Tod O’Connor
Tod has an award winning retail and franchise background (as an Owner/Director) that has been underpinned by extensive corporate, business and merchant banking experience.
That experience revolved primarily around "C" Level Relationship Management roles and the sale of financial solutions to businesses and institutions whilst meeting internal Board level requirements.
He later went on to own multiple award-winning, multi-site franchise and retail operations in Queensland, Australia that spanned from the mid-1990s to the late 2000s. During that time he built 3 large format stores, extended one of those and employed over 100 people.
After selling down those investments, Tod has since provided guidance, leadership and direction to a diverse range of SMEs and corporates in fields ranging from Sales, Relationship Management, White Paper Communications, Consumer & Business Finance, Retail, Franchising and Property.
Over the last 15 years he have built outstanding relationships within the pharmacy industry and he has turned his extensive business and corporate experience to creating wide ranging, pragmatic, online and cost effective solutions for business owners.
