Leslie Jolley and Rob Landsberry have carved out careers almost exclusively in the Media and Advertising industries, working on all aspects of technology over many years. They're now working as independent consultants in this space under the banner of Two Heads Solutions, and so their two heads are now at your service.

Do you have too many great ideas for improved processes and systems, and not enough resources to help you bring them to life?
Are you concerned about costs in the technology area, but not sure how they can be controlled?
Have you considered off shoring some of your work to help with costs, but have concerns over some horror stories with off shore projects?
Are you lacking enough really experienced people to do the analysis required to deliver successful projects?
Are you looking for someone independent who can make sure that the technology companies and consultants you depend on are doing the right thing for you at the right cost?

Have you got some ideas for projects, but you're just not sure if they're viable, or if they would even be cost effective?
Do you have some projects that have stalled or seem to be taking forever to complete?
Do you want to meet with people who've been heavily involved in your industry for many years, and just kick around ideas that will help you operate more efficiently and cost effectively?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then let Leslie and Rob know and they'd be happy to meet with you to discuss how they could assist. Leslie and Rob can work together or separately, depending on the nature of a project. And they're happy to work on projects of any size.
