Success Story - Chris Reid & Shawn Westerhoff
We knew from the beginning what we wanted to do. But how to get there? That’s where we needed help!" exclaims Chris Reid, co-founder of Verus Technology Solutions.
"We meet with our company’s advisors twice a year, but during the months between our meetings we found it difficult to stay focused. We needed a better system. The Business Group was just what we needed. The monthly group meetings plus the one-on-one with Mike keeps our vision clear and us focused on what we needed to do to be successful."
Chris Reid and Shawn Westerhoff launched Verus Technology Solutions in 2001. They target small and medium-sized businesses between 25 and 100 desktops that have an increasing dependence on technology to run their daily operations, yet don’t have a vendor that they trust for all technology issues, from end-user support to key strategic issues involving technology.
"We find the group meetings to be a great place to discuss our plans and ideas and get quality feedback from the other business owners we know and trust," adds Shawn. "Our one-on-one meetings with Mike are perfect to talk about the details of our plans and any other confidential issues we have, such as about employees.
"During our tenure with The Business Group, we have been able to work on expanding our services and client base to a level where we had to hire more employees to handle the business. The value of the support, guidance and ideas that we get from The Business Group has proven to be more valuable than we ever expected."
