Bill Slater

What I bring to the table is forty years of business and management experience combined with access to very powerful web technologies. I can give you specialized advice and strategies you can't find anywhere else, with the intended result of giving you an unfair advantage over your competitors as well as increased sales and profits.

In addition to this online consulting business, I own a successful online business that sells products.

I understand the challenges of making your site a profit center instead of a cost center. I'm in the trenches just like you are.

I have a M.B.A. from UCLA and B.A. in Business Economics from Claremont McKenna College in Claremont, California.

Elizabeth Harris

I've worked in some form of marketing for over 35 years, during which I've refined and sharpened my skills, narrowing them to marketing strategies and writing.

Before starting my consulting business in 1999, I worked in the corporate world for 10 years for Weyerhaeuser, Ore-Ida Foods, Ward Enterprises and other corporations in hospitality management, both in California and Washington. I then went to public sector and served as Program Director of the YWCA for eight years, while simultaneously working as a Trainer/Consultant for Girls Incorporated, New York.

Throughout my career, I've operated several businesses of my own and understand the challenges in today's internet environment. Although each business is idiosyncratic, they all benefit from applying intelligent practices, solid research and good strategies.

My degree is in Social Psychology from Western Washington University's Fairhaven College. Actually, that's not entirely accurate…Fairhaven College is an academy where each student designs his or her own degree path. I designed mine around the key cultural elements and social dynamics that shape and influence the psychology of the individual. But it's far more recognizable to just say 'a degree in Social Psychology.' You get the idea…

Stephen M. DiPietro

I am a technology expert. I bring expertise in software engineering and systems engineering to the team.

My career spans a wide range of research, analysis, architecture, design, implementation, and testing. I helped fly the Space Shuttle. Does that make me a "Rocket Scientist" too? If it is broken, I can fix it. If it isn't broken, I haven't tested it yet.

My business is incorporated as Northwest Technology Services, Inc. There is nothing like running a business to learn how one works.

I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics from the University of Washnington.
