About Rick Nielsen

I make it my job to filter out the noise and direct the small business owner to the 10% of applicable knowledge on the internet. From early on, my philosophy has not been to forever tether the client to myself for information. Instead, I would much rather enable the small business owner, by providing a tutorial on developing internet skills and then sending the client off in the right direction with a well designed roadmap.
