Brian Fox’s Summary

I started my business in 2000 and started working for Ford Motor Company launching their Focus to the youth. At SEMA Show 2000, my work was on the Cover of the Wall Street Journal. In May 2001, I was on the Cover of Money section in USA Today the newpaper putting Saturn on the map. Later that year, I landed my own TV show on SPEED called "Mother's Import Auto Tour" which was the first of its kind. Since then, I haven't left the youth demographic and have helped many companies prosper in the business of hustling car parts with new creative ideas.

Every single day, I run into awesome opportunities from my network and pass them on to whom I work with. I just love what I do and helping people in their current positions. My goal is to effect a companies bottom line with strong sales driven ideas that show instant results.
