Imagine being orphaned at the age of six, spending your childhood living in 19 different foster homes and attending 11 different schools. Instead of becoming a victim of these circumstances, C. Richard Weylman overcame them to enjoy remarkable business success.
After leaving his last foster home, with perseverance, he opened doors of opportunity that many with his early background would have not attempted to walk through. Beginning by selling cookware, Richard progressed and went on to develop several prosperous companies including an award-winning Rolls-Royce dealership and “The Robb Report,” a world-renowned magazine for wealthy and affluent people.
Richard’s experience in marketing, selling, and communicating with wealthy and affluent people is unmatched. Today, he draws from his lifetime of experience to help others understand this unique marketplace, overcome obstacles, and grow a profitable business. He is the best selling author of Opening Closed Doors -- Keys To Reaching Hard To Reach People.
In addition, Richard has earned the designation of Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) from the National Speakers Association (NSA), and has been inducted into the Professional Speakers Hall of Fame. This lifetime achievement award is given to experts who speak and who have reached the top echelon of platform excellence. Further, he is also the recipient of the Council of Peers Award of Excellence (CPAE). Richard has also received the Direct Selling Association’s 2001 Partnership Award for having measurable impact on the growth and profitability of member companies.
On a personal level, Richard has been recognized for his work on behalf of others by several organizations, including a nomination for the prestigious Horatio Alger Award. This award recognizes outstanding individuals in our society who have succeeded in the face of adversity and pursue dreams with determination and perseverance.
