About

As an entrepreneur, I've created successful businesses on three continents. I now work with a cadre of senior experienced executives specializing in developing and implementing sales growth strategies. We assist SMBs to Fortune 100 businesses get in the door with decision makers who have a need, and who want to talk with you about how you can help. And we make sure those leads make it successfully, quickly and profitably through your Sell Cycle. We have solutions at every price point, and we have experience in virtually every market. We are focused on helping you succeed. We get results. And no long term commitment is required. If you feel you've done your best, but you're still not winning the opportunities you should have won, then we should talk.

      This is for the restless ones, gallant fools who follow the sun across blue waters to distant shores. I sold my highly successful Manufacturers Rep business (Krazy Glue, Simple Green, Breathe-rite) to "drift & blend," sailing around the world. It was before GPS the internet or cel phones, a time for self-sufficiency, confidence and accuracy. When plotting an island, it needed to be there as expected, and that natives would be friendly. During years at sea we sailed into a military coup, survived hurricane force storms, made love on a sapphire sea, careened down a flooding river, and were attacked by pirates in the Malacca Straits. Considered a master storyteller I've authored two best selling nonfiction books "No Return Ticket" (Leg one & Leg Two) available everywhere in print and audio. While voyaging,we built and operated Adventure, Island Entertainment in Phuket Thailand, a similar center at the Park of Five Rams in Guangzhou, China, and developed the Sea Nomad inflatable boat company.
