s a name that smiles in the face of adversity and says, “Is that all you’ve got?”
So yes, naming is hard, but when you stumble upon the right one, it just clicks, it resonates, and you know in your gut that it’s the one. And for us, “Tentho” was that eureka moment, a name that carries the weight of ten thousand trials and the brilliance of that one victorious attempt.
I hope this response captures the vibrant spirit and the story behind “Tentho.” Let me know if there’s anything you’d like to add or change!

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

Alright – let’s talk about marketing or sales – do you have any fun stories about a risk you’ve taken or something else exciting on the sales and marketing side?
Oh, this takes me back to a moment that was nothing short of electrifying! Picture this: EMerge last year, a buzzing hub of brilliant minds and vibrant energies, and there we were, the Tentho team, ready to introduce the conference visitors to an experience that was set to be a game-changer.
We decided to take a leap into the future and created #TenthoMeta, a virtual reality room that was not just a booth but a portal to a world of limitless possibilities. The idea was audacious, to say the least. We were venturing into uncharted territory, bringing a virtual reality experience to a business conference. But we at Tentho are no strangers to taking risks; it’s practically our middle name!
As visitors stepped into our space, they were transported into a virtual room where our finance experts were ready and waiting, beaming in from all corners of the US. It was like stepping into a futuristic world where distances didn’t matter, where expertise was just a virtual step away. The room buzzed with curiosity, questions flew in from all directions, and our experts navigated the sea of inquiries with grace and expertise, offering insights and solutions to a myriad of business needs.
The energy was palpable, the excitement infectious. We were not just answering questions; we were building connections, fostering relationships, and creating a buzz that resonated throughout the conference. It felt like we had brought a piece of the future to the present, breaking barriers and forging connections in a virtual space that was as real and vibrant as the physical one.
As I stood there, witnessing the magic unfold, I felt a surge of pride, a realization that we had dared to dream, dared to disrupt, and created an experience that was not just innovative but revolutionary. The buzz grew, word spread like wildfire, and #TenthoMeta became the talk of the conference, a virtual space where business met innovation, where questions met answers, and where the future met the present.
Looking back, I can still feel the electric energy, the buzz of excitement, and the joy of seeing faces light up as they experienced the #TenthoMeta. It was not just a marketing win; it was a testament to Tentho’s spirit of innovation, a spirit that dares to dream, to disrupt, and to deliver experiences that are truly out of this world.
Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?
At the core of Tentho’s journey to building a solid reputation in the market is our deep-seated belief in education. You see, I am an educator at heart, and this philosophy has been the cornerstone of our approach to business.
From the very beginning, we have been committed to not just offering services but educating our clients, helping them understand the intricacies of financial management, and empowering them with the knowledge to make informed decisions. Our approach has always been to go beyond the numbers, to delve deep into the stories behind those numbers, and to offer insights that are grounded in a deep understanding of the financial landscape.
But it goes beyond just educating our clients. We have fostered a culture of continuous learning within our team, a culture that encourages curiosity, exploration, and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. This has enabled us to stay ahead of the curve, to be at the forefront of industry innovations, and to offer solutions that are not just innovative but revolutionary.
Our educational approach extends to our marketing strategies as well. Take, for instance, our #TenthoMeta experience at EMerge, where we created a virtual reality space that was not just a marketing tool but an educational hub, a space where visitors could connect with experts and gain insights that were both valuable and educational.
This commitment to education has resonated with our clients, creating a trust and a reputation that goes beyond just services. It has built a community of clients who see us not just as their accounting firm but as their partners in growth, their mentors in financial management, and their guides in the complex world of business.
I believe that our reputation in the market is a reflection of this educational spirit, a testament to our commitment to empowering our clients with knowledge, and a reflection of our belief that education is the most powerful tool to foster growth, innovation, and success.
So, when people think of Tentho, I want them to see more than just an accounting firm; I want them to see a hub of education, a space where knowledge meets innovation, and a team that is committed to educating, empowering, and elevating businesses to new heights.
