Small Business
For small business clients I specialize in:

Technical Mentoring - The technical mentoring program is six months of unlimited access to me by e-mail, phone, fax, regular mail, etc. We can meet in person, as well, if convenient for both of us. I help people strategically (how to benefit from Internet technology, how to obtain higher utilization from existing technology investments, how to approach enterprise-scale projects in fortune 500 organizations, etc.), and tactically (what to say at the meeting tomorrow, critiquing proposals, reviewing designs and models, etc.).

Databases - Customer, marketing, survey and other types of databases. Using MS Access for small to medium projects, I provide data analysis, design and development of database and reports, forms and user-friendly interfaces to business information. Projects may also involve design of larger databases on production-strength RDBMS (Relational Database Management Systems) such as SQL Server, Sybase, Oracle, Informix, DB2, etc. Such systems are often needed for performance considerations when small databases grow into large projects.

Internet - Strategy, design and development. Web presence, web-site, marketing plan and development of business case.  Presentation development for customer value assessment and project proposals. Systems integration for small or large projects, defining customer scenarios and viewpoint analysis models. If you've got a great idea for a website that just needs the technical expertise to make it happen, call to discuss the possibilities at telephone: 770-953-0534.
