Jim Mansfield’s Summary
I am an Internet entrepreneur that has started two companies in the Internet Marketing arena. After a short career as an IT industry consultant, I started my first company in 2000-2001 to sell and promote products on the web. After mixed success my partner and I convinced a client to back us in a new venture that became Vayan Marketing Group in early 2002. I started as the "tech guy" and ended up as the CEO based on my passion for strategic planning and relationship building. We slowly grew Vayan (recently sold to a private equity firm) over the next 4 years and achieved significant growth and success before I left in early 2006 to run Intela full time.
Intela, a global online advertising and lead generation company, has grown very quickly in its first two years to become a well recognized and respected industry company in both the US and the UK. Intela has a great team that has over 30 terrific team members and growing. In 2008 we plan to open an office in the UK to support a business that is already over half our sales. In addition we are building our business in Australia, Canada and the other parts of Europe.
