I'm an entrepreneur and promoter at heart that has founded and run several businesses including eCommerce and wholesale distribution businesses. Prior to that I spent several years in the U.S. Navy and several more years in the civilian world training to be a nuclear power plant operator; but ultimately realized that I did not enjoy it, so I quit and started selling encyclopedias door-to-door. I found pivoting to be a wonderful thing full of adventure and the spice of life. My years as a door-to-door salesman selling encyclopedias, baby portraits, Craftmatic Beds, Contour Chairs, Balloon-stuffing machines and other things all gave me a great foundation in direct sales to consumers and businesses. Being trained in direct sales by some of the most truly successful leaders in the direct sales industry at the time was one of my great and lucky fortunes, and I am eternally grateful for that. Having built those skills before the internet arrived, it formed a solid foundation as the world transformed into the internet age. Over the past two decades I have founded an American manufacturing business that utilizes the direct to customer ecommerce sales sales and marketing strategy. In this position I have become competent in identifying and serving the needs of B2C and B2B customers. I am an excellent sales person and I especially excel at sales and prospecting over the phone.
