Biography

Frank M. DeBenedetto has spent the past two decades passionately helping business owners navigate the complex world of technology.

After watching one of his classmates reinstall the operating system, he enamored with computers and their impact on our lives. Frank has always been determined to keep pace with modern technology and, today, that path has led him to become a highly sought after expert in the area of cloud computing.

He became life and health insurance licensed and passed the Series 7, 63 and 24 securities licensing exams. Before finally shifting his educational focus towards technology, he earned two designations from the American College of Financial Services – Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) and Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC). After a period of selling, Frank found his niche in helping other financial services professionals utilize technology to grow their businesses. Soon after, his entrepreneurial spirit took over and he left the industry to fully concentrate his efforts on building a technology-consulting firm.
