Founder and Entrepreneur

Bio

Car Property Group, Inc., dba CarProperty.com
Lifetime entrepreneur. I was selling Christmas Holly door-to-door when I was 10 years old, along with my newspaper route. I've been a founder and business person ever since then. At 18, while working as a DJ for a rock station in the San Francisco Bay Area, I founded a Concert and Dance Promotion company that booked live events and promoted them to the public. I subsequently, founded a Building Maintenance Company that serviced commercial office building clients. Then I went on to start a Radio Syndication Company that produced shows for radio stations throughout the USA and the BBC in England. My next venture was a Software Company, where we built a program called Avenues for Windows, which was a marketing campaign database management program. After that, I was doing high level IT consulting for two big government entities in the San Francisco Bay Area. Then came getting a real estate brokers license and my focus was on working with car collectors who had unique real estate needs. Then that spun up to the launch of CarProperty.com and the subsequent formation of Car Property Group, Inc. Now we are at a big pivot point and need to raise outside equity capital.

Elevator Pitch

This is new domain name for a business that we've been running since 2009 as an official company. I don't have the elevator pitch ready yet for the fund raise that we are working to achieve.

I joined Startups.com to get the help I need in putting the investor presentation package/pitch together and to find investors for our big pivot that we're working on.

CarProperty.com is the current site, but we are leaning towards changing it all to Garages.ai.
