Jeff Brodsly & Sarah McKee Reconnect with Industry Leaders and Reflect on Their Journey

A Legacy of Partnership, Industry Influence, and the Road Ahead

Earlier this week, Jeff Brodsly and Sarah McKee attended a major industry gathering in Las Vegas, reconnecting with familiar faces and reflecting on the journey that brought them here. The experience sparked conversations about their early days in business together and the evolution of their partnership across multiple industries. 

As they looked back on their shared experiences, it became clear how much their journey had evolved, from their early days in payments to becoming industry leaders across multiple sectors.

Their story began years ago in the payments industry as two sales agents managing different regions, Jeff in California and Sarah in Kansas. While they worked together occasionally, it quickly became clear that they shared something rare: a deep respect for each other’s strengths and a mutual drive to build something bigger.

That connection evolved into something even greater when Sarah opened a regional office for Jeff’s company, further strengthening their collaboration. Recognizing the power of working side by side, Jeff later brought Sarah and her family to California, setting the stage for a lasting partnership that would shape industries.

A Legacy of Industry Leadership

In 2012 and 2013, Jeff and Sarah expanded their focus to the transportation industry, fully immersing themselves in its growth and advocacy. They became active members of key associations, took on leadership roles, and dedicated themselves to strengthening the industry through strategic partnerships, advocacy efforts, and business development.

Their dedication was recognized with multiple industry awards, including:

• GCLA Award of Excellence (2013, 2019)
• LANJ Vendor Appreciation Award (2016)
• LCT Magazine Award of Excellence (2017)

Between the two of them, they have served on numerous industry boards, played pivotal roles in association initiatives, and supported legislative efforts that continue to make a lasting impact. Their commitment to the transportation industry was never just about business but about ensuring its long-term success.

Expanding Their Reach Across Multiple Industries

Jeff and Sarah applied that same dedication, advocacy, and strategic growth to multiple industries, including:

• Funeral – Where Sarah was recognized as a leading innovator and named the Face of Credit Card Processing in the American Funeral Director’s 2021 list of industry innovators.
• Jewelry – Partnering with top industry leaders to transform payment solutions for high-value transactions.
• Uniform & Apparel – Establishing streamlined payment structures for national vendors.
• Sporting Goods – Enhancing financial operations for retailers and suppliers.
• And many others – Always focused on driving impact, elevating businesses, and supporting the communities they serve.

Their companies have received numerous industry accolades, including:

• Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Privately Owned Businesses (2017 and 2018)
• First Data Presidents Club (six years in a row, one of the most prestigious honors in the payments industry)
• Moorpark Chamber of Commerce Mid-Size Business of the Year (2024)
• Moorpark Chamber of Commerce Best Place to Work (2023)
• Top 10 Payment & Card Solutions Provider – Banking CIO Outlook and Mirror Review
• Top Disruptive Tech Company – Industry Wired Magazine

Today and Beyond: A Partnership That Continues to Evolve

Fast forward to today, and their partnership remains as strong as ever. With Jeff’s visionary leadership and deep commitment to those who stand by him, and Sarah’s relentless drive and grit, they continue to push forward. Sarah now holds a key leadership role within Jeff’s companies and is a partner in a branch of one of Jeff’s parent companies, proving that their collaboration has only deepened with time.

Their time reconnecting with longtime industry peers provided a moment of reflection on how far they have come, but for Jeff and Sarah, the road ahead remains just as exciting. After nearly two decades of working together, building businesses, and shaping industries, they have become more than just business partners. They are trusted allies, friends, and, as many have called them, the “Bonnie and Clyde” of the business world—unstoppable, fiercely loyal, and always looking ahead.
