Bellevue, Wash. (August 2, 2007) -- Guidant Financial Group, the nation’s leading self-directed retirement account facilitator, announced the addition of Jim Winder as Business Development Manager. Winder’s responsibilities will include building relationships with business brokers and franchisors, representing the company at industry trade shows and events, and helping to develop new market strategies.
“Because the self-directed industry is still relatively unknown, finding individuals with relevant experience is challenging,” says David Nilssen, president and CEO of Guidant Financial Group. ”Since he has nearly 10 years of experience, Jim brings significant credibility, contacts and experience to our ever-growing team of professionals.”
“Guidant can benefit from Jim’s tremendous contacts and track record,” adds Nilssen. “He has spent years creating an outstanding name for himself in our community. And by joining our company, he will be able to contribute to, and be a part of, the tremendous growth Guidant has been enjoying. It’s a win-win for Guidant and for Jim.”
Winder agrees that this move is the right one. “This is a tremendous opportunity,” says Winder. “Guidant is a very well respected and represented company in the self-directed industry. I am excited about the benefits that Guidant is bringing to the forefront and the direction that this type of investing is moving in.”
