I've been working as an Apple consultant since my first job designing a database for Walt Disney Imagineering back in 1994. Since then, I've owned three top IT consulting firms, managed publishing systems for a major magazine publisher, and provided it services and consulting for an amazing array of clients in Los Angeles, from ex-fighter pilots to working movie stars.
In fact, my clients have even included Apple, where I managed systems deployment for their developers conference for over ten years.
I also represented Apple in education and big business, working with Apple Professional Services for Education and Enterprise.
I've helped some very high-profile people out of serious trouble when they were hacked and needed someone to help pick up the pieces. I've also assisted others in defending themselves when the hacking wouldn't let up. I've helped clients build new businesses and grow existing ones.
I've assisted more than a few clients in ensuring that bad employees couldn't get back into their systems after being fired. I've designed and deployed so many wireless networks that I can't remember most of them, and I've fixed the poorly implemented networks of other companies even more frequently.
I've been a close friend and confidant to most of my small clients and some of my bigger ones. Over the years, I've built up quite a history and have seen it all, which has given me a particular set of skills. These days, clients pay me the most just to sit and talk with me. Sometimes we talk business, sometimes we talk personal, but usually, the two are too inextricably intertwined to separate.
I am what you would call a Fractional Chief Technology Officer (CTO). My role is to strategically lead and enhance your technology landscape, driving growth and innovation. As a Fractional CTO, I partner with clients to create and implement technology strategies that align with their business goals, ensuring long-term success. I offer strategic vision and high-level expertise, I am not here to fix your printer or troubleshoot everyday IT issues.
A Fractional CTO, sometimes known as a Virtual CTO, provides high-level technical leadership on a part-time or contract basis. This role is especially beneficial for companies that need expert guidance but may not have the resources for a full-time executive. Rates for Fractional CTOs can vary widely based on experience, location, and the scope of work. On average, Fractional CTOs charge between $150 to $500 per hour, with monthly retainers typically ranging from $3,000 to $10,000, depending on the level of engagement and responsibilities. You will find that I fit into the higher part of that range, and that the results you receive for that investment are worth it.
If your company needs strategic technological direction, whether for scaling operations, entering new markets, or navigating technological turnarounds, a Fractional CTO can provide the necessary expertise without the financial commitment of a full-time role. This arrangement allows businesses to benefit from seasoned technology leadership in a flexible, cost-effective manner.
My clients value my time because they value my experience, my perspective, and my ability to get almost anything done. That's what I do best; that is where my greatest value lies. Not in a certification any kid with a week of free time and an internet connection could get. Certifications can be important, but the value of a consultant with a certification isn't in the certification; it's in the consultant.
Am I your guy? I could be. It really depends on just a few things. First, are you a reasonably good person? Second, are you the type of person who recognizes the value of someone like me and feels lucky to have the opportunity to weave me into your unique situation? If you are those two things, I think you're my kind of client, and I'd be very happy to meet you.
