John Hazlewood founded TravelStoreMaker.com in September 2000 assuming the job of company's President and Chief Executive Officer. Prior to that, Mr. Hazlewood had founded several other entrepreneurial ventures also assuming management positions. An early pioneer of the Internet, Mr. Hazlewood led the marketing and development of an Internet web-based travel reservation system that was first of its kind at that time. In 1996, he founded and secured investment funds for INTRANSCO Inc., an e-commerce travel company. While with INTRANSCO, he spearheaded its development subsidiary located in Sofia, Bulgaria. In 1998, in parallel with the e-commerce travel initiative, he began a Y2K Services and IT staffing division in order to take advantage of the technical resources in Bulgaria.

In his capacity as CEO, Mr. Hazlewood grew the company from a one-person organization to over 100 professionals developing at the same time numerous software applications in Bulgaria at a fraction of the cost that they would have taken to develop in the United States.

Mr. Hazlewood owned and operated several leisure travel agencies, founded and operated a sport agency representing professional athletes and sport teams, was a principal and general manager of a semi-professional soccer team, founded and operated a lawn maintenance and landscaping company, and founded and operated an import-export company. He has extensive experience in the information technology industry, international business, public relations, contract negotiation, developing partnership/strategic relationships, and the travel industry.
