Happy National Donut Day, everyone!
Each member of our team brings their own unique flavor and personality to our group, and we thought it would be fun to share which donut they’d be if they had to choose. So today, we’re not just celebrating the delicious circles of fried dough we all love; we’re also shining a spotlight on the incredible Exectras team!
We pride ourselves on being your one-stop solution for Payment Processing, Fortune 500 Business Services, and Employee Benefits, all backed by features and pricing you won’t find anywhere else in the nation. It’s a unique combination of business solutions we offer, so it takes a special team to bring them to you.
We want our members to know who we are (just normal humans who love donuts) and feel confident that their business will flourish with the support of our exceptional team. What better way than knowing which donut they are?
From classic glazed to adventurous matcha cake, we’ll show you how our diverse talents and passions come together, just like the perfect box of donuts.
Get to know the Exectras Team, and their donut personalities…
Jose Amador
The Classic Glazed
Jose, our Account Executive, describes himself as the classic glazed donut.
It’s safe, but never boring. Also universally liked.
Every team needs one.
Joe Cherry
The Boston “Kreme”
Our Founder and CEO, Joe, states that the Boston Kreme Donut is his go-to donut.
What can I say except.. It has everything.. Chocolate on top and Boston custard on the inside… now that’s a doughnut!
Paul Hadfield
The Chocolate Glazed
If Paul, our VP of Strategic Partnerships, were a donut, he’d choose the chocolate glazed because “it’s straightforward and reliable!”
But Lindsey, our Director of Partner Relations, had something else to say about this…
If Paul H. were a donut-
Definitely a Matcha Cake Donut:
Clean, balanced, antioxidants, low sugar and quietly bold.
It’s got creative flair, thoughtful ingredients, and a vibe that’s both chill and energizing.
Whether it’s a power snack, zen moment or a refined treat, this donut brings discipline, originality, earthy and cool.
(Lindsey worked together with Paul at TRNXN, so she would know.)
Mike Gargano
The Boston Creme
Mike, our COO/VP of Operations and HR, chooses the Boston Creme as his donut of choice.
He also guessed correctly that Joe’s favorite donut is the same! (They are donut buddies.)
Mery Smith
Glazed Blueberry Cake Donut
Mery, our Senior Support Specialist, loves the glazed blueberry, stating, “You can have it for breakfast or a snack. The best of both worlds!”
Lindsey Kath
The Cinnamon Cake Donut
Lindsey, our Director of Partner Relations, chooses the Cinnamon Cake Donut from Sidecar Donuts, specifically. (This lady knows her donuts.)
She states, “It’s a safe choice, never too flashy but makes you feel warm and comforted and always hits the spot when fresh out of the oven. It will never be the donut left in the box, it’s always a crowd pleaser.”
Voted the team’s Top Donut Connoisseur, hands down.
Shawn Dalton
Shipley’s Donut Holes
Shawn, our Senior VP, chooses Shipley’s Donut Holes as his favorite donut.
He did not elaborate on why, but we think it’s because he’s upfront, no-nonsense, and can keep a lot of plates (or donut holes) up in the air with a smile on his face.
