JC Consulting Company Background
JC Consulting (JCC) is a digital development and consulting business. The founder, Jacqueline Cabrero, started the business in the mid-1990s when the Internet became publicly available. Jacqueline grew the business from a sole proprietorship that built static web pages for small businesses to a firm with more than 20 employees. JCC’s services range from building websites and web apps to back-end database conversions and programming.
Initially, Jacqueline kept track of her clients and project bids in a spreadsheet. As the company grew, she used a homegrown project estimator program to bid new projects. Jacqueline has now determined that the company’s recent growth means it is no longer feasible to use those programs to maintain its data.
