Keeter Consulting Fun Fact:

The light bulb in the Keeter Consulting Logo is intended to connote innovation and new ideas, but it's also a nod to my father, who used a similar light bulb for his own small business, Keeter Electric. After over five years as a small business consultant, and fifteen years as a Rehabilitation Counselor before that and a degree in Advertising from MSU, I still credit the experience of watching and working with my dad as he launched and grew his own company as the best training I've ever received for this kind of work.
