Scott's passion for applying nascent computing technology to business helped him build his own company. It eventually led to a series of other jobs in business development and operations management. And finally, it inspired him to launch Optimo Web Solutions, whose mission is to "simplify the Internet era" by connecting small business owners with elegantly simple web-based solutions.

In Scott's view, today's Internet "Is more than just a place to promote products and services. The Internet is becoming a platform that can be used to operate a business."

This belief comes after 18 years watching Internet technology evolve. "I realized that my relationship with the Internet was no longer about just website hosting and email. It was no longer about just reading what others published about products and services."

"I noticed an increase of cost effective web-based solutions for business operations. I began participating and collaborating in various online forums for support."

And that's where Optimo Web Solutions comes in.
