“I worked closely with Rich for several years on what ended up being a very successful investment. Rich is very creative, has a keen sense for consumer marketing and brand building and is great at motivating a team to take the hill and achieve the extraordinary. By driving lots of product innovation around a strong brand Rich was able to accelerate sales growth and category leadership of our offerings in the bow hunting space.”

Sold Private Equity Company for 10.8X EBITDA
As CEO of FeraDyne Outdoors, I significantly increased its EBITDA over a five-year period. The tremendous growth was achieved through a combination of new product growth and the integration of five companies. Also, while leading the business, I modified the bow hunting and archery market by implementing consumer packaged goods marketing and merchandising processes.

The tremendous growth was achieved through a combination of new product growth and the integration of five companies. Also, while leading the business, I modified the bow hunting and archery market by implementing consumer packaged goods marketing and merchandising processes.
My efforts increased market share and developed relationships with top retailers including WalMart, Cabela’s, Bass Pro Shops, Amazon, Academy Sports and Gander Mountain, as well as 3500 independent archery dealers.
These combined successes led to the acquisition of FeraDyne Outdoors for 10.8X EBITDA.
