Services Available From API Evangelist

I've had a lot of questions lately about how I make money, and how companies can either support what I do, and / or take advantage of services I offer. So I wanted to take some time to outline the services I offer to support the space, and make ends meet--while also keeping things moving forward in a healthy and positive way.  

Here are a few of the common areas I help my clients across multiple industries.  Let me know if they are of interest to you.
