I have known Mike Ronayne for over 25 years and unconditionally recommend both him and his company, Amherst Partners. Mike is a first-class professional and literally brings decades of experience in senior technology roles to the table, something literally unheard of in the small business e-commerce development marketplace.

What many of Mike's clients don't even realize is that Mike isn't the typical guy who worked his way up to running his own web site business. Quite to the contrary, Mike is a multi-decade veteran of the IT industry and a fully vetted world-class consultant who has in the past been personally tasked with advising senior management of Fortune 500 companies such as Xerox, Wells Fargo Bank, Digital Equipment and DirecTV, and helping them form e-commerce strategies for their organizations. He worked his way down to his current role, out of personal choice to place lifestyle values ahead of maximum profit opportunity.

Although senior consulting roles that pay upwards of $500/hr are still available to Mike, he prefers to avoid the international travel and hectic lifestyle demands of the very senior consulting roles he held in the past, and chooses instead to run a humble web development business that he can operate in his home town without need for extensive travel. The extraordinary opportunity this creates for the small business owner is the chance to receive both strategic advice and hands-on development services from a guy whose experience is so vast that under normal circumstances, he would typically manage a team of 50 or 100 software engineers. His services are absurdly under priced given his extensive background and experience, but Mike seems to prefer the slower lifestyle and the opportunity to work directly with small business owners. In short, Mike Ronayne's Amherst Partners is a once-in-a-lifetime find. You simply can't go wrong with Mike Ronayne.
