Thom Brodeur: Revolutionizing Pageantry in the Creator Economy

T hom Brodeur is on a mission to completely transform the pageantry industry. A seasoned entrepreneur, brand builder, philanthropist, and the Founder of Brodeur Beauties, CEO of PageantFans™ and Talent Manager, Brodeur is reshaping pageants from a beauty contest to a dynamic platform for women’s empowerment, entrepreneurship, and lasting success. With years of experience in the tech, media, and beauty industries, Brodeur is taking his vision to a whole new level by offering beauty queens and contestants the tools to capitalize on their visibility, connect with fans, and build thriving ventures that go beyond the crown.

His groundbreaking initiatives, such as PageantFans™ and Brodeur Beauties, focus on one key goal: creating an ecosystem where pageant contestants are not just crowned but empowered. Through PageantFans™, a platform combining content, community, and commerce, Brodeur enables beauty queens to connect with fans who support them not just as admirers, but as potential investors in their personal brands and entrepreneurial endeavors. This revolutionary platform allows queens to share content, sell merchandise, and fund the ventures they are passionate about—creating new streams of income and opportunities that go beyond the spotlight.

Brodeur’s efforts are a response to the growing number of pageant contestants who identify as entrepreneurs or small business owners. According to Brodeur, 63% of women in the pageantry world are already involved in business. His vision is to provide these women with access to resources and funding that can help them build their ventures and secure financial independence. He understands that the pageant stage should be just one of many platforms that allow these women to shine, and he’s building the infrastructure to help them do so on their own terms.

In addition to his work with PageantFans™, Brodeur is also a strategic advisor for The Queen Beauty Network [QBN], a streaming platform designed to be the “Netflix of beauty, fashion, and pageantry TV.” With QBN, Brodeur is working to modernize pageantry and expand its global reach, offering beauty queens the opportunity to showcase themselves on a global stage. Partnering with media expert Holly Lynch, Brodeur aims to amplify the voices of pageant queens through a digital platform where younger generations consume entertainment, making pageantry more accessible and relevant in today’s media landscape.

Through Brodeur Beauties, his coaching business, Brodeur is helping pageant queens, models, and beauty influencers hone their personal brands, master their social media presence, and refine their styling skills. His guidance is positioning these women for success in not just pageants but the broader beauty and entertainment industries, where their influence can stretch far beyond the stage.

Brodeur’s unique vision has not gone unnoticed. Featured in Forbes, CNN, and The New York Times, he is increasingly becoming an influential voice for leadership reform and equity within the pageantry world. His calls for greater inclusivity and a shift toward purpose-driven leadership are resonating with a growing demand for industries to focus on values, ethics, and impact alongside profit.

At the core of Brodeur’s work is a deep commitment to helping others achieve their potential. As he puts it, “The people whose lives we touch, inspire or shape are what makes me tick. I profoundly believe that my purpose on this earth is to drive change and help others marshal their own excellence.” Through his leadership, Brodeur is challenging the status quo and creating pathways for women to succeed and make a lasting impact on their communities and industries.

Thom Brodeur is more than a pageant pioneer; he’s a champion for women’s entrepreneurship, an advocate for equity, and a visionary leader driving change. His ventures, including Brodeur Beauty, Queen Beauty TV, Brodeur Beauties, and Brodeur-Berisha Atelier, are leaving an indelible mark on the pageantry industry, inspiring countless individuals to take control of their futures, amplify their voices, and leave a legacy of empowerment.
