David Parker, Owner, Founder, President, and sometimes chief dishwasher, holds a B.S. in Business Management and a Masters in Business Administration.

A mostly lifelong resident of Kansas City (has lived in multiple cities during his career in the airline industry), he founded Vanguard Business Services with a single thought in mind, 'Help Small Businesses'.

Working with small businesses there was a clear void in a business suite for small business owners.  A business owner went into business to produce a certain product(s), or perform a certain task(s), that is their passion, managing a business is almost always an afterthought.

Sometimes these business owners find themselves in a bind or just do not know where to turn to ask a question, that is where David loves to come in. With his extensive network of business partners and other owners, if you need a service he knows a person, if you need a product he knows where to get it, if not he will find someone who will!

David takes this 'helping' attitude to a different level while providing a complete package to the small business owner, or individual services, whatever the business owner truly needs. There are no 'cookie-cutter' or 'bundles' like at many large out-of-state corporations, each plan is designed specifically for that client.

Alex Wright, Co-Owner, CFO and sometimes chief laundry folder, holds a B.S. in Business Operations and a Masters in Business Administration with concentrations in Accounting.

Alex is a lifelong resident of Missouri and has been in the Kansas City area since the mid-90’s.

He joined Vanguard Business Services in 2015. After years in corporate America with companies doing a few million a year up to several billion, it was time to make a big jump into self-employment by joining David. Being self-employed had been a life-long dream.

Helping small businesses by making their lives simpler and providing them with a level of service and
pride that they most likely didn’t have before are what gives Alex satisfaction in a job well done.


Building networks of like-minded people and having contacts to share to clients add another level of
service for clients with Vanguard Business Services.
