Founder & President of Internet Services Group - We build results oriented web sites on time.
Fort Myers, Florida Area
I am incredibly passionate about technology & helping people achieve their goals in life, in business and on the Internet.
I was fortunate enough to retire at the age of 29, and have the freedom to create a business (Internet Services Group of Florida, LLC) based on the ideals of:
* Aligning our team's individual passions in life with their work for incredible job satisfaction.
* Playing "above the line" meaning we're all about accountability, having ownership in what we do, and being responsible for our actions.
* Knowing our industry constantly changes, and having weekly meetings where constantly evaluate those changes, keep an open mind, and incorporate them into our solutions.
Most of my team has worked with me since my TSS days in the early 90's.
We're interested in helping individuals and businesses who:
* enjoy being part of the creative process,
* enjoy very personal service, and
* enjoy the ability to count on us as if we were an extension of their team.

October 2002 — Present (5 years 8 months)
I'm the founder and president of Internet Services Group of Florida, LLC, our core competency is web site design, web site development, and web hosting. We also are heavily involved in print and video work.
A complete list of services is available on our web site.
Over the last year, we've perfected the ability to create custom web sites in days rather than months - and have debuted this technology with our Web Starter Kit.
The true beauty of what we do is that we give our customers the ability to edit their sites with our very own ISG Content Manager, AND we train our customers until they get it -- guaranteed.
Each of us are all about honesty, truth, and assuring anyone who becomes part of our extended family is treated with the utmost respect.
We are accountable for our actions, take ownership in what we do, and are very responsible as well.
This philosophy lends itself to the very fact that we're all about results, and are very passionate about what we do.

August 1995 — October 2001 (6 years 3 months)
I founded and owned Internet Services of Michigan, Inc., which grew to serving 10,000 dial up users, and hosting & servicing 1,500 businesses in the Southeast Michigan area (Livingston, Oakland, and Wayne counties) throughout the late 1990's.
I hired our extremely talented crew which amounted to 15 incredible individuals in 2000 and still work with most them in my new business, Internet Services Group of Florida, LLC. In 2001, Don Prior III formed Network Services Group, LLC in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which is where the rest of the ISMI team works today.
In late 2000, ISMI was acquired by Internet Services Management Group out of Chicago. After a small transitional period, I left and soon thereafter formed Internet Services Group of Florida, LLC in beautiful Fort Myers, Florida.

June 1989 — August 1995 (6 years 3 months)
My primary objective with Total Systems Support, Inc. (TSS), was to take a small operation, add in the common elements of a structured business and build out a profitable computer consulting & telecommunications company.
I was very fortunate in that the President of TSS was a very kind person who handed me the reigns, and said "Go for it!"
In 5 short years, I hired an amazing crew (most of whom still work with me today), and we increased TSS's sales on average 40% year over year.
We concentrated on Computer Sales & Service for both Home & Business, and it was at TSS where I started offering Basic Training for Computers.
One of my biggest achievements at TSS was founding and operating "Livingston County On-Line" (LCOL) which was a 12 line Bulletin Board System.
As the Internet gained popularity, we added Internet E-mail, and on my birthday I went on my own and founded Internet Services of Michigan, Inc., to meet their growing need.
