What's your business, and who are your customers?
eGuide is disrupting the way small organizations do business. We are passionate about helping small teams work smarter in a digital age. Living in a world where each digital tool on the market comes with a subscription cost, eGuide examines how to get the most out of the platforms small teams use. With a focus on self-funded small businesses and emerging nonprofits, we establish a strong groundwork to grow in both the digital marketing and business operation spaces. Our clients find true technology guides in their partnership with eGuide, and we treat every project with a hospitality-first approach that centers around training.
Tell us about yourself
I started eGuide in 2016 with a mission to help individuals be more proficient with the technology they use on a daily basis. The company was a reaction to my grandfather's passing, the role that technology could have played in saving his life, and my grandmother's exposure to technology the year following. eGuide 1.0 was driven by helping individuals, but since I had left a career in the events & hospitality industry to start the business, I quickly realized it was not just "baby boomers and beyond" that needed support with becoming more proficient with technology, it was most every small business owner, nonprofit leader, and even new-hires who may have flubbed a bit on checking the "proficient in Microsoft Excel box" on their resume. By 2018, it was clear that we could have a much greater impact on technology proficiency by focusing on small organizations.
