CEO of Filterbuy
From Wall Street to Air Quality Innovator— David Heacock walked away from a seven- figure finance career to rebuild his family’s
dying business. With zero experience in manufacturing, he took a bold leap of faith— and built Filterbuy, a $250M industry disruptor revolutionizing indoor air quality. What started as a small factory in Alabama is now a nationwide leader, producing millions of high-quality air filters and expanding into HVAC services, air purification, and automotive filtration—all while creating nearly
1,000 U.S. jobs and serving over 7 million customers.
But success wasn’t easy. Burned-down factories, near-fatal accidents, and relentlesssetbacks tested his grit at every turn. Now,
David is pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to scale a business—no investors, no shortcuts, just raw determination.
Now, he's sharing the hard-earned lessons behind building a business from nothing—so other entrepreneurs can do the same."
