Jim Sacks

CEO & Founder at ADVANTAGE SERVICES INC

Jim's large and small business savvy and yachting familiarity makes him the ideal project leader to redesign and implement your website goals. His ability to interpret a business owner's needs has steered many clients to achieve more sophisticated business tools within reasonable budget parameters.

Jim has an entrepreneurial drive that energizes his activities with each new venture. In the 1970s and 80s his intense international salesmanship skills were a factor in propelling Sacks Industries to the top tier of textile manufacturing supply. A shift to South Florida in the early 1980s focused his family's attention on the pleasures of yachting, culminating in the construction their 160' CRN motoryacht Azzura. Not content to just sip early-retirement martinis on deck, Jim's father, Edward Sacks, established the The Sacks Group and recruited Jim to the professional yacht & charter management arena. When Jim's attention later shifted to the travel industry, his company (Advantage Travel Services) achieved a sales volume ranking of fourth in the state of Florida in only three years time.

As the PC industry began to boom, Jim became fascinated with all aspects of this new technology culture. A gadget-lover and one-finger typist, he sought to accomplish routine tasks in the most efficient manner so he liquidated his travel agency in 1993 and conducted computer-training seminars for local entrepreneurs. The seeds of this early effort have now blossomed into a company that is setting the standard for premier web design, network installation and on-site support in South Florida and beyond.
