WHO'S WHO of Entrepreneurs Inducts Karen Faith Heller

April 24, 2001 - International WHO'S WHO, the member organization providing one-of-a-kind networking opportunities and directories to more than 80,000 members in 150 countries, has recently inducted Karen Faith Heller as one of their newest members of the International Who's Who of Entrepreneurs, having demonstrated exemplary achievement and distinguished contributions to the business community. Ms. Heller is the President and Chief Executive Officer of WayCoolPeople.com, Inc., an Executive placement company located in Addison, Texas.

WayCoolPeople began as the e-commerce solution to the Dallas-based brick-and-mortar executive recruiting company, Quality Quest. Founder, President and CEO, Karen Faith Heller, created Quality Quest to "fundamentally change the recruiting paradigm." Heller’s creed for Quality Quest was to ensure that candidates and clients received outstanding service, on-going feedback and progress reports, and that the candidate was the best qualified for the clients’ position. Heller created a new business model to replace the traditional recruiting model. 

Heller's background in Sales, Marketing and Technology with IBM, Creative Marketing Strategies, ARC and Verizon, enabled her to call on executives, managers and associates from her network and drive the business from a strategic technology perspective. Working with CEO's, Presidents and Division VP's, Heller worked to understand the client's business model and identified talented Executives and the teams that would ensure their success.

For her efforts with Quality Quest, Heller has been selected for the Leadership America class of 2001 and Who's Who in International Professionals for 2001. In addition, she was also selected by the Foundation of Women’s Resources to participate in the Year 2000 Class of Leadership Texas, and has been listed by "Today's Business Woman" magazine as a "Woman To Watch". She was profiled for television by Alexander Haig's "World Business Review". At the end of the first fiscal year of operation, Quality Quest was profitable, expanding and demonstrating a proven track record. Heller was ready to take the new recruitment business model and create an e-commerce solution.
