A strategic alliance was formed between these high-tech giants, which created the need for a comprehensive “go-to-market” strategy. The challenge was to position the CompaqBaan Solution as a key component of a company’s strategic planning process.
Once team buy-in was achieved, the CompaqBaan solution was positioned as the strategic and preferred information technology solution in the minds of their target customers.


Businesses have become increasingly reliant on technology and systems like email, database, and web services. As a result, the issues and problems with this technology can quickly become priority #1. When you need help solving a critical technology problem, consider Network Partners.
When needing help solving a marketing opportunity, Network Partners picked NextLevel Thinking. Network Partners needed help marketing several of their technology solutions through a very large third-party sales force. The answer to this often-complicated communication task was the creation of electronic brochures that clearly explained the value of these offerings.


SwiftLease was created to help businesses quickly find the perfect space, including small-office, short-term, and flexible lease options in the Greater Houston Area. The idea was to offer a quick, efficient solution to your office needs that fit the requirements of your growing business.
We developed a corporate identity and a playful character that would show the ups and downs of trying to lease office space…as well as what SwiftLease can do for you.

a race car driver. As a child, I had a desire to become a race car driver even though I didn’t have any particular exposure or introduction to the sport. It was just an early gut feeling I had. For some reason I felt like I knew it would be something I would enjoy!
That feeling of getting to work on something you enjoy and are passionate about, and when finished, feeling like you did a good job. That just makes me want to do more!
don’t take any wooden nickels.
I don’t see how you can answer anything other than flying. It would solve so many of life’s issues. There are obvious benefits like efficient travel and scenic views.
But think about this. It is a common thing to “go for a walk” to relieve some stress but how lame is that in comparison to someone who can take a couple minutes to “go for a flight”. Flying would provide a sense of joy and freedom that would allow me to forget about all of my current problems, allowing me to reset and return with a new focus. I’d never be stressed again.
A race car driver in my early ages, and then I shifted towards basketball when I realized I was pretty good. I wanted to go to the NBA. I was also inspired by Dude Perfect growing up, to the point where me and my friends had a YouTube Channel making trick shot videos. I wanted to be like them.
Make yourself available!
Probably chocolate chip cookies. I eat them pretty much every night and I don’t think I will be able to do that much longer.
Play golf, tennis, listen to music, be with friends and family, eat good food. I am a person who enjoys having hobbies, so I am always open to trying new things.
We listen before we lead. Those who give the best advice are the ones who listen well!

a psychologist!
My absolute best days are when we’re able to help a client see their business differently. It’s usually at this point when things begin to take off and the effectiveness of what we can do for them begins to be realized both internally and externally in a very powerful way.
don’t get too high on the highs and too low on the lows. This advice was from my high school basketball coach.
I think it would be so cool to be able to fly. The different vantage points would be amazing and the ability to get places quickly would be awesome.
As a young fella, I probably wanted to be the usual things like a policeman, fireman, etc. But from high school on, I have always wanted to own my own business. In graduate school, my buddies were sure that I would make a living helping people/organizations see things from a different perspective. They were right!
Be prepared to deliver absolute excellence, while being part of a very caring, results-oriented, drama-free work environment.
There are a whole bunch of food categories that I wish had zero calories. If I had to pick one, it would definitely be tortilla chips with guacamole, chili con queso and/or salsa.
My favorite thing to do, by far, is to hang out with my family…Tracy, Erin, Trey and Kyle. My peeps!
I think giving the client what they need, not just what they want really defines NextLevel Thinking. We have seen some extraordinary results from those clients that have really embraced this collaborative approach.
