Experienced Internet Producer

I built a commercial website before there were websites. In 1992, programmer Jeff Heaton and I invented PrinterCom, an "electronic data interchange value added network," or EDI-VAN (corporate websites didn't begin popping-up in force until 1995). With PrinterCom, commercial printers and their customers could bid on, and award, printing jobs through their modems. In 1992, it was a very early stab at what later became known as "e-commerce."


In 1995, I produced one of the early corporate websites in St. Louis -- for telecom pioneer Brooks Fiber Communications.  This site was primitive by today's standards, but in 1995 it was cutting-edge.

Starting in 1999, with my Fleischmann's Yeast client, I have directed the creation of what some newspaper editors continue to call "one of the best online newsrooms in the U.S. food business."  ACH Food Companies, Inc. acquired the Fleischmann's Yeast consumer business in 2004, resulting in Argo Corn Starch and Karo Corn Syrup being added in 2005.  Check out the online newsroom.


I am also experienced in e-mail marketing, having produced scores of successful e-mail campaigns since 2002.

Naming stuff is a specialty of mine.  I am the creator of some interesting software titles, network names and domain names, including:
Printercom,
CompareWare,
PraisePoints.com,
DemocracyMotor.com,
ShowMeShowRoom.com,
ENEXENE.com and, coming soon, Berger, Missouri's new e-zine: "BergerWithCheese.com."




I invented the name "goodfibes" for a 2004 Fleischmann's Yeast high-fiber bread recipe program, and the client liked the name and logo so much they printed it on millions of yeast packages for three years.


Today, I'm harnessing exciting emerging Internet technologies for my clients. Everything is on the table: including search engine optimization (SEO); Internet advertising; link-trading; newswire, RSS 2.0 and ATOM 1.0 feeds; Wiki; Amazon and eBay; blogs; YouTube; and social bookmarking networks.

With 16 years of experience in building digital networks and websites, I am an Internet veteran who can help you exploit the amazing, exploding Internet opportunities before you.
