Mark Moses

Moses watched his father run a men’s clothing store which ultimately went bankrupt. Watching the impacts this had on his family, Mark was motivated to try his own hand at entrepreneurship. When he was 19, he began his first company and moved to California, USA. After he moved, he co-founded a mortgage company called Platinum Capital Group. In 1998, decisions by Wall Street turned this multimillion-dollar company upside down. After making financial decisions, which almost included formally filing for bankruptcy, the company was saved with the help of a partnership with creditors.

Moses attended Wilfrid Laurier University from 1983-1987. He achieved a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and Management.

Mark's motivational business growth strategies are a key player for CEO's in the industry to employ top performers and how to manage and achieve business goals. To get employees Think Big, he once rode an 8,000-pound elephant to a sales meeting.
