Slopeside Technology

What Slopeside Technology does

Slopeside Technology is a privately held IT consulting and implementation company founded in 2018 by Brian Brown and based in Crested Butte, Colorado. The firm operates as a one-person professional services practice (1-10 employees) providing technology advisory, deployment, and ongoing support to small and mid-sized businesses across multiple U.S. states.

The company's core offerings fall into four categories: customer acquisition technologies (website design and development, pay-per-click advertising, tracking and analytics, CRM implementation, email campaigns, process automation); network infrastructure (wired networks using Cisco switches, HPE Aruba Wi-Fi including high-density conference deployments, SonicWall firewalls, VoIP phones, and VLAN segmentation); cloud services (Office 365, G-Suite, OneDrive, Synology NAS setup); and remote computer support via TeamViewer. Slopeside holds Microsoft, Dell, and Ingram Micro partnerships that validate its technical credentials and supply chain access.

The business model is professional services revenue on a custom quote basis, with free initial evaluations and proposals as the lead-generation mechanism. The go-to-market motion is direct, relationship-based selling emphasizing long-term client relationships over short-term profit, and a deliberate anti-vendor-lock-in stance (services are set up in the customer's own name). The company serves customers across at least 14 states including California, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Ohio, Texas, Washington D.C., and Wisconsin, spanning verticals such as landscaping, science/research, radio, retail, distilling, and childcare.
