My philosophy in life is related to a well known neural science idea that was actually made famous long before by President Roosevelt.
“Reality is Perception” This applies in business far more than most think. It is greatly tied to the concept that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
If you translate that to business realm it could be worded “value is in the eye of the buyer.”
No matter how much money your company spends tracking everything, generating reports and spending millions on your in-house data science team, if they can’t turn all that effort into tangible value “in the eyes of customers,” it was all for nothing.
I specialize in the “practical implementation” of what’s called “narrow AI.” Basically, I simply monetize artificial intelligence in ways that both save money and have the potential to generate enormous revenue.
In heavy duty Search Engine Optimization, I quickly became an expert in copy writing psychology, leading me to an obsession with natural language processing & deep learning “neural net” machine intelligence.

Although you are reading my resume, this is my current consulting business. Most companies I have applied to work for, eventually turn it into a consulting contract or find another way to 1099 me and not provide expensive benefits and all of that.
It works out though. I can conduct all business form this entity and reap all the benefits and also disadvantages of being responsible for taxes, health insurance and the rest.

Noreen Rucinski
Business Texter June 3, 2014, Noreen reported to David at Business Texter Inc.
All of the doubters and naysayers were put to rest when David was allowed to flex his expertise when it comes to search engine marketing and optimization.
”We can’t afford this,” they said. Balancing the marketing budget, David did it, and did it successfully. Taking a freshly minted website, David can turn it into gold in a time span that typical SEO experts wouldn’t even attempt to try. Having a knowledge of the ins-and-outs of the global search industry and the ability to put that knowledge to use is what makes David stand out far and above any web developers I have ever met.
”This won’t work,” experts said. It did.

I have known David Johnston since 2008 and have had the great pleasure and opportunity to work both under him as a subordinate as well as alongside him as an equal partner on several projects. Therefore, I can attest to both his leadership and teamwork capabilities as well as his work ethic and professionalism.
Much of my own success I credit to David Johnston and the experience he has acquired taught and shared with me over the years I have known him. David possesses an extraordinary ability which is nothing short of genius when it comes to online marketing and search engine optimization. He has always been on the cutting edge of current trends and at times a true pioneer. This gives David and those who he’s working with, a savory advantage in today’s rapidly changing online marketplace.

From my time working with David I observed that he has a clear and specific vision of what his web customers desire in terms of web news content. He gives clear and specific feedback on how I needed to revise and improve my news articles so he and the company may best provide the product that their customers are seeking. At the end of the day running a successful company I have observed boils down to three things: 1) having a clear understanding and vision on what your clients’ needs are; 2) Identifying and obtaining the people and resources you need to serve your customers; 3) Clearly and proactively communicating to your employees what is needed or is missing from a product so you can complete delivery of meeting the product needs of your customers.
David Johnston is an excellent manager.
