B.E. Meyers & Company, Inc. Names Michael Alvis its New Chief Executive Officer
Wednesday, November 20th, 2013I had the pleasure of meeting Mike Alvis last week during a visit to BE Meters’ corporate headquarters. He has been with the company for some time now, serving as their VP of Business Development. I really enjoyed discussing the business and his vision for the company. Congrats to both Mike and the team at BE Meyers.
November 20, 2013 (Redmond, WA) – B.E. Meyers & Company, Inc. has announced the appointment of Mr. Michael Alvis, currently Vice President of Business Development, as its new President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Alvis will assume the position effective immediately. The Meyers family has selected Mr. Alvis for this position based on their confidence in his demonstrated ability to strategically position the company in new markets both domestically and internationally.
“We are excited to welcome Mike as the next CEO of B.E. Meyers & Company, Inc. His military, industry and international experience is well-suited to drive us forward into new markets and in pursuit of new opportunities. For 40 years, we have been manufacturing exceptional products for discriminating customers and, as a multi-generational family business; we are looking forward to the next 40 years.”
Mr. Alvis joined B.E. Meyers & Company, Inc. in September 2012 from ITT Exelis where he previously served as Vice President, International Business Development. In his eight years at the company, he also served as Vice President, Strategy and Business Development and Vice President Programs for ITT Night Vision. He is a retired U.S. Army Colonel whose 26-year career included command of infantry, cavalry and combat aviation units. He also served three assignments in the Pentagon, the last as Chief of Congressional Activities in the Office of Chief of Staff for the Army, and he has been awarded the Army Distinguished Service Medal and holds the Master Army Aviator designator.
Mr. Alvis states “I am both honored and humbled to be selected by the Meyers Family to succeed Brad in the position of CEO, and I am extremely pleased that he will remain in a full-time capacity driving product innovation as CEO Emeritus. It is also my pleasure to announce that Clint Meyers will assume the duties of Director of Business Development and Mark Cameron will be promoted to Director of Engineering, joining Matt Meyers and Kendra Carlucci as Directors and Steve Oliver as COO/CFO.”
Prior to joining ITT in 2004, Mr. Alvis held positions with Thales North America, which specializes in tactical communications, night vision and advanced weaponry, and with L3 Communications, where he directed the Army Strategic Leadership Program.

There Is A Lot Going On At Panteao Productions
Wednesday, November 20th, 2013First out of the gate, Panteao Productions has a TV show coming down the pike called Make Ready TV.
Panteao Productions is pleased to announce the upcoming launch of Make Ready TV, a new television show that will be airing on the Pursuit Channel and Wild TV. The thirty minute show is based on the Make Ready with the Experts training series from Panteao Productions.
Hosted by Matt Jacques and Ceilidh Jeans, Make Ready TV will be presenting viewers each week with different instructors and different topics based on Panteao’s hundreds of hours of training content from over two dozen instructors.
Matt Jacques, founder of Victory First, is one of Panteao’s more recent additions to the instructor line-up.
“I am excited about the opportunity to expand my opportunities with Panteao Productions. I am humbled to be associated with the Instructors within the cadre of Panteao, and now honored to be asked to help highlight them on Make Ready TV,” said Matt Jacques.
Ceilidh Jeans is the daughter of Bill Jeans, another of Panteao’s instructors.
“What a great opportunity for viewers who might not have otherwise had a chance to take a class and learn from some of these top instructors. I’m excited to join this great team that will facilitate this helpful information to a whole new audience!” said Ceilidh Jeans.
“Growing up in a household with her mother and I, Ceilidh was exposed to the importance of training and the rights of self-defense and firearms ownership for most of her life. We are delighted to have her come aboard as part of the Panteao Team and hope for a long and successful run for Make Ready TV,” said Bill Jeans.
“The show’s primary focus is on the one-on-one training between our instructors and the viewers. If a viewer likes what he or she sees on the television show, we have hours of additional content from the instructors available right on our website or via mobile device. No other show on television has that depth of training content available,” said Fernando Coelho, president and CEO of Panteao Productions.
Fernando continued with, “There are other great firearms related shows out there that cover new products from manufacturers and other content. That’s not what we’re offering. Our plan is to stay in our lane and focus on what we do best: present the top instructors to viewers that want the training.”
As with the instructional videos from Panteao, Make Ready TV is being filmed in HD format using multiple cameras and a crew with an extensive background in motions pictures, television, action sports, and law enforcement.
The show will start airing in January 2014.
Next up, Panteao is presenting an in-depth look at the FN SCAR with Matt Jacques of Victory First who was involved with the development of the weapon.
