About Shepherd Advisors

Services

Shepherd Advisors focuses on three main areas: Business Building Services to help small to mid-size companies build their businesses, Clean Tech Deployment Services to help clients investigate and choose effective clean tech solutions to deploy in their facilities, and Market Building Services to help governmental entities, non-profit organizations and large businesses to build markets and economies by supporting entrepreneurial companies and bringing forward intelligent and innovative clean technology solutions.

Team Experience

The Shepherd team has more than 80 years of combined experience in business management and the promotion of innovation in clean- and high-tech businesses.  We have launched operations and hired executives and managers.  We've developed business strategies and watched them change. We have designed and executed marketing campaigns that matched up buyers and sellers of clean technologies.

We've also designed and built demonstrations of clean technologies to educate potential users. We have promoted new products to architects, engineers, and contractors. We've planned conferences and other events around clean technologies. We have helped to specify full clean technology systems for purchase.

The Shepherd team has not only been at the table during many Market Building discussions among governments, private businesses and non-profit organizations, but we have also been on the street working directly with small businesspeople, buyers, and stakeholders to build markets and communities.

Knowing that planning and execution go hand-in-hand, we strive to deliver balanced analysis and realistic plans to support your objectives. We don't give you something to read -- we give you something to use and do.
