› Overview
Palm Beach Web Solutions is a website design, development, and maintenance company specializing in the needs of small businesses, owned and operated by Jason Carpentier [service@palmbeachwebsolutions.com]. Since 2002 it has expanded from a technical hobby to a full-fledged side-business once diverse clients found me requiring my services to expand. While I enjoy running a side-business, I have no desire to go full-time, as it would force me to raise prices, would no longer be fun, and would take away the following liberties:
Motivation |
Profit |
I am motivated by my own curiosity, not by a
paycheck. |
Maximizing profit may be your goal, but it's not mine. My goal is to provide low-cost, long-term solutions that help business in the long run. I don't have to charge as much as other firms. |
Flexibility |
Commitment |
I don't have to take unnecessary projects to meet budgets or deadlines. If I work for you, it's because I want to, not because I have to. On the other hand, if you need me to do something out of the way, I have the freedom to get creative. |
Since each project is mine alone, I'm dedicated to keeping things working. That's why I'll go extra steps to help keep things running. |
As a sole proprietor, I am here to work with you in each phase of web development--ensuring a consistent product. From our initial contact, I will wear the hats of:
| Sales Agent | answering all of your questions |
| Web Marketer | providing a preview of your custom solution |
| Web Designer | creating flashy and inviting visuals |
| Web Developer | programming background elements |
| Website Architect | maximizing the site for search engines |
| Information Technology | setting up email and automatic backups |
| Project Manager | keeping projects on time and under budget |
| Customer Service | tweaking the process as you see fit |
| Technical Support | making sure our solutions work for you |
| Accounts Receivable | offering financing and installment plans |
| Webmaster | providing continual website maintenance |
› History
Once I was exposed to web programming in college, I was hooked. I was able to manipulate something, see the effects immediately, and share it worldwide. During the summer of 2002, I partnered with Keith Lorinos, a fellow web-savvy engineering student, to form e-xposure web design. The business was re-branded in 2007 as Palm Beach Web Solutions, following my own advice to entrepreneurs that business names should obviously state the services they provide and markets they serve.
› Background in Development
My formal training is a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with concentration in Computer Engineering. Most web programming is just a modified version of C programming, a fundamental of any engineering discipline. I taught myself HTML, CSS, Javascript, DHTML, PHP, MySQL, Photoshop, and Adobe Flash.
› Background in Design
I have had an avid interest in art since I was young. I have drawn comic strips, published drawings in magazines, had art portraits on tour, and served as a cartoonist for two college newspapers. I enjoy bringing to the web my eye for design. I even spent a semester studying the nature of the visual system--how on a physiological level the eye and brain network together to generate a response that you may or may not pay attention to.
› Background in Human Beings
Nowadays, customer service is a laughable joke. I can't stand being
put on hold, pressing 1 for English, dealing with case numbers,
talking to people who need to put me on hold while they "look up the
record."
I take the old-fashioned approach to my clients: I arrange a
time to meet with you with the intent of listening. I then keep
ongoing conversations to make sure my clients are happy and getting
what they pay for, as soon as I can deliver it. I do this because when
I am a consumer, this is the kind of treatment I would love to have.
