The story of Service Omni™ is really about a group of guys who all share a dream.. well, in reality, it started with one guy's vision and slowly became our collective dream as each new member joined the team.

The original vision was simple: I wanted to create an online resource where I could find rated local services that would come to me to take care of my time consuming personal tasks. What I really wanted was someone to free up my schedule so I could go out and have more fun with my wife, family and friends.

I, like most of you, found myself inundated with too many things on my plate. But I, like most, made time to get my chores done.

Daily runs to the bank, down to the post office, drop off dry cleaning, walking the dog, trimming the hedges, watering the lawn, painting the kitchen, personal bookkeeping, cleaning the house, installing wifi networks, (did I mention picking up the dry cleaning?) and getting the car washed all had me clamoring for a taste of more free time.

The only problem was, as my personal responsibilities grew, something had to give. What happened next is what happens with most people. I spent less quality time with my wife, our family our friends.. and definitely less time having fun!

The cataclysmic point came late one Friday. I was buried deep in work when my wife called. She asked me to get my dirty car washed since we were meeting our friends for dinner that night.

Begrudgingly, I was sitting at the car wash, watching the clock and waiting my turn, thinking of the unfinished work I left behind (and piling up) and I said to myself, there has to be a better way!

There should be an easy way to find people who will come do all this for me. But how can I find these people in my crazy time challenged life? More importantly, how can I find someone honest, trusted, reliable and not to mention, reasonably priced?

Service Omni™ is born:

That's when the concept of Service Omni™ first hit me.

After spending weeks writing variations of the business concept, I made some calls. I pitched the idea to a handful of close friends, all highly respected and successful entrepreneurs. Before I knew it, our team came together.

Today, the Service Omni™ group is comprised of highly accomplished professionals with various backgrounds; starting with:

• Steve Rosenthal, the high level attorney and operations expert to;
• Ross Nordin, the Michigan MBA, biz dev and numbers guru to;
• Jim Reed, the chief architect and technology genius, and rounding it all out with;
• Brayton Fisher, the pedigreed engineer and the person we all refer to as .the really smart guy.

An incredibly talented management team!

Our mission was to build a free portal that focuses more on local service providers who bring their services to the customers home or office. We added features that allow consumers to search rated providers, view video features, interact with providers and their customers, schedule and pay for services . all online. Then we envisioned building an online community around it and Voila!, Service Omni™ was born.

Our goal is to offer service providers the ability to create an online business profile and immediately present it to the Service Omni™ community . for free! No expensive website, merchant account or costly internet marketing is required! Service Omni™ provides local businesses with highly targeted customers who are looking for the company's services.

Omni Tools™

Omni Tools™ was born out of the necessity for local providers to interact with online customers in a more useful way. We created Omni Tools™ for providers of all types with features geared towards helping providers manage customer information better as well as to utilize innovative marketing tools to promote their business within the community ecosystem.

Thus began the journey almost 2 years ago that has culminated in a service we believe will become the pre-eminent resource for local businesses and consumers like you and me.

We hope you will become a part of our ever growing community and keep coming back to see who's new in your Service Omni™ neighborhood. Oh, and don't forget to check in on our blog and feel free to add your comments if you feel we can serve you better. We truly value your input.
