Local company offers big time Internet management for small budgets
Philosophically, the term brain in a jar refers to a focused thinking environment.
Techno-analysts go one step further, by believing if they could connect their brains to a computer, their ability to process information and problem solve could be expedited exponentially.
Meet Guy Edwards, owner of Brainjar Media, a 4-year-old Gresham marketing company committed to helping small businesses increase Internet visibility via their website and social media.
Edwards is an affable guy, with an eye for small detail, who is constantly plugged in to the needs of his clients.
One of the things Im proud of is that I can speak in English no Star Trek-techno jargon, he said. Ive worked in advertising all my life but Im a big fan of technology. What Ive been able to do is scale down what we would do for a big business, to fit a small business, and help you compete locally on a budget you can afford.
Brainjar Medias small tidy office hardly resembles the den of a techno geek, even though Edwards refers to himself as one. From a second floor perch overlooking Main Avenue and downtown Gresham, Edwards is never far from taking the pulse of neighboring small businesses.
A southeast Portland resident, Edwards grew up in Hillsboro. His lifelong passion for art led to work in graphic design, about the same time the Internet was born.
Everybody thought I was going to be an animator for Disney because I was always drawing something, Edwards said. Computers, to me, were a hobby. Since I grew up with the technology, I thought Id be illustrating comic books someday. But once I started designing websites 17 years ago, my art became my hobby.
