Meet Sam Bloedow
"The only barriers in life are those you have created with your own mind."
Growing up in an entrepreneurial family, the idea of creating and operating a business always intrigued me. It was something growing up that I knew I always wanted to do. What I didn’t readily realize was my enthusiasm for technology. Looking back I have fond memories of playing games on our Apple IIe, but it wasn’t until high school that it clicked. I was strongly considering becoming an accountant, and I remember walking away after a job shadowing experience reflecting on what I liked most. I liked the numbers but what I really liked was how they leveraged technology.
After I graduated from college, I worked on a federal project managing networks of testing labs they used to certify and hire the first TSA employees across the nation. Once the project was completed, I moved back to Sleepy Eye where I grew up.
In 2002 I started with an idea to bring fair, honest, and reasonably priced IT services to small to medium businesses in southern, MN. While we have grown a lot since then, our core values still connect with the originating idea.
I am passionate about creating and helping. Creating a business that helps our customers focus on growing their business by freeing their time from IT hassles. Creating a workplace that helps the people who form the amazing team we have, further advance in their career and provide for their families.
