Buzz specializes in Marketing, Strategy, Operational Efficiency, Customer Service, Organizational Management, and Conflict Resolution.Buzz works with a powerful network of fellow investors with decades of experience in scaling companies through acquisition, marketing and operational improvement.Buzz has honed the skills that needed as a business owner and CEO over a 35 year career with many facets. In the Navy, he lead a division of over 20 Avionics/Armament sailors keeping the Seahawk helicopters mission-ready. As a result he learned the importance of leading by example while at the same time leveraging the expertise of your most experienced people, both as a leader and technician. He became a Total Quality Leadership Expert (TQL Train the Trainer) which was the Navy's implementation of W. Edwards Deming's Total Quality Management. As a result, he sees the world through the strategic lenses of process improvement and efficiency.Buzz learned the art of process documentation and personnel training as a flight instructor and certified Navy Master Trainer with the Sea-Based Advanced Tactical School. He helped develop multiple training courses including the Navy helicopter community's first version of the Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) course, based on the Top Gun program.He learned the art of servant leadership as a Director of Children's Ministry with over 40 monthly volunteer staff and teachers. He learned organizational management by growing a business referral network 120% over two years as president. He also learned the power of business networking and developing relationships with like-minded business owners and professionals.Buzz learned the art of technical selling as award-winning sales rep for Pfizer. And he honed his marketing skills during 15+ years as an advertising and marketing consultant to small business in the Los Angeles area.However, Buzz became dissatisfied as a consultant because it only allowed him to use a fraction of his skills and expertise for the benefit of his client companies. He is now able to tap into all of those skills as an owner and CEO to make a greater impact.Personal Business Mission Statement: "to bring prosperity to as many families as possible through business success and growth."
