Mike Allen Wade is an entrepreneur, consultant, and the owner of Covington Granite, located in Covington, TN.
Mike's history in the granite industry began by working for his father-in-law at Covington Granite after college until, at the age of 29, he took over as owner.
With a degree in Audio Engineering and Business from Middle Tennessee State University and a unique skill set in entertainment marketing, Mike modernized and streamlined the monument business to become a competitive force in the online marketplace.
In his time as owner of Covington Granite, he has doubled profits and landed valuable contracts. So much so that, in the fall of 2021, the business had outgrown its campus and relocated to a larger, more efficient location.
Even though his company continues to reach milestone after milestone, Mike's highest priorities remain centered around personal relationships. He has and continues to foster and maintain an active role as a member of the community, and his workplace environment is focused on staying healthy and positive.
As his business continues its trajectory, Michael looks to offer b2b consulting and marketing for helping other monument businesses modernize and grow. One of his many vehicles for this endeavor is through his podcast, “Modern Monument Mason”, which focuses on growing the granite and monument industry.
