About Me

Hi! I’m Rod.

In one way, shape, or form I’ve been performing business valuations since the late 1980s. I started Burkert Valuation Advisors in July 2000, specializing in tax purpose valuations for manufacturers and distributors.

Now, I focus on practice building coaching. My mission … to help BVFLS professionals turn the practices they HAVE into the practices they WANT.

When ChatGPT 3.5 rolled out in November of 2022, I saw the possibilities that AI could have for our BVFLS profession. Thus began my journey of self-learning and experimentation, culminating in the AI for BVTM newsletter and adding “with an assist from AI” to my mission statement.
