I'm a no-nonsense kind of guy, straight shootn'. I'm not the best politician so my responses are very short and to the point. I'm originally from the Milwaukee area. I attended college in Marquette, MI and have been a project manager for the past 13 years. I also own a business and enjoy spending time with my family; wife, Michelle and two boys, Alex and Oliver. Over the years, I've worked hard to learn the most I can about my trade and share it with those willing to listen. I have strong convictions, values, and work ethic. I enjoy volunteering and working with business owners to solve problems; leaving things better than I found them. My motto is to be real and have an impact. As a senior in H.S. I was challenged with a serious heart surgery. This opened my eyes and allowed me to see early on that life is a gift and the talents that God gave me shouldn't be wasted or put off. Please write in and respond to my blog posts or website content. I love feedback and thoughful discussion. Make it a great day!
Get Social, Go Local

This is a new type of technology that provides the shopper magazine with an online social networking presence... like having your very own FaceBook website.
Each customer can come to the site and sign up for free. They can look at business profiles, print coupons, post local events to the community calendar, upload pictures to their own personal album(s), and participate in groups and forums.
All of this activity creates a place for customers to socialize and play.. communicate and form stronger relationships... with friends and local businesses.
The result is that people spend more time on the site and will potentially respond to banner advertisements. The value to the customer is a centralized site for business profiles, coupons, and classified ads.
If you would like to learn more about hos this could benefit your company please let me know... I would be happy to give you a demo of the software.
