During this entrepreneurial phase of my career, I founded a commercial and consumer based company to independently expand my Sales and Marketing skill set to encompass General Management and Finance. Exploiting the temporary equipment market, commercial financing and an agency relationship with Penske Truck Leasing, I had raised over $100K in SBA funding, grew sales to nearly a third of a million dollars in 7 years.Finally, in order to resume my Industrial Sales career in Photonics, I successfully liquidated the assets and liabilities of the business. I had realized my passion had not dissipated, my experience had instead matured, I had already invested more than a dozen years, experiencing fulfillment, success, great pleasure, and I still enjoyed the pleasure of great industry professional and personal friends. And so, for other personal reasons as well, I decided to resume this rewarding career path as the next chapter in my career, returning to help Photonics customers acquire what they need.I wound down operations, and as an interim career transition, explored the development of business relationships with partners originating commercial financing, gaining valuable experience and understanding of markets, and generated success for shareholders despite negative market forces throughout the industry, as I moved forward, researching this next important move.
