Hi. I'm Jim Brown.

From the US Marine Corps to marketing and sales and even a stint in pro wrestling, I’ve done a lot. That said, I believe there’s still a lot more to go.

See the companies I'm involved with

Founder. Salesman. Marketer. Investor.

I've founded or co-founded eight companies — Some successful, some not. I've sold services and software, and also consulted companies on how to increase revenue on the internet. Most recently, I've begun looking for investment opportunities.
