About Tech Grandad
My first job was as a Computer Engineer for a large American computer company. I was hired because of my troubleshooting skills and ability to work out how things work.
I spent 15 - 20 years on the front line working on computers that were in rooms the size of small warehouses.
In the mid-80s I changed to sales and spent the rest of my career selling hardware and software technology solutions. I have sold to large banks, insurance companies and Government Departments in New Zealand and Australia and also small businesses here in Christchurch.
Since then I have always kept up-to-date with technology.
​
I have always liked helping people and have been a member of Rotary International for over 20 years.
​
After finishing my technology sales career, I started Denhard Creative to make use of my unique blend of business, sales, marketing and technical skills. The most popular services have been:
• Website Creation
• Search Engine Optimisation
• Copywriting
• Digital marketing strategy and deployment
• Content creation
• Growing and managing customer databases
Now, I have launched Tech Grandad to help as many people as I can with their technology.
​
Many older people have quite modern technology (Smart TVS, Smart Phones, Laptops, Tablets, Sky, Streaming Services etc) but they oftern only use about 5% of their functionality.
​
They don't know what they don't know. That is where I come in.
