Rick was the point person in the redesign and strategic positioning of our new website. His planning and strategic business skills integrate well with his wide and deep knowledge of search engine optimization. This synthesis quickly demonstrated that Rick not only knew what he was talking about (technical matters) but that also knew how to match the solutions to our business needs. The results are there. Of course, his intangibles - patience, flexibility and tact - are icing on the cake.

Dallas Bentley, Marketing Specialist Kennesaw State University

Two years ago when I decided it was time to take my business to another level, and had the "Aepiphanni/(epiphany)" I would need help to do so, I was blessed to engage Rick as my business consultant. Throughout our time working together, I've found Rick to be a wonderful and attentive listener with an extraordinary sense of humor. He sets clear expectations, is great at tailoring business plans and tasks to my work style and offers words of encouragement (even when I don't meet those expectations).



I feel extremely fortunate to have Rick "in my corner" and would highly recommend him as a key business partner, even VIRTUALLY ~ because that's the only way we have worked together with him in Atlanta, GA while I am in Cleveland, OH!

Exceptional, extraordinary service that exceeded my expectations!
