Helping Small Businesses Grow and Protect Themselves, One Conversation at a Time

Small business owners sometimes need help understanding the best ways to establish their website, branding, and overall online presense. Unfortunately, most of that stuff isn't "set and forget." Entreprenuers oftentimes need more personalized help than Small Business Association (SBA), Small Business Develpment Centers (SBDCs), and their network connections provide. That's where I come in.

I don't simply write and review code. Before anything, I consult advise on the best ways to optimize your website and social media to match your goals, attract your target audience, protect data, and save time, all in plain English. I could talk about the digital marketing funnel, business continuity plan, etc. However, applying those frameworks and methodologies to a specific business, or "use case," require more research and experience. The most popular option isn't always best for your needs. I provide that assistance, currently through Parker Dewey micro-internships. You can use my contact form to notify me of a project you've posted or request a quick webisite audit.

Notable skills: cPanel, SEMRush, WordPress, Linux.
