Rachel has a Masters in Business Administration and is excellent at building and maintaining relationships with industry professionals at all levels. Her favorite compliment from a buyer was that she is ‘respectfully persistent.’ Rachel is extremely effective in finding successes for our clients with a creative, yet pragmatic approach.
Sam has spent 15+ years in the CPG industry as both an Inside Sales and Outside Sales Manager. She is known internally as our ‘WOO Girl’ and supports her clients’ growth with passion. As a former championship boxer, she brings that energy to fight for our clients on slotting and promotional negotiations and create win-win partnerships with retailers.
Gary Messmore hit the Sunshine State in 1984, and has made waves in the industry since. He has held various high level positions across Natures Plus, Tree of Life, Natural Specialty Sales, and back to Kehe as VP of Natural Sales in the Southeast. Gary could not willingly fully retire and now enjoys the boots on the ground approach with his local stores he knows like family.

She emphatically relates to our clients to provide an individualized approach to growth. Sarah is our resident wordsmith and utilizes her extensive vocabulary to resonate with buyers and convey the need for your product on shelf.

I love working with Taylor and the whole team at Burst Management. Great attention to detail, persistence, and very deep knowledge of the industry. They are fun to work with, which is important! It's been almost five years now, and I would not have any reason to look elsewhere--I have been with several brokers over the last 13 years, and most of them lasted about five months! Thanks Taylor and Burst Management!
I have worked with the Burst Management team for two years. They have covered all key accounts and distributors in several regions with more than 50 SKUs across multiple categories. I believe them to be a solid team of tenured individuals with trusted expertise in the industry. They have great relationships with the buying teams at all retailers/key accounts and distributors across the nation. Their team is well respected by every buyer that I have witnessed during our partnership.
