About

Welcome to the Steve Browne Direct web site!

I am the owner, Steve Browne, and I run the place. In addition, I have several related web sites, products that I have created in the niche, and many personal activities in my life related to family, church and community service and my hobbies (fly fishing being right at the top!)

I hope you’ll find this site well worth your time. If you plan to do business on the Internet, you have come to the right place for assistance.

Please understand that I will not waste your time. I know you have many choices to make when you go online and I consider it a privilege that you are here at my online “home.”

I will make you two promises:

First, I will never feed you spun or auto-generated content. It’s the lazy man’s curse and the Internet is overflowing with the stuff. I despise it and I know you’ll agree that 99.99% of it is pure rubbish! It is a waste of your time and an insult to your intelligence.

I will only post information that I have written myself, or other original content from others that I find outstanding and have been given license and/or permission to share with you.

Second, I hate spam. You hate spam. Nobody likes it, yet many continue to clog the Internet with it simply to make a few bucks. There are better ways to sell products and services online … for instance … providing things that clients and prospects actually want and ask for that will help them in their life or business.

My goal for having you here is to provide my readers with solid, professional content that will help them in their online money making endeavors, whatever they may be.

Let me be up front and say that I don’t believe I have all the answers! Business professionals are good with what they know and do … but it has been my experience that nobody does everything. We all focus on methods, models, and strategies that appeal to us! There are approaches and strategies in online business and marketing that I have never tried. If I have no experience with something you are interested in I will tell you. Or I will tell you what I believe having spoken to other professionals about the subject.

Unlike many self-proclaimed business “experts” online, my education and career (mostly offline) fit perfectly with the niche subject of small business creation and execution.

Here is my story – and it will be brief:

I live in Pleasant Grove, Utah on the western slope of the Rocky Mountains at the base of Mt. Timpanogos. I am married and have four grown and married children and fourteen grandchildren.  Yes, I’ll admit the personal photo above is pretty sketchy, but it’s all that I have right now!

I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in sociology and a Master’s Degree in Public Administration from BYU (Brigham Young University) located in Provo, Utah.

My working career consisted of thirty plus years working in the field of economic development – assisting both public and private entities in the business of job creation. My focus has always been on small business development as the best means of growing local economies. In sum, I help small businesses to be successful as a strategy for growing our local and regional economies.

I have helped many, many local businesses and I believe I can help you.

Please join our mailing list so we can keep in touch. We often send valuable tools and resources (as well as content) to you that you will only receive as a loyal subscriber! Know that I don’t believe in constantly hammering my list with paid offers – I am a publisher of online business content and most of it is free to my subscribers. My goal is to make all of my content relevant and valuable to my followers as they create and run their small online businesses.

Finally, I encourage your participation in our web site discussions. Feedback is critical to us so let us know your concerns, wishes, and feelings. Here’s to your online business success!
