Our Team
Ronald L. Burgess
Ron Burgess became involved with entrepreneurship far before it was popular. At the University of Colorado Business School in the, no courses were offered for small business. Nearly all his classmates went to work for Fortune 500 firms. Instead, Ron opened a specialty retail store. Ten years, seven stores, and a small manufacturing plant later, he left his entrepreneurial endeavors and went to work for the nation’s largest retail merchandising consulting firm.
With three years as a field consultant, and four more as the Director of Product Development, he came into contact with hundreds of small businesses and their problems. An advocate of technology use by small business, he directed early PC software projects in the areas of automated decision making. During this time he became interested in automating the merchandising and marketing functions of business.
With an emphasis on using affordable technology and systems to give clients a strategic advantage, Burgess has shepherded and partnered three successful businesses as out-growths of his practice.
Ron’s background in small business management, and vast real-life experience in marketing and technology, creates a unique perspective which is so necessary in today’s new marketplace.
Ron holds degrees in Business and Graphics Arts. He is a frequent speaker on marketing technology and has written over 100 articles on management and marketing.
