After 12 years with the bus company, Trailways, John pursued his entrepreneurial vision through the ownership of a travel agency that specialized in motorcoach tours and charter bus sales. Also during that time, he served as a consultant to the bus industry. As an advisor for the company that purchased and merged Greyhound Bus Lines with Trailways Bus Lines, John was responsible for operational pro formas, bus route and schedule consolidation, and asset acquisition.Those relationships led to a joint venture between John and the new Greyhound Corporation. Together, they created a new business model for the charter side of the bus industry, which operated as Greyhound Charter Service, Inc. Five Southeastern cities were designated as Greyhound Charter Service markets. Within three years they increased their sales by 300%. John bought Greyhound’s shares of Greyhound Charter Service, changed the name to Orion Charter and Tours, and sold that bus company in 1992.A continuation of his consulting career led to the acquisition of an entertainer tour bus leasing business. That company grew to own 20 entertainer and corporate VIP buses. In 1997, John sold the company’s fleet of buses, and Busforsale.com, LLC, came into existence. More than 1000 used buses for sale and over a decade later, John and the staff at Busforsale.com, continue to increase used bus sales annually and expand its bus services. Today, the company is the largest broker of used bus conversions and passenger motorcoach equipment in the country. The company also has the finest facility of any independent bus dealer in the country. No other bus dealership can match Busforsale.com’s level of customer service. The best just continues to get better.
