CHRISTOPHER BENSON
Hi, I’m Chris a big fan of life! Being an entrepreneur who owns a marketing agency, limousine service, and real estate investor keeps my time occupied. Currently, I am working with other entrepreneurs to elevate their marketing and themselves through the Ultimate Alpha Leadership Experience. The purpose of this is to create bonds with like-minded entrepreneurs on a higher level and elevate each other.
My past includes being raised on military bases throughout the world as an Army dependent of my father who retired from Fort Leavenworth, KS. In 1992 I enlisted after high school and went to Fort Sill, OK for basic training. After being stationed in Ft. Sill for a short while, they sent me to Bamberg Germany for three years. This time included a tour in Bosnia in 1995-1996. This was a wonderful experience that allowed me to work closely with General Officers. At the end of my military career, I was sent to Ft. Sam Houston to train as a Combat Medic for the Army Reserves.
After the military I went to school at the College of Oceaneering in Los Angeles Harbor for commercial diving. After school I ended up becoming the VP of Sales and Marketing for a small medical record company in San Pedro, CA for 8 years. I returned home to Kansas City in 2008 and started a career as a financial advisor with AXA Advisors now Equitable. After a successful time as an advisor, I realized it lacked the calling and challenges I was looking for.
In 2017, I took the leap of faith and joined Time-Wise, Inc., a successful marketing agency to become a director of marketing. Currently I help more than 30 different clients with their marketing solutions. I started Thrive Media & Promotions, LLC a marketing agency to help businesses grow. Another endeavor is Classy Limo KC which provides luxury limousine services. Another passion of mine involves owning Airbnb units and single-family real estate with the goal of larger commercial projects for the future.
My goal in life is to elevate others and myself through strategic like-minded partnerships. Creating partnerships for a lifetime that ensure success with whatever endeavor is at hand. When this is achieved then transforming life changes can occur and creating a world worthy of you is possible.
