Eric is a fantastic team leader and motivator making him the perfect CEO.

CEOs lead by example, a philosophy that Eric epitomises. He works, harder, longer than anyone and achieves perceivable and quantifiable results efficiently.

In terms of SEO, especially - Eric is doubtlessly a world class powerhouse.

Eric loves the Online space and his enthusiasm and good spirit is contagious. He's a friendly and bubbly presence that creates tons of positive energy in an Online start-up environment.

Eric is a powerful networker that regularly connects the right people with the right opportunities and in doing so, creates a powerful ecosystem for shared success.

I would recommend Eric in any business development capacity.

Eric was a great co-founder and I would certainly welcome the opportunity to work with him again. He maintains his finger on the pulse of the market and can spot opportunities a mile a away. His was pivotal in helping me raise my first ever round of angel funding which really allowed us to accelerate our business together. Of Eric's best character traits, I believe his most valuable are his loyalty, integrity & reliability. I highly recommend him as a business partner.

I have been working with Eric for the last year, having started as the company's HR Manager, and now the COO of CrowdTech Holdings. Eric is one of the most interesting people I've worked with. He's inspirational, driven, ambitious, global-thinking, and fast paced. I have learnt a great deal from him and have seen him constantly look after members of the team, nurture people, guide them in the right way and give them ample opportunity for growth.

Eric is extremely social, a fast talker, a quick learner and has very broad interests in and outside of the work environment. His bookshelf is full of interesting reads, he's constantly forwarding great articles, suggesting ways of improving the business and our processes. Overall, Eric is not someone that you will forget meeting!

Eric is a great leader and innovator; he is open, honest and truly values his team. Eric can walk into a room and effortlessly motivate change with just one sentence.

He is one of the hardest working people I know! When he sets his mind to something he goes after it with all his will. He is intelligent and infects others with his drive and passion.

He has achieved so much already and it truly is an honor to be working along side such an amazing professional.

I have been fortunate to work with Eric and help develop the first crowdsourcing social network known as evly (evly.com). Eric is one of the most focused individuals I know. His attention to detail, innovative thinking within a team and keen business eye, especially in the monetization of internet based business models, helps motivate others to push the boundaries of what can be achieved. I still seek his advice on concepts and models I am looking to implement in my own business and would not hesitate to work with Eric again.

If you ever get a chance to meet with Eric, listen and take notes!

Eric is a great boss and CEO. He is very considerate of his colleagues, leads by example by working at least just as hard and long hours as the rest of his team. Eric is always approachable and willing to consider other's opinions and input, even when they come from the lowest tiers within the company. He is open, easy-going and approachable both as a person and a boss, encourages and supports continuous learning within the company, and is always working towards improvement in everything he and his colleagues do.

Eric has a wealth of knowledge about SEO marketing, social media, internet technology and entrepreneurship and start-up challenges and processes, and is always willing to share and expand this

I have had the pleasure of working with Eric over a period of several years in a number of ventures.

In every instance Eric has demonstrated exemplary skills at implementation and creative business skill application.

He is a strong communicator and has always been quickly able to garner the support and respect of hiss colleagues by not only putting in massive effort over and beyond the mark but by his consistant attitude, high skill set and creative strategies.

It is my sincere aspiration (and I would imagine that of any entrepreneur or startup enthusiast) that I will have the opportunity to work with this sort of caliber of a person for a long time to come.
