Technology Consulting Meeting
Daniel and Ben ESG

Our Story

A battle hardened business veteran joining forces with a young sales and marketing genius sounds like a pitch for a new show this fall on Netflix! We’re working on that! Just kidding. Daniel Harris and Ben Ten Pas met in 2018 in past business lives working on solving problems together in the technology world. The old dog and the young gun recognized something familiar in each other.  The energy created by joining forces was something special. Both Daniel and Ben knew that business solutions could be done swiftly and better by eliminating corporate bureaucracy and red tape. Keep it simple!

 

Daniel called Ben to ask him to join his proposed start up. Ben promptly hung up on Daniel. Instead of taking this as a hard no, Daniel waited till Ben had better cell reception on his 3000 mile road trip to Yellowstone National Park. Ben had a few hours to think about his answer and he decided to join Daniel as a co-founder of ESG. The rest is a script that is being written and invented every day and week. The future is so bright that cool sunglasses are mandatory at ESG indoor and outdoors! ESG is here to be a technology force to be reckoned with.  Customers like what ESG is selling because the truth resonates with them.
