Here I am

e1evation, llc [pronounced elevation] is a small business that helps other small businesses. Working with you, I develop strategies and tactics to help elevate your company to new heights…

I am a former Apple regional business development manager [read my stuffy, official sounding bio here] that has a passion for helping small business owners get the tools they need to succeed. I live in rural Northeast Wisconsin but have my fingers on the pulse of trends and tools for small businesses and their owners. I have been working in marketing, sales, and technology for 25 years and like my ideal customer, I’m a passionate entrepreneur who is happy to share the things I’ve learned about making small businesses successful.

I’m currently doing a massive overhaul of the site so from time to time, some of the features may be broken or missing — most of the time I’m too busy working on client sites to work on my own! The archives on the left are blog posts that go back to the site launch. You can access the same content by topic underneath the menu bar or you can go directly to the blog by clicking ‘What I think…‘ in the menu bar. On the right are featured articles from my ongoing professional education in marketing, sales, and technology.

Browse the site, subscribe to my rss feed or electronic newsletter. Get a feel for what I offer. If you think I might be the business partner you’ve been looking for contact me — if I can’t help, you’ll be the first to know…

In case you’re wondering where the company name came from I included a video clip of the U2 song ‘elevation’ — ‘the goal is elevation‘. It’s not as crazy as you think — Bono named his venture capital company ‘Elevation Partners‘. It also explains why I had to name my company ‘e1evation’ because Bono had already taken the normal spelling for his domain name although I did not know he was the owner at the time — I gladly give him the right to use the domain… ;-)
