I started my first business as a teenager in college in the early seventies building electronic drum pads that featured in a few hit records of the day. I was driven by the urge to create something out of nothing and earn a living doing it. Fast forward to today that drive is as strong as ever. I have had the privilege of building a number of my own successful companies and taking leadership positions in enterprises founded by others.My experience encompasses all aspects of a business operation including production, development, sales, marketing, management, leadership and strategic planning. As the principal of Steve Garth Ink I apply that depth of knowledge and experience to the business development of my clients’ ventures. I execute on my client’s vision and ensure there is a sustainable profitable business model underpinning the business.As the principal of Data Media Sciences (DMS) I provide the analyses, reports and studies required by my clients wishing to finance new opportunities. If a client wishes to expand their business, enter a new market, buy a new business or sell their own, DMS provides corporate valuations, feasibility studies, market studies, business plans and other reporting to facilitate the acquisition of the required financing.Moreover, in the interests of full disclosure:I can hold an intelligent conversation with an app developer as well as a farmer, banker, real estate developer or race car driver.I have a tendency to step everyone’s game up.I’m blessed/cursed with both right brain and left brain full on at all times.I’m the epitome of grace under pressure.My clients tell me my eyes are constantly twinkling.I have been known to add a clause in my contract stipulating I receive a Starbucks card that never runs out until the end of the contract term.If I can be of any service please reach out. I’d welcome the opportunity to talk to you.
