About William M. Windsor

I began my career as a junior at Texas Tech University.  I became involved in the T-shirt business in college, and after several years as a retailer, wholesaler, and manufacturer, I launched the trade magazine and trade show for the industry.  I am considered by many to be the father of the multi-billion dollar "imprinted sportswear industry."  I started other magazines and shows, and sold the company and "retired" at a young age.

My retirement didn't last long.  I have owned and/or operated many magazines and trade shows, travel businesses, retail stores, manufacturing companies, printing company, typesetting business, advertising agency, marketing companies, convention services businesses, souvenir and gift businesses, tourist attractions, resort businesses,  music businesses, computer software company, a consulting company, a food franchise, internet businesses, and more.  I have written numerous articles, books, training programs, and manuals.  I have spoken at conferences and trade shows across North America and in Europe, Australia, and China.

From 1992 to 1996, I was President of Advanstar Expositions, a company owned at the time by Goldman Sachs.  Advanstar was one of the largest producers of trade shows and conferences in the world.  From 1996 to 2001, I was CEO of 1st Communications, a company owned by Bain Capital, Triumph Capital Group, and me.  1st Communications made a series of multi-million dollar acquisitions to build one of the largest trade show businesses -- the largest in terms of the number of annual events.  1st Communications also developed one of the first online job and resume businesses using a network of over 1,000 websites.  That business was sold to The Washington Post in 2001, and I "retired" to Atlanta, Georgia.

I discovered corruption in the federal courts in Atlanta, Georgia, and I will not stop until these judges are exposed for the world to see.  People will tell you that I'm as tenacious as they come.  I will spend the rest of my life on this if necessary.

I'm not an attorney.  I was accepted to law school but decided to go into business instead.  Since 2006, I've gotten quite a legal education.  At this point, I'm confident that I can do a better job than any attorney would, and I work cheap.

I come from a media family.  My father was one of the pioneers of the television industry.  He was the President of the ABC Television station in Orlando for the last 15 years of his career.  My brother was a TV news anchorman and trainer of news, weather, and sportscasters.  I was a radio and TV announcer in high school and college.

I started several companies in college.  I was accepted to law school.  Thank Heavens I went into business instead.

I was a magazine publishing company owner / publisher for 30 years.  I've been the publisher, President, or Vice-President of over 100 magazines.  I have also been a trade show / conference producer for 30 years.  I've been a speaker at conferences all around the world.  I've lectured at major universities.  I'm the author of hundreds of magazine articles, books, manuals, conference programs.

I'm an expert in SWOT Analysis -- Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats.  I've written hundreds of business plans for small start-ups to multi-billion dollar businesses.  I've built internet sites that generate over 1,600,000 users per month.

From 2008 to 2010, I led a successful effort to clean up corruption in Ontario Canada.
