It all started when Neal asked if I could review a new site that was part of the GeekBrief.TV family, Dear Cali, a Tech Answers and Advice blog by Cali Lewis host of GeekBrief.TV. I get asked this all the time in Techlife. Now by review, he meant provide him feedback, make suggestions, critique and generally give an impression of this new site, some companies call it beta testing too. I wrote Neal a nice email pointing out various small and large observations, suggestions and even a new business idea! He was floored. He thanked me and mentioned how impressed he was with the detail of the feedback. I told him it was no problem I do this for a living, which led to the question above, I know what you do, but what….do you do? That sparked two ideas. The best way to tell someone how I can help their business is to show them. I decided to build a quick case study into the world of my consulting practice, dk worldwide, inc, using Neal and his email.
