West Foulger

Chief Operating Officer & President of Business Development

West Foulger has worked in the funeral profession since 1997. Prior to making the decision to become a Preneed Sales Counselor he spent 5 years in the restaurant industry. He took what he learned working in hospitality and applied it to his new career in funeral planning. West has a passion for building lasting relationships and serving families. His new career took off quickly and within two years accepted his first Preneed Sales Manager position in the small town of Roseburg, OR. Since then, he has not looked back. For more than 23 years West has worked to build preneed sales teams with large corporately held firms and family owned operations. He has a successful track record working with funeral homes, cemeteries and combination locations. During his time as Preneed Sales Manager with a large family owner firm in Salt Lake City, UT he grew their preneed program from $2 Million to over $8 Million in annual preneed sales in just under 5 years. This success led to co-founding Envision Strategic Partners where he used his 20+ years of experience to help more privately owned funeral homes and cemeteries develop a preneed program that could compete with any firm in any market.

Outside of work West enjoys spending time with his family in the great outdoors. He enjoys fishing, camping, snowboarding, mountain biking and boating. His time working in restaurants has stayed with him and he enjoys cooking for his large family. When the whole family comes home for holidays and Sunday dinners he regularly fires up the pellet smoker and works all day in the kitchen to feed more than 15 people. He believes that everything he does in his personal and professional life is all about putting your family first. For him, preplanning your own personal wishes is one of the most important acts of kindness you can perform for the people you love.

West is a co-founder of Envision Strategic Partners and currently the Chief Operating Officer and President of Business Development.
