Short Bio

Cody McLain’s unique foresight has led to his immense success as an entrepreneur. He saw opportunity in a specific area — existing tech startups — and had the 86th fasting growing company according to the 2019 Inc. 5000 list, and was ranked the fastest growing outsourcing company in the US. The company employed over 1,000 employees with offices in Austin and the Philippines.

Cody has since sold the majority of his stake and currently is the host of the MindHack.com Podcast, is the author of the book “From Foster Care to Millionaire,” and is working on a series of new ventures he hopes will have a positive impact for millions. He blogs on his website, CodyMcLain.com and lives in Austin, TX.

“Every day I meditate for my soul, I exercise for my body, and I read for my mind.”

Serial entrepreneur Cody McLain was already grooming himself as quite the business entrepreneur while still in middle school. He found his niche and started his first business, a web hosting company, and continued to grow and expand the company through high school.

However, it would be his unique foresight that would lead to his immense future success. He saw opportunity in a specific area — existing tech startups. Since these existing companies have little to no prior history, an external valuation is necessary to be taken seriously by investors. So, Cody saw opportunity in these existing startups, knowing perfectly well that they already had an external valuation, so his efforts wouldn’t be based on theory.

As a result, Cody brings to the table the world’s best outsourced support and customer service to these companies. He does his magic through SupportNinja, which currently services many high-profile clients globally. Cody employs a global staff of over 500 employees; the company earns over $4 million in annual revenue and continues to grow each year.

In addition to his business savvy, Cody has a remarkable altruistic spirit, and there isn’t anything that can bring him down. He was born in Oakland, California to alcoholic parents, who eventually lost custody of Cody. He eventually wound up in the foster care system. After being returned to his parents, Cody suffered another blow — both parents died within a few years.

Never missing a beat, he picked himself right up and kept moving forward, creating his current multi-million dollar global empire, and kept true to his generous nature of service to others. As for the future, Cody is on a mission to work with underprivileged youth by inspiring and motivating them. Motivation and inspiration equal a great future for all of mankind, and that is Cody’s life mission.

Cody was also struggling with another challenge; he was born with Asperger’s Syndrome, which made him the target for being bullied at school. Cody’s inability to understand social cues and the bad intentions of others was the reason Cody lost his first business that he started while still in school.

He has written a book, “From Foster Care to Millionaire,” which he hopes will inspire others who were dealt a tough hand. He also enjoys encouraging others with his blog, CodyMcLain.com. He resides in Austin, Texas and in his free time likes bicycling, traveling, and photography.
