West Palm Beach, FL – November 18, 2024 – Blue Peak Resources, a merger and acquisitions consulting firm, proudly announces that Paula Wilson has joined the organization as its latest team member.
Paula is a seasoned business and marketing executive specializing in strategic planning, market growth, and profitability. With over 35 years of experience in the propane industry, she has held various roles, including positions at AmeriGas Propane and the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC).
While at AmeriGas, Paula led the marketing team, executing several key growth and retention programs. She also played a significant role in integrating customer communications following five major acquisitions.
“I have also served PERC, most recently as the Director of Industry Engagement,” Paula explained. “In that role, my focus was on collaborating with the PERC team and state associations to educate the propane industry about PERC’s programs, training, and marketing
resources.”
Throughout her nearly four-decade career in the propane industry, Paula has remained passionate about three key areas:
1. Collaborating with marketers to ensure their success in market growth.
2. Emphasizing her employers’ commitment to both company-oriented and family-oriented branding.
3. Adding value to the communities served by her employers.
“Paula is much more than a business and marketing executive—she’s a dedicated member of the propane industry and the broader community,” said Mike Gioffre, Co-owner and Co-founder of Blue Peak Resources. “Her commitment to her employers, the industry, and her fellow citizens over the past 35 years has been invaluable, and it will continue to be for Blue Peak Resources.”
In addition to her professional roles, Paula has served on the NPGA’s Board of Directors, been PERC’s Council Chairwoman for two years, and participated in the Women in Propane Council. Currently, she is also a group facilitator with the NPGA Benchmarking Council.
“I am looking forward to starting the next chapter of my career with Blue Peak Resources,” Paula added. “Like me, Blue Peak Resources is fully dedicated to the propane industry. I’m excited to join the firm and contribute to its positive impact on the industry for years to come.”
“This will be a highly valued partnership between Paula and Blue Peak Resources,” Mike emphasized. “We are excited to leverage Paula’s passions, talents, and experiences as we look ahead to 2025 and beyond.”
