THE RON FARBER STORY

Entrepreneur. Business Owner. Feature Film Producer. Author. Musician. Personality! And he has that last one to spare. In fact, there seems to be no stopping the growth and diversity of what Ron does. The convergence of the many hats that Ron wears acts to reinforce each one. It takes a very dynamic personality to make that happen. And that’s precisely what he does. He makes it happen! Let’s take a look at what Ron does and who he is.

Ron is the visionary founder and CEO of FIVESTAR BUSINESS SOLUTIONS, a leading information technology support and business solutions company based in Beverly Hills, California. His clients have ranged from individual computer users to large, prolific corporations, which require comprehensive system networking and the essential use of technology to support their business.

Ron began his entry into the world of computer technology over two decades ago as a young man who opted to learn useful programming skills on an early generation personal computer, while his friends just “played around” on their game systems. Ron, however, saw a little further than what was “cool” for the kids. Ron had a vision and Ron had drive. This continued drive grew with Ron’s later interest in musical electronics and sound engineering study. Ron attended the Sound Master Recording Institute in Los Angeles, working professionally with legendary recording industry veteran Brian D. Ingoldsby, producer to Elton John, Mick Jagger, Olivia Newton-John and Frank Zappa.

From just a hint of those early days, anyone could see Ron running ahead of the curve in much the way he does now in the inextricable fields of business and technology that make up FIVESTAR BUSINESS SOLUTIONS today.

An important detour in Ron’s life led him to apply his technological know-how in what then seemed the unrelated business of furniture sales and manufacturing. The once multi-million dollar earning furniture company that Ron worked for, The Chair Factory, suddenly was faced with decline of interest in their specialty wares and potential closure of their company, so they turned to Ron. Ron’s growing comprehensive knowledge of business systems, production and operations led him to turn the company around completely, increasing its gross annual income from one to four million dollars in less than a year. By that year’s end, Ron would become the president of that very same company, which became Designer’s Dream.

Ron Farber always saw the bigger picture at hand, while grasping important minute details required for problem resolution. Restless with the furniture business, Ron sold off his share in 2001 to a partner in order to move in the direction that would lead him to FIVESTAR BUSINESS SOLUTIONS.

His next step was a significant one that helped Ron to bridge what then were the two fundamentally different fields of business and technology into one. Ron led the way, with his company Zai Communications, in the early 1990’s, by beginning one of the very first of what we know today as the I.S.P. or internet service provider. He set up websites for important local city government bodies, such as the City of Commerce’s Industrial Council. These websites eventually became home base for many of these organizations and companies. And this was just the beginning.

Ron soon after created FIVESTAR I.T., by the mid-1990’s, eventually growing into FIVESTAR BUSINESS SOLUTIONS . This new company provides merchant and credit card processing services; integrated telephone and T1 business class internet; premiere I.T. computer services; web design and e-commerce configuration; and comprehensive business consultation.

Alongside the operation of FIVESTAR, Ron has written and published dozens of technology-related articles for such prestigious magazines as BEL-AIR VIEW, BRENTWOOD NEWS, MALIBU BEACH and SANTA MONICA SUN, among others. As a leading technology guru, Ron has also professionally interviewed members of his field for research and publication.

Most recently, Ron has become a feature film producer by joining forces with producer Stephen Wozniak to collectively form INEVITABLE FILM GROUP.
