Gary began his career working with and for large international corporations, developing programs to enhance their sales. In the mid-80's, Gary discovered his true calling when he started selling products and services to small businesses all across America. Gary identified with the entrepreneurial spirit of these business owners. 

The family-oriented focus, the "work hard-play hard" mentality, the caring for their employees, and the constant drive to grow and improve each business. Over the next 20 years, Gary sold to, managed, and owned small businesses, learning more about them every day, becoming a huge advocate. 

As the technology of the Internet changed more and more the way business was being done, Gary began to notice that new technology being used wasn't filtering down to most small businesses. This allowed bigger companies to have a decided advantage in exposure, and the ability to attract more customers and clients. 

 In 2013, Gary partnered with Sterling Couch to establish SalesHawks, a family-owned company dedicated to bringing the latest technology directly to small businesses, from attorneys to zoologists. The newest technology offering from SalesHawks is their exclusive AI Smart Talk. This unique system gives small businesses a much more effective, less expensive option to costly call centers and answering services...to bring new clients and customers directly to these small companies...
ensuring they never miss a call.
