VeriFacts Names Mike Stacy Vice President of Sales
VeriFacts Automotive, LLC has named Michael D. Stacy to serve as Vice President of Sales and Marketing.“With more than 30 years of experience in the collision industry, Mike brings a wealth of information to our company from all levels. Mike’s experience, knowledge and energy will be an invaluable asset as we continue to grow our business solutions,” stated Farzam Afshar, CEO of VeriFacts.
Stacy started in the collision industry in 1972 sweeping floors. By 1981 he owned his own collision repair shop in Ohio after a tour with the Army serving as an Army Airborne Ranger. Stacy became one of the first shop owners to fully computerize his operation after attending a 3M ARMS Seminar in 1985. He was involved with I-CAR as a coordinator, ASA of Ohio where he served on the board, and local vo-tech advisory councils. In 1992, Stacy sold his operation and joined CCC Information Services to help bring their Estimating System to market. During his 10 year career at CCC, he received several promotions to the level of Zone Vice President and was involved in the development of their current Estimating System.
Stacy left CCC in 2001 to pursue challenges in the world of franchising within the automotive industry. In his first year, he was named “New Franchisee of the Year” and broke a 40 year old sales record for a new store opening.
Stacy commented, “I am very excited about VeriFacts’ vision, energy and leadership. After seeing what VeriFacts has to offer the industry, it was an easy decision for me to accept the position and an honor to be aligned with such a dynamic company. VeriFacts’ unique suite of services is truly a win-win for the collision industry.”
VeriFacts Automotive, LLC was founded to address the implementation of best repair practices within the collision repair industry. The company provides interactive, on-the-job, technician coaching and serves as an unbiased, third-party to measure and verify collision repair quality.
