Marty brings a career of geek+media to SMB Nation from a brother from another mother. Marty spent 15+ years at Reseller Advocate Magazine/RAM TechInight which is a closely aligned integrated media company in the hardware and system builder space. Needless to say, Marty has been a quick study in the SMB Nation way as it’s not far afield. Marty’s primary role concerns business development. Right now with our focus on Office 365, we have many supporters who want to do goodness in the community. Marty’s your man. He is also driving content to the sites and assisting Queen Jenny in production coordination.
