- Jay is the Creative Director and Founder of Jab Web Solutions Inc.

In case you're not familiar with our company, let me take a moment to tell you our story. It's been five years since I stepped away from my job at a large financial firm to fulfill my dream of starting my own business. Realizing it would be possible to combine my experience in financial services, with my passion for graphics and web design, I founded JAB Web Solutions.

It might seem cliché, but I started JAB (my initials by the way) out of my garage with a few servers, a new monitor the size of a salt-water fish tank and the knowledge that I could fill a glaring void in the web design market. I've always known that someday I would open my own business, and in my previous position I was working with dedicated, energetic Investment Advisors who all had one thing in common....an undeniable entrepreneurial spirit. I actually learned how to run a successful web site studio from my RIA clients. The main lessons I learned can be applied to almost any business: 1) Provide a premium service 2) Work harder than everyone else 3) Respect your clients, and treat them well.

I knew that starting my own Web Design Studio for Advisors would be a challenge, but I was confident that I would be able to fill a real need in the "Websites for Advisors" space. There were a few large companies that offered Advisors website services, but there was no true custom option. The only choice was to pick from a set of cookie-cutter websites and maybe change the color and add a logo. You wouldn’t take a “one size fits all” approach to servicing your clients, so why settle for a website that reflects that sort of image?

Today, JAB Web Solutions has established a track record of success – defined by our satisfied clients. We remain focused on developing custom, professional-looking websites that support your efforts to communicate and build long-term relationships with your clients.
