Company Info
We make your company functional. We put you in control. Because your business is only as good as that control.
Neural Tornado brings more than 25 years of experience in business, Information Technology, Internet solutions, and graphics and marketing, to offer our signature services at prices geared for the new economy. In other words, the very best services, for the very best prices, at a time when price is everything.
HOW WE DIFFER
1. Integrative Function
No other company walks you through every step of creating, streamlining, or redefining your business, and does it all through a single, integrative resource. Our staff will take you from writing a business plan through incorporating, through meeting your IT hardware and software needs, right through establishing your web presence with follow-up marketing. For enterprise level companies that already have the preceeding in place, we offer custom solutions that enhance every aspect of production and profitability.
- You can use our full suite of services to develop your company from the ground up.
- Or you can select only those components that meet your needs.

2. Educational Strategies
We are proud to be the only company dedicated to de-mystifying the corporate, information technology, and web process. We not only build. We build with you. And we teach you how to keep on building.
3. Our professionals
The core team, headed by Dr. Calo, consists of seasoned professionals each with over fifteen years of experience in their area of expertise. Our project managers, likewise, are accredited specialists in their areas. Together, we comprise a brain-and-expertise fund that no one else can match. And while some of our techie gurus may sound like they're from another planet, the rest of us are sane, courteous, and committed to ensuring your satisfaction.
THE PRACTICE
Rich Calo, PhD, founder and president of Neural Tornada, has a thing for education. And why shouldn't he? As a university professor and a business developer who has worked internationally to restructure businesses and institutions, he firmly believes that your company is only as good as your control of its information. That's why at Neural Tornado our job isn't so much to build your website, create your intranet, help with your business development, or aid in streamlining operations, as it is to show you how everything works so that you can help yourself.
THE TITLES
Concepts Engineers. Information Architects. Business developers. Performance Engineers. Systems Engineers. Web developers. Graphic artists. What are these?
A concepts engineer takes those ideas you can't quite put into words, and puts them into words, then links them with similar ideas until you have a working whole.
An information architect builds on the work of the concepts engineer by laying out the ideas in a way that's obvious and accessible to everyone.
A business developer takes the former two, and turns them into a profitable business entity.
A Systems Engineer complements the business developer on the IT side, again, to turn your ideas into a profitable business entity.
A Performance Engineer streamlines your human resources to increase your company's productivity and turn that into profitability.
A web developer transforms that profitable business entity into a digital entity that can be broadcast to the entire human race.
And a graphic artist embues that digital entity with life.
Simple enough?
Because these are the folk who comprise our core, and whose expertise we put at your fingertips.
