• What is John Beattie's job title?

  John Beattie is a
  Serial entrepreneur, I designed and built Guvnor.com, the leading website for the UK music industry, currently host to over 150 UK music stores. Guvnor.com was the winner of the prestigious ISI/Inteforum National eBusiness Award, presented by then-minister for eBusiness, Patricia Hewitt. I also founded and developed the Leisuredome, one of the very first transactional retail websites in the UK (subsequently purchased by Guvnor.com). I designed and built MI-Store, a truly revolutionary retail management system. I'm an entertaining and hopefully educational speaker, and have been a guest presenter at the World Internet Center at Stanford University, California, and at numerous speaking engagements in Silicon Valley. I've also lectured extensively on eBusiness for local authorities, companies and Business Links. I'm a technologist, a dreamer, a businessman, and an achiever. I don't fit into anyone's box - I'm a happy geek, a gifted communicator, a driven entrepreneur, and whatever else I need to be to get the job done. I'm equally at home in the lab and the board room, although I do usually shower before meeting the board. I've consulted for some of the world's largest companies, including British Telecom, Standard Bank, Scottish Radio Holdings, and others. I'm a pretty good salesman, and a damned fine technologist (even if I do say so myself). Most of the time I restrict myself to talking only about things I know, which usually helps with my credibility. Great technology is developed by people who are not afraid to admit that they don't know the answer, and great technology is the goal I aspire to above all others. When I'm not working, I'm a fanatically keen fly-fisherman and an intermittent photographer (some of my work is at www.pbase.com/johnbeat/landscapes). In earlier times, I worked as a sound engineer, producer and recording studio owner. Great fun, but we all have to grow up eventually. Specialties: Software design, strategic information consultancy, .NET programming, Cold Fusion programming, Web design, Internet marketing, retail management systems, warehousing systems. Terms
