The Super 
Story
Skills and passion for creating great websites that generate real returns
How and why we created Web-O-Matic. First and foremost we are a group of entrepreneurs and business owners. Our past experiences with marketing and web projects have left us frustrated. Our frustration got us thinking about a solution that would give small businesses not only a great website but a full web marketing solution-- without breaking the bank. Instead of just complaining about it, we set out to deliver our own resolution. Our research proved to us that we can deliver affordable custom designed websites and still include useful features like a content management system and marketing tools.That's when we got really excited.
Most affordable website solutions are useless. The designs are awful, not optimized for search engines and very rarely produce any results. Our big breakthrough moment was when we realized that if we built an application to manage the complicated development process, and harnessed the talent of independent web designers, we could reduce the time and cost of delivering a GREAT website. After several months of prototyping and researching technologies and options, we came up with a solution-- we call it Web-o-Matic!
Now building a website is faster and smoother than ever before.

Hi. I'm Chris Merrill, the CEO
Christopher Merrill
Chief executive officer
Simply put, Chris loves Boston based start-ups and small businesses. As a seasoned entrepreneur (3-4 win loss record, but who is counting?) he has lived the full-life cycle of a business owner. In 2000 Chris founded Thrive Networks, a leading provider of managed IT services subsequently acquired by Staples in 2006. With great intent, un-waivering passion and horrible time management skills Chris sets out to build exceptional products and services for companies to either increase revenue, reduce expenses, or improve quality of life. If he isn't staring at a wall thinking of how to improve Web-o-matic, he is reading or snowboarding at Loon Mountain.

More than a technical superstar, Chad has the highest utility of any person we have worked with. Having shared in the building of Thrive Networks, (Where he not only put up with Chris - they also named an annual employee of the year award after him) he developed the entire service platform and technical team. As our operational ninja, Chad is responsible for defining our service offering and building the systems and processes that make it all work. And he is crazy on a grill.
