1) Paul "Poppy" Gelvezon
2) MeritCard/VP of Sales
3) 1998
4) One score minus four is when I found my way into the world of the adult internet. I had no idea what WebSideStory was or what they sold at a high tech convention in San Diego. Fast forward to the year 2000 and I would be hired by Rainey Stricklin and work alongside a guy named Scott Rabinowitz who was not yet known as "Traffic Dude", selling online advertising.
I would move on and start my own consulting business called Poppy-Enterprises and work with companies like Jupiter Hosting and Spread4U. Jupiter Hosting would become a full-time gig, until that rocket ship was acquired by an evil mainstream hosting company who had no clue about adult and I will not mention their name, so as not to give them any credit...lol.
I then evolved into payments with L3 Payments and have learned the wonderful world of billing and have been in this since 2007. I then parted ways, quickly getting scooped up by Team MojoHost, but payments pulled me back in, as I was offered a wonderful position with MeritCard. I am also helping my good friends Raja and Laurel with Chargeback Help. They prevent consumer disputes from becoming chargebacks.
