I owned and operated a chain of retail stores for 20 years, learning how to be a highly effective customer-facing operator.
In 1993, I founded an online service that unified an underserved community. By 1999, over four million members chatted for more than five million hours a month.
In 2007, we created ROI Genius™, an end-to-end, integrated SaaS business process platform that includes lead generation, sales, marketing, flexible line-item budgeting, and the measurement and reporting of activities.
Our wholesale technology business, Alternative Spaces, offers design services, UI/UX and 3D modeling, web, Android, IOS development, VR/AR/MR, and integration of IoT devices.
Our newest company is ExtendaTouch, matches unpaid family caregivers, enabling them to connect with each other to share tips, lessons learned, and support.
We offer direct links to more than 10,000 non-profits. ExtendaTouch is free, anonymous, and safe for more than 53 million unpaid caregivers.
