We are incredibly excited and honored to announce that Eric Zeier will be one of our headline speakers at the 2026 Buford Business Expo! 🎤🔥
Eric brings an amazing background in leadership, business growth, teamwork, and perseverance — both on and off the field.
Many know Eric as the legendary University of Georgia quarterback who broke multiple SEC records, became a Heisman Trophy finalist, and later played six years in the NFL with teams including the Cleveland Browns, Baltimore Ravens, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 🏈
But Eric’s success didn’t stop with football.
Today, he serves as the National Sales Manager for Homeowners Financial Group, overseeing operations across 35 states and helping lead over $1.5 billion in funded production. Throughout his mortgage and leadership career, Eric has helped develop hundreds of loan officers and guided thousands of families toward homeownership.
Eric’s story is one of leadership, discipline, growth, and adapting success from sports into business — and we know attendees are going to walk away inspired and motivated.
