My name is Markus Nelson, a self made entrepreneur and founder of Blue Light Labs Multimedia (www.bluelightlabs.com), an Atlanta based web design consulting company that has grown consistently over the last 6 years by providing quality web site designs, interactive multimedia presentations, and ecommerce solutions. I like to wear many hats in the company, keeping my blood flowing and my thirst for the adventure of being an entrepreneur alive. Over the last 12 months I have had the opportunity to expand my company with the help of new partners and the opening of our new office in Inman Park, Atlanta Georgia.
After settling my company in Atlanta over the last 6 months, I have felt a great sense of strength in having the ability to meet driven people. Exchanging ideas about web design and web development with other Atlanta local freelance professionals has had such a positive impact on me.
Visiting the local restaurants and internet cafe's in Atlanta has givin me the opportunity to meet several influential entrepreneurs and freelance artists. Places like the Albert, Inman Perk Café, Neighbors Pub, Chocolaté Café, and The Local are great hangouts to meet young professionals and exchange ideas. Atlanta is a fast growing city that has a great deal of potential and influence on the web developer community. Like New York or LA, Atlanta has a unique city footprint that you immediately feel part of when living and working in Atlanta. Unlike many larger cities, Atlanta still has an almost “small town” warmth and a great deal of un-tapped resources and opportunities.
The people I have met in Atlanta have been very open and welcome the exchange of ideas and opportunities. Most of our local competitors have been open and eager to engage in expanding a local Atlanta network of resources that we all can benefit from. From this pool of individuals I was able to form a great team that I think will take Blue Light Labs to the next level.
David Hunt, my new business partner and lead developer, is both driven and overflowing with ideas. David is the founder of the Holodyn Corporation (www.holodyn.com) that gave birth to Webuddha (www.webuddha.com), which has built many quality websites and dynamic solutions for Atlanta based businesses. Being both a self made cynosure of technology and detail, David seemed to be the perfect match as a partner and team member for Blue Light Labs. Both David and myself have spent the last 6 years growing our individual companies, building a healthy network by providing quality and value. We are both proud to experience the sense of accomplishment found in having grown two successful companies from scratch without venture capitol or bank loans.
Recently Blue Light Labs brought on David Warren and Travis Christopher from Liquid Squid Studios (www.liquidsquidstudioes.com). David and Travis both share the same goals and direction, and have came to us with a professional set of skills that are aiding us in expanding our quality service and product offerings. David Warren has a extensive background in marketing and sales, and has proven himself a great illustration artist and binding element for our team. David has been a corner stone in helping Blue Light Labs to establish client trust, additionally taking on many project management and office administration roles. Travis Christopher has proved himself in becoming our lead graphic designer and Photoshop specialist. Travis has a background in sculpture and mixed media, with an eye for quality and a heart for client satisfaction. Our clients have been very impressed with the skill set and ideas Travis has brought, pushing our team to a new level of quality and style with all projects.
Now with the support of a new team and the strength we gain from a central office, the synergy and flow of our projects is improving and maturing exponentially. Blue Light Labs is now an official member of the Holodyn Network, a network devoted to providing Atlanta based businesses with quality business development support solutions, dedication to quality communication and support for our clients.
