Chris Keiser
Advisor

Chris is passionate about ecommerce and enjoys using technology to add new revenue streams to existing brick and mortar businesses. As the Ecommerce Director for Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, Chris oversaw the implementation of a new shopping platform that increased online sales by 180% YOY 2013 vs. 2012.

All private golf facilities work to better service their members and Vanguard was founded to make that work a little easier.
