Aaron Michael Buch
Everyone thinks the status quo is safe, but I know breaking it brings real success.
I’ve always pushed boundaries, but in business, I realized early on that few people did. In corporate America, I couldn’t stand sitting in meetings, watching everyone follow a playbook that clearly needed rewriting if we were going to make a mark. Most people are just trying to tick boxes. I’m here to break those boxes and throw them out. From the start of my career, I’ve felt an urgency to help businesses break free from the sea of sameness and step into a space where they’re unique, memorable, and truly stand out—no matter the industry.
The issue isn’t just about being “boring.” The issue is that playing it safe never gets a business where it really wants to go. I’ve never seen a company reach its potential by being overly cautious. Too often, indecision eats away at boards, stopping them from testing ideas, gathering feedback, and refining strategies until they’re right. There’s no better feeling than getting that balance just right.
Eventually, I left the corporate world and started a company where we could rewrite the rules. That’s how Gaels Group was born. Later, I founded Hexapoint Health, designed to shake up healthcare and show doctors and practices how to set themselves apart in meaningful ways.
I’m not going to ask you if “you’re ready to stand out,” because that makes me cringe. You’re ready. Start the conversation now. Make progress today. Book a no-sales, no B.S. call with me directly for 15 minutes, and let’s see if my team and I are the right fit to help you get there.
Business.
Hey there. Aaron here—Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Gaels.com and Hexapoint.com digital marketing and creative agencies.
I bring clients a blend of creative and strategic thinking shaped by years as an artist, combined with more than 16 years of business experience. This mix lets me approach challenges with both fresh ideas and a focus on results.
I’ve come to see that people value ideas, not just services—anyone can provide a service, but a truly original, impactful idea is what stands out. That’s where I come in. I thrive on both ends of the spectrum: from developing those big, unique ideas to handling the detailed execution that brings them to life.
Whether I’m building out a brand narrative or working through a complex strategy, I pull from a unique blend of artistic insight and business know-how to create solutions that actually last.
I’ve been asked about my leadership style. First, I’d say it’s definitely hands-on and adaptable, shaped by years of collaborative writing. I aim to build environments where everyone feels supported and ready to contribute, like the creative spaces I’ve always been drawn to.
I see leadership as its own kind of creative process. Just like a song or painting needs both vision and flexibility, so does running a company. Each project needs a balance of strategy and space for the unexpected, which often leads to the best ideas. I approach challenges from multiple angles, finding solutions that hit that sweet spot between creative and practical.
Building a culture that values creativity, efficiency, and authenticity is core to my philosophy. I’m here to create a space where innovation thrives and everyone’s motivated to bring their best. For me, success isn’t just about metrics—it’s about fostering a culture that leaves a lasting impact, in our work and in how we work together.
Musician.
For me, music is far more than a hobby. It’s something that deeply influences my business acumen and creativity. With around 20 years of experience playing guitar and drums, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with top producers and engineers. Releasing three albums, with more on the way, has not only deepened my skills but also refined my understanding of the subtle dynamics of storytelling and project needs.
I got into music because it just felt right, and that feeling hasn’t changed. Starting out, I had no idea how much I’d learn from jamming in garages and basement, working in studios, or collaborating with other musicians. Those moments have had a lasting influence on my leadership style.
For me, running a successful company is like composing a great song—different elements coming together in a way that just clicks.
Whether I’m launching a new digital marketing campaign or working on a new music track, my goal is the same: to create something memorable, impactful, and well-coordinated.
Writer / Director.
From the writer’s room to the boardroom, my creative journey has been anything but conventional. With a diverse portfolio that includes writing for TV shows and comedy, I’ve immersed myself in the art of storytelling.
Having sold shows to networks like HBO, I understand the nuances of pitching, selling, and delivering content that resonates with specific audiences.
These experiences have equipped me with skills that have translated into business leadership. Crafting a compelling story—whether in comedy or business strategy requires a deep understanding of audience psychology, timing, and the elements that truly connect with people. As a CEO and Executive, I draw on these storytelling skills to build brands, inspire teams, and drive operational excellence.
In the business world, I bring the same creative agility and strategic thinking honed through years in entertainment. The ability to captivate an audience and communicate ideas effectively is essential not only on stage but also in the boardroom. My multidisciplinary background allows me to navigate the complexities of business leadership, ensuring not only operational efficiency but also a culture of innovation and engagement.
Painter.
In the world of visual art, I’m drawn to the expansive, tactile nature of painting. There’s something about stretching a large canvas and letting imagination run wild on it. My go-to medium? Acrylics, especially in bold, neon hues that really pop. But don’t let the vivid colors fool you—there’s a method to the madness.
While each piece might look like a burst of spontaneous energy, there’s much more happening beneath the surface. Every stroke, dribble, and seemingly random smear is intentional, contributing to a larger story I’m aiming to tell. And what’s that story? Often, it mirrors philosophies and beliefs that resonate with me.
For me, painting feels like a high-stakes game of chess. Every move has to be deliberate; it’s as much about strategy and execution as it is about inspiration. Yet, just like in chess, there’s room for unpredictability—allowing for those unplanned moments that can shift the entire piece and add unexpected details, bringing a new layer to the story.
So, whether I’m in the boardroom or in front of a canvas, the principles remain the same: vision, planning, and a bit of room for the unexpected. The end goal? To create something that not only captures attention but also provokes thought and stays with you.
As of Q3 2023, I’ve worked directly with 2,471 healthcare providers on their marketing and advertising strategy since 2014. It’s possible I forgot some, so I rounded up to 2500.
An impressive track record of developing and leading succesfull marketing strategy for over 375+ healthcare facilities, including private practices, hospitals, and health systems. This unique experience is second to none.
Aaron has architected an impressive portfolio, skillfully blueprinting, constructing, launching and maintaining 128 websites—each a pixel-perfect piece of the digital tapestry and no ‘site’ set on slowing down. Okay, enough puns.
With over a decade and a half of business leadership, Aaron excels in managing diverse teams, vendors, and technologies, while specializing in strategic growth and marketing innovation.
