What’s the hardest client challenge you’ve overcome?

11/21/2025

If you ever need professional, licensed security or investigative services — reach out to Hedge Investigations & Security.

You can contact Mark D**g directly through the BNI Westside Business Partners network or look up Hedge Investigations & Security online.

Mark’s often out protecting clients, so a quick text or voicemail is the best way to reach him — and he’ll get back to you as soon as he’s off duty. 🔒

Mark’s ideal referrals are businesses, professionals, or venues that need security, executive protection, investigations, or process service on a regular or event-based basis.

Top Referral Types:

🏛️ Attorneys — especially in personal injury and family law (for process service, investigations, or courtroom security).

⚖️ Judges and legal professionals who require trustworthy and licensed process servers.

💒 Event halls, churches, and wedding venues — for on-site event security and crowd management.

🎤 Wedding and event planners — who want reliable, professional security teams for their clients’ events.

💍 High-end jewelers or retail shops — who need protection during high-value transactions or events.

🏫 Private schools or campuses — for regular patrols, perimeter checks, or daily security presence.

💬 How to Refer Mark

If you hear someone say things like:

“We need security for an event.”

“I have a client who needs someone served.”

“We’re looking for a trustworthy bodyguard or investigator.”
→ That’s a referral for Mark.

“When I first joined BNI, I thought I was just signing up for a networking group. What I found was a community that genuinely wants to see each other win.” — Jeff Holsomback, Best Bet Roofing

Since joining BNI Westside Business Partners almost four years ago, Jeff’s business has grown 20–25%, thanks to the power of trusted relationships and consistent referrals. He says his favorite core value is Building Relationships, because in his words:

“When relationships are built on substance, you can go months without talking — and still pick up right where you left off.”

Jeff credits BNI with helping him connect with realtors, business owners, and homeowners who truly value integrity and long-term trust — the same principles that built Best Bet Roofing into a company serving over 6,500 customers with an A+ BBB rating and 50-year GAF warranties.

That’s the power of relationships done right. 💪

When asked which BNI core value means the most to him, Jeff Holsomback of Best Bet Roofing didn’t hesitate — it’s Building Relationships.

For Jeff, business growth starts with trust. He believes that when relationships are built on real connection and integrity, they stand the test of time — even when months go by without contact. That philosophy has helped Jeff’s business grow 20–25% through BNI, and it’s the same foundation he’s built Best Bet Roofing on for over 15 years.

“When you take the time to build genuine relationships, referrals don’t just happen — they last.”

Before you hire someone for private security, executive protection, or investigations — there’s one thing you should always check.

Licensing.

As Mark D**g from Hedge Investigations & Security explained, every professional in the security industry must be licensed by the state. That means carrying a “guard card” and operating under a B or C license, depending on the service. It’s what separates the professionals from the pretenders.

If someone shows up without credentials, or doesn’t look the part, that’s your red flag. True professionals take pride in doing things the right way — with integrity, accountability, and respect for the people they protect.

When safety’s on the line, details matter. 🔒

11/18/2025

What makes Hedge Investigations & Security unique isn’t just what they do — it’s how they do it.

Mark D**g and his team, led by owner Henry, combine professionalism, licensing, and real-world experience to bring a higher standard to private security. Every officer holds the proper state credentials — whether it’s a B license for full security services or a C license for private investigations — and carries a guard card to show they’re fully qualified.

Their work covers everything from armed security and executive protection to private investigations and process service, but what really sets them apart is their professionalism and accountability. As Mark puts it, “Accountability ties all the other values together.”

When you see the Hedge team on site — clean uniforms, calm presence, and clear communication — you know you’re in capable hands. 🔒

11/18/2025

After years of teaching martial arts and protecting people through self-defense, Mark D**g decided to take his lifelong passion for safety to the next level. Nearly two years ago, he became a licensed private security professional and launched Hedgeinvestigations.com, offering armed security, executive protection, private investigation, and process service.

What started as a skill became a calling — protecting people with professionalism, integrity, and heart. 💪
