MERRILLVILLE, IN…
The DirectBuy Corporate Support Center recently hired Mark Boggess as chief financial officer (CFO).
AS CFO, Boggess will work closely with management to grow the DirectBuy network of franchise centers, as well as new products and services.
“We’re extremely excited to have somebody of Mark’s caliber as CFO. It’s no coincidence that the companies he’s worked for previously have enjoyed tremendous success and we’re hoping that continues here at DirectBuy,” said Scott Powell, president and CEO of DirectBuy.
Boggess comes to DirectBuy after a successful career with Affinity Group, Inc., which operates membership clubs with nearly two million active members. The company sells products and services like liability insurance, emergency road service, publishing and specialty retail.
“I’m positively thrilled with the opportunity to work with Scott and the rest of the team at DirectBuy,” said Boggess. “We’re in the middle of some very challenging economic times these days and that makes the job of CFO even more critical. Thankfully, DirectBuy has a product that gives consumers the power to stretch their dollars farther and that’s something I’m happy to be a part of.”
Boggess and his family are in the process of relocating to Chicagoland from Bowling Green, Kentucky.
